Justice Jackson Complains First Amendment
Is ‘Hamstringing’ Feds’ Censorship Efforts

Original Article

Free speech is on trial at the Supreme Court, but Justice Kentanji Brown Jackson is no fan of the First Amendment. The Constitution, you see, limits the government. But leftists want unlimited government — which is why they hate the Constitution. During Monday’s oral arguments for Murthy v. Missouri, formerly known as Biden v. Missouri, Jackson claimed to oppose any ruling in favor of Americans’ constitutional right to free speech if it limited the government’s ability to censor that speech via Big Tech. “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

This from someone who swore to protect and uphold our Constitution? Just another Fani who lied while under oath?

Isn't "hamstringing government censorship" the exact purpose of the 1st Amendment?

The FBI must face a lawsuit filed by a Muslim man who has since been removed from the bureau’s “no-fly list,” the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on March 19. “The government has failed to demonstrate that this case is moot,” Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote in a unanimous ruling. “While the government’s representation that it will not relist Mr. Fikre may mean that his past conduct is not enough to warrant relisting, that does not speak to whether the government might relist him if he engages in the same or similar conduct in the future,” he added later.

When Atlanta Judge Scott McAfee ruled recently in the Fani Willis decision TechnoFog noted, “Judge McAfee rules that only one potential liar can prosecute the case – but not both potential liars. Instead of curing the “appearance of impropriety”, it allows it to continue. If Nathan Wade goes, why can Fani Willis stay? McAfee doesn’t give an answer.” To chase down this judicial question, lawyers representing President Trump and seven co-defendants, collectively accused of RICO conspiracy, today asked McAfee to issue a certificate of immediate review of his order denying disqualification of Fani Willis. The certificate, if issued, would allow the defendants to seek an immediate appeal of the order.

The Biden administration had an extensive communication pipeline into Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google, YouTube and various subsidiary tech companies where instructions, the government says “encouragement”, were/was given about the removal of content critical of the government position, and the removal of content providers – American citizens.

A new capital would signify a new beginning for the nation. Everyone who has seen the play Hamilton knows that the nation’s capital was moved to the present site in the District of Columbia due to a dinner-table bargain in 1790 between Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson. Hamilton needed Jefferson’s support in Congress to win approval for federal assumption of revolutionary war debts; in return, Jefferson wanted Hamilton’s support in moving the capital from New York City to a location nearer to the population and geographical center of the country, later carved out between the states of Maryland and Virginia.

"Outlaw your car" sounds like such an outrageous phrase, and technically speaking, it isn't true — but only barely. What practical difference is there between outlawing something, and regulating it out of existence? That's exactly what the EPA intends to do this week with strict new rules going forward against gas- and diesel-powered cars and light trucks. Expected as soon as Wednesday, the Biden EPA "is poised to finalize emissions rules that will effectively require a certain percentage — as much as two-thirds by 2032 — of new cars to be all-electric," according to Inside EVs.

The Justices of the Supreme Court make their living with words. They read them, they write them, they speak them, they listen to them, and they rule with them. We currently have a Justice who uses words very poorly. At her confirmation hearing before the Senate, Justice Jackson was asked to give a definition of “woman.” That’s a legitimate question, since many legal matters depend on whether a given person is a woman or a man. Her answer was: “I can’t. Not in this context. I’m not a biologist.”

The three liberal justices publicly dissented from the court’s order clearing the way for the controversial statute, SB4.

The Biden administration had urged the justices to block the law, passed by Texas’s Republican-controlled legislature last year, asserting it is an “unprecedented intrusion into federal immigration enforcement.”
