Supreme Court Rules 6-3 That Government Can Ask Social Media Companies to Remove Posts
Washington, DC...Argued March 18, 2024—Decided June 26, 2024. Under their longstanding content-moderation policies, social-media platforms have taken a range of actions to suppress certain categories of speech, including speech they judge to be false or misleading. In 2020, with the outbreak of COVID–19, the platforms announced that they would enforce these policies against users who post false or misleading content about the pandemic. The platforms also applied misinformation policies during the 2020 election season. During that period, various federal officials regularly spoke with the platforms about COVID–19 and election-related misinformation. For example, White House officials publicly and privately called on the platforms to do more to address vaccine misinformation.
Full Decision Here
Surgeon General Vivek Murthy issued a health advisory that encouraged the platforms to take steps to prevent COVID–19 misinformation “from taking hold.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention alerted the platforms to COVID–19 misinformation trends and flagged example posts. The Federal Bureau of Investigation and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency communicated with the platforms about election-related misinformation in advance of the 2020 Presidential election and the 2022 midterms. Respondents are two States and five individual social-media users who sued dozens of Executive Branch officials and agencies, alleging that the Government pressured the platforms to censor their speech in violation of the First Amendment. Following extensive discovery, the District Court issued a preliminary injunction. The Fifth Circuit affirmed in part and reversed in part. The court held that both the state plaintiffs and the individual plaintiffs had Article III standing to seeking junctive relief. On the merits, the court held that the Government.

They also ruled that bribery doesn’t apply to public officials receiving gifts for past acts. Seems corrupt….

I hope ThePineTree takes note and starts deleting the posts that are disgusting examples of perverted minds.
Free speech is one thing, common decency is another. You say so in your opening for comments.

What does the fake democrat surgeon general have to do with freedom of speech. On any platform. I mean CNN is still news with political activists like the view. Who is in charge and in control it surely isn’t We the People. Where’s Covid? And the President?

Freedom of speech doesn’t guarantee you a platform, nor that your speech can’t be criticized.
Hope that helps!

It’s the USA. And a puppet like Joe has had 48 plus years of worthless experience to help you and dementia democracy. Donald had 4 years of corruption and collusion trying help in a Constitutional Republic. Under some democracy. Joey is failure and will fail. Again and again and again and so on. Story of his ice cream licking life.

It's what Donald Trump stands for, White America. He has no respect for Blacks.
Look at his Cabinet. All White.
A couple of Uncle Toms kiss his ass for jobs in his administration.
They won't give their support for long when they sit down day to day dealing with a moron.

It’s important that someone is of good character. That’s not Donald Trump. Frankly, he prefers people that were not captured. And by the way . Can you find 11,780 votes for me ?

The Disgrace of a man. Donald J Trump. If he were innocent. He would stand up and defend himself. But he runs and hides. Delay, everything. A complete and total failure of a Ex President of the United States. Sad
