Appeals Court Finds Biden Admin Violated First Amendment By Encouraging Censorship​

A federal appeals court partially affirmed a lower court’s finding on Friday that Biden administration officials violated the First Amendment by coercing social media companies to censor speech.

The Fifth Circuit affirmed a lower court’s judgement that the White House, Surgeon General, CDC and FBI violated the First Amendment while finding that “the district court erred in finding that the NIAID Officials, CISA Officials, and State Department Officials likely violated Plaintiffs’ First Amendment rights.” Yet it found the injunction, issued by District of Louisiana Judge Terry A. Doughty in July, was “vague and broader than necessary.”

“Ultimately, we find the district court did not err in determining that several officials—namely the White House, the Surgeon General, the CDC, and the FBI—likely coerced or significantly encouraged social-media, platforms to moderate content, rendering those decisions state actions,” the court wrote. “In doing so, the officials likely violated the First Amendment.”

Doughty granted a broad injunction barring President Joe Biden’s administration from collusion with pro-censorship nonprofit organizations, in addition to social media companies, in the free speech lawsuit Missouri v. Biden. The injunction found that government officials likely violated the First Amendment by suppressing protected speech, and the order states that government actors are barred from “collaborating, coordinating, partnering, switchboarding, and/or jointly working with” research groups and projects that advocate for censorship.

Joe Biden and his administration's eagerness to channel Orwell's Ministry of Truth and create government-run corporate propaganda centers designed to asphyxiate our fundamental right to free speech has been tossed in the toilet where it belongs.

In this day and age both corporations and the government have an obligation to minimize misinformation. At this point whether or not it was Russia doesn't matter. Hunter's laptop was misinformation.

This is a lie.

The 1st Amendment trumps any idea that the government can censor or restrict protected speech. This is the point of the opinion by the 5th circuit when they upheld the district court's injunction.

Now that the 5th circuit has said that the involvement of the governmental departments has turn social media into "government actors" I'm wondering when those who had content deleted, were deplatformed, or shadow banned start to sue. Section 230 isn't going to protect the media giant(s) in this, they're "government actors" and as such are just as liable as the government would be for their unlawful acts.

Just because some judges made a decision based on the letter of the law just tells us once again how dated the Constitution is.

You have really lost your mind now haven’t you?

Nope, the Constitution is so out of date that we'd be better off scraping the damn thing and starting off. If we follow the letter of the law I want to be able to buy an Abrams Tank. Grenades. Mines. And that's ignoring that the way the Constituion is written we are in violation trying to stop foriegn nations from obtaining nukes. I'm not saying we should at least discourage Iran but that doesn't mean we aren't in violation.

Get rid of your right to freedom of speech and all men are created equal as well. Add a clause that when the whims of society change we need to update the constitution so it’s a living breathing document to reflect the popular causes of the day. It will likely take 100 years for anyone to agree on a new constitution. Start now and by the time there is agreement, it will be time to change it.

Then corporations and government should shut the hell up since they are responsible for most of the misinformation.

Fixed for you. RESIDENT Joe Biden. He has no idea too often what the fuck is going on to be the real president. Someone has their hand up his ass working him like a puppet.

Government isn't responsible for most, that is corporations intentionally or not. I'm forgiving of genuine mistakes. However at this point we KNOW Fox was flat out lying. Collectively they are just as guilty for J6 as Trump, MTG, and Bobert and that is not okay.

“In doing so, the officials likely violated the First Amendment.”

Operative word is “likely.” That’s a lot of wiggle room to ultimately find there’s no there there

He is the elected President, that is a fact. Do I believe he is in control of the country? Not a snow ball's chance in hell. Geezus man he can't even complete a sentence without stumbling all over himself. It is not a speech impediment it is a mental deficiency whether TIAs, stroke, dementia, or Alzheimer's. But the man is not right, he isn't as sharp mentally as he was during the presidential race and his wife should be embarrassed for propping him up like this.

And that's what determines his title.

Do I believe he is in control of the country?

He does. There's no belief needed.

Not a snow ball's chance in hell. Geezus man he can't even complete a sentence without stumbling all over himself. It is not a speech impediment it is a mental deficiency whether TIAs, stroke, dementia, or Alzheimer's. But the man is not right, he isn't as sharp mentally as he was during the presidential race and his wife should be embarrassed for propping him up like this.

I get that you don't like him.

He's the President and has all the power of the title.

And CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, and NBC, all lied their asses off during the pandemic, the last presidential race, about the Biden corruption scandal, about hillary's corruption and destroying of evidence. So it goes on and on. That's why I don't pay attention to any of them anymore.

 

[TrailerHitch]

Yes, and I will remain. Too Fucking bad if you don't like it.

The companies that you listed if anything underplayed how bad the situation with Covid was. We probably wouldn't be in this situation if they had gone full out. There is no Biden corruption scandal, no Hillary scandal. So far as know no evidence existed to destroy. You not paying any attention to any of those companies is exactly why you're so lowly informed.

And you are just mimicking your party line. Nice work sheeple.

 

[Sean Renaud]

There is no party line on this save maybe avoid Fox and now News Max. But when your company lost nearly a billion dollars for mantaining the same lie for well over a year that sounds like good policy to me.

Since I watch no TV or streaming news you are barking up the wrong tree, yet again. No points awarded here.

Well you not watching any TV or Streaming news has zero to do with you having credible sources. The same people who own the TV own the news sites. They have the same motivations. Sell ad space. If anything streaming would be your best bet since a lot of those aren't owned by anybody and are small company. They aren't perfect mind you but the guys who run the TV channels are the same guys who run the Times.

Don't lie about not watching any TV, you very specifically left out Fox News and listed every "liberal" (if you can call them that and be honest at the same time which nobody can do, at least not and be informed) and left out the one major conservative main stream news company. That wasn't accidental.

I don't watch TV or streaming news, and I didn't mention FOX because you already did and it would have been redundant.

Ah, the "Oh you're a liar" game now. Excellent. You may be an ALT too. You all sound the same to me.

Stop the bullshit, you left it out because they are conservative. You'd be a lot more convincing if you weren't constantly lying. I'm an alt? That is hilarious. I've been here close to twenty years with thousands of posts.
