1917-1918: During WWI, President Wilson pushed through the Espionage and Sedition Acts, which criminalized speaking against US allies or for US enemies in wartime. These acts, much like Lincoln's suspension of Habeas Corpus, allowed the executive branch to assume broad powers in prosecuting those suspected as working against the government. They replicated a pattern of sacrificing freedom from the executive for security during wartime. (1 gen 1917 anni – 1 gen 1918 anni)
