Doing the deep state’s bidding.

Everyone knows this happened.

Proving it is another thing.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday threw out claims that the Biden administration unlawfully coerced social media companies into removing contentious content.

_________________________________________________________

Actually Social Media companies were all too eager and happy to remove contentious content.

The Biden administration hardly need ask.

Headline is false. Standing was the issue and the plaintiff’s were all lumped under same umbrella.

not to “coerce or significantly encourage” social media companies to remove content the Biden administration considered misinformation.

As if any "suggestion" by the federal government...an entity which has total regulatory power over Big Tech....could ever not be coercive! If you believe that, I've got some swampland you might want to buy.

There’s AM, FM and shortwave broadcasting technology.

Terrible decision. Basically it’s unclear who, if anyone, has standing to sue when the gov jawbones a media outlet to stifle criticism, and it ignores the mountain of evidence presented showing censorship, as Alito points out.

“Standing.”

The ultimate in lawfare. Even if you have evidence, you don’t have a right to show it . . .

the FBI did the coercing on the behest of the oligarchy currently in control.

Again, Barret & Kavanaugh, the two “conservative” bleeding-heart wimp noodles that can’t see what’s driving the sinister agenda put right in front of their eyes. Shameful lot.

One can buy a $50 projector at Walmart and project Trump videos on your garage door after it gets dark.

Makes sense. The social media companies were just looking for political cover to do the things they already wanted to do. If the administration had prosecuted or issued regulations muzzling them, that would be justiciable. And in any case, if the social media companies had felt aggrieved, they could have sued. Facebook’s profits are in the tens of billions.

“Standing” again. This utterly absurd legal concept must be significantly revised. It is the root of 90% of the bad judgments coming out of all courts.

TwiX post by DC Draino:

There is a lot of doom and gloom about the 6-3 SCOTUS decision in Murthy v. Biden and how it impacts the 1st Amendment

I would like to quell some of those concerns

This decision reversed the injunction based on *standing*

SCOTUS said that without the plaintiffs having sufficient standing, they could not decide the case on the merits

The case is still allowed to proceed *on the merits* in lower federal courts as to whether the gov’t violated the plaintiff’s 1st Amendment right to free speech on social media

Long story short, this battle for free speech rights is NOT over and SCOTUS will likely get further involved down the road

So from now on one must assume what they read is a lie! What if Trump fires the current FBI and has his own FBI would the other side say it’s ok?

This nation is rapidly sliding towards a communist Marxist dictatorship government run by the DOJ, CIA and the FBI. It’s gonna come to a point that we are not going to need a president anymore. I cannot believe the Supreme Court rule in behalf of the untouchable FJB well oiled administration and his evil hordes of DC swamp creatures. You would think what they did to Thomas, Alito, Amy Barrett, and Kavanagh they would side with the first amendment. This is sickening and dangerous! We are losing rapidly our freedoms and seem our constitution is in its last gasps of life.

Justice Samuel Alito wrote a sharp dissent, joined by two other conservatives, Justice Clarence Thomas and Justice Neil Gorsuch.

So, Roberts, Kavanaugh, & Barret went with the liberals.
