On June 26, 2024, the United States Supreme Court took the side of the Biden regime in a dispute with Republican-controlled states over the degree that the federal government can go to fight polemical social posts concerning topics that span the Wuhan virus all the way to election integrity.
In a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court overturned lower-court rulings that took the side of Louisiana, Missouri and other parties in their assertion that federal officials jaw-boned social media platforms to unconstitutionally censor conservative points of view.
Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote the majority opinion for the court that the states and other parties did not possess the legal right, or standing, to file a lawsuit. Justices Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Clarence Thomas offered dissenting opinions.
The states contended that White House communications staffers, the surgeon general, the FBI and the US cybersecurity agency are among those who placed “unrelenting pressure” to impose changes in online content on social media platforms.
