She doesn’t even know what the hell she’s talking about she’s just a communist dope with no respect for the Constitution.
If I want to get on my soapbox during the worst pandemic ever to hit earth and scream “don’t take the medicine! “ that’s my God given right to Free Speech and your only way to counter me is to tell people I’m wrong.
Just like with every other single example anyone can think of.

To: Tell It Right
If the SCOTUS members do any kind of deliberations amongst each other, I hope that senior Justice Clarence Thomas SCHOOLS THAT MARXIST (almost cussed right here)!

I haven't made it through the entire transcript yet, but Alito took some serious whacks at the government's attorney early on.

In other words, The Constitution is antithetical to tyranny.

Hooda thunkit?

The Wright brothers would be in jail and Langley’s plane would still be burried in the banks of the river running through the swamp.

No government has ever concerned itself with censoring falsehoods.

The only thing any government has ever tried to censor is the truth.

That is exactly what the 1A is supposed to do, "hamstring" the government.
And the 2A and all the others.
Limit what the government can do. Not us.

“Justice Jackson:
“I understood our First Amendment jurisprudence to require heightened scrutiny of government restrictions of speech, but not necessarily a total prohibition when you’re talking about a compelling interest of the government to ensure, for example, that the public has accurate information in the context of a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic.””

No doubt, she is referring to accurate information from the government like... the vaccines are safe and effective, the Antifa riots were mostly peaceful, white supremacy is the main threat to “our democracy”, Jan. 6 was a violent insurrection, and there was no election fraud/theft in 2020.

Yeah... we really want to ensure that that kind of government “information” continues unchallenged, Ketanji. And trust me when I say... We, the People have nothing but complete trust in anything you have to say on the matter, or in any ruling you will make on these matters. Honest.

Nobody’s hamstringing ANYBODY.

AS THE FOUNDERS DECIDED...THE ANSWER TO A REPORTED “FACT”, MUST BE ANSWERED BY “WORDS, PROVEN FACTS, EMPIRICAL DATA, TESTIMONY...THEN...MORE AND MORE W O R D S.

THAT IS FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND WHAT IS MEANT BY ...MORE SPEECH...

But, they don’t have time to do that...that takes WORK to present the TRUE fact...

AND THIS, GIRLS AND BOYS, IS WHAT THE DIMOCRAPS DO NOT DO WELL.

What they do well is keep repeating and accusing the opponent of what they are doing..

THEY ARE MASTERS AT DOING THAT.

But not with me and many others who have figured out the SCAM.

"First Amendment ‘Hamstringing’ Feds’ Censorship Efforts"

Dear Kunta Kinte Jackson, it's a feature, not a bug.

"My biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways in the most important time periods,” Jackson told Louisiana Solicitor General Benjamin Aguiñaga.

He should have just said that's the point of the first amendment, and sat down.
