Good grief.

Cite SPECIFICALLY in an opinion she signed onto what you disagree with her on.

Here’s one from Wednesday. Barrett wrote the majority opinion.

———

Justices side with Biden over government’s influence on social media content moderation

https://www.scotusblog.com/2024/06/justices-side-with-biden-over-governments-influence-on-social-media-content-moderation/#:~:text=The%20Supreme%20Court%20on%20Wednesday,standing%2C%20to%20bring%20their%20lawsuit.

Writing for the majority, Justice Amy Coney Barrett cited the lack of any “concrete link” between the restrictions that the plaintiffs complained of and the conduct of government officials – and in any event, she concluded, a court order blocking communication between government officials and social media companies likely would not have any effect on decision-making by those platforms, which can continue to enforce their policies.

Justice Samuel Alito dissented, in an opinion joined by Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch. Suggesting that the case could be “one of the most important free speech cases to reach” the Supreme Court “in years,” Alito would have ruled both that the plaintiffs had standing to bring their lawsuit and that “the White House coerced Facebook into censoring” at least one plaintiff’s speech.
