If I am understanding this correctly, the lower court's injunction limited the government's access to social media. SCOTUS has now blocked that injunction and will not take the case up until next year. This is not good.

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans last month prohibited the White House, the Surgeon General’s Office, the F.B.I., and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from having practically any contact with the social media companies. It found that the Biden administration most likely overstepped the First Amendment by urging the major social media platforms to remove misleading or false content.

On Friday, the Supreme Court placed a temporary stay on the order until it decides the case. It also agreed to immediately take up the government’s appeal, meaning it will hear arguments and issue a ruling on the merits in its current term, which runs until the end of June.

Justices Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch dissented. 🤔

“Today,” Alito wrote in his dissent, a majority of the court, without undertaking a full review of the record and without any explanation, suspends the effect of the injunction until the court completes its review of this case, an event that may not occur until late in the spring of next year.”

This is when SCOTUS shouldn't hear a case after its been ruled by the lower court finding clear probable cause this Administration has abused its powers. With Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch dissenting to this case being heard, it sends chills up my spine. The variable is always Roberts..................

Frankly. Given this whole thing was supposedly about showing people the problems in the various institutions. And getting public support to completely rebuild them.

Personally to me at least. It’s starting to make a better argument for abolishing them outright and starting over from square one. It’s hard to make the argument that Congress hasn’t completely failed the people time and time again for decades if not longer. And if they failed their sole purpose for existence repeatedly. Then why should such a body continue to persist? The nostalgia for a time of Statesmen and Aristocratic Gentlemen long past? Of highbrow idealism? Tradition? Even when the Corruption of Congress wasn’t so readily apparent. They weren’t exactly known for being competent or well liked by the general public.

The Judicial Branch is more or less powerless without the backing of the Executive Branch. Or the backing of the Legislative Branch and by extension the implied backing of the State Governments.

And the Executive Branch is such a bureaucratic mess. That even the ostensible head of the Branch. The President of the United States can be hamstrung by the various agencies, departments, and groups underneath him. Should those individuals feel the desire or need to do so.

Start from square one with the Bill of Rights and build out from there.

Games, games and more games on the heels of a very important presidential election.

Just fk off already.

These MFers make top dollar, get the best of everything, a pension and inside trades so THEIR kin are sitting pretty, while We the People get treated like mushrooms once again - while trying to make ends meet in one of the most challenging times in history.

Your dollar ain't shit - but you're giving ours away like no tomorrow, inflation is stealing what we'd leave to our kids and y'all are a bunch of perverts. And here we are again - just one more pile of bs that you parade in front of our faces while you calculate the best time to do it for political reasons.

Stick the entire case of fudge rounds directly up your ass - sideways.

(But not Clarence - who's been pretty good so far)
