The companies are publicly owned, but unless the gov't has major stock holding, they're still in the private sector. Also, corporations are people now, so they should get the same protections, right? /s

Reporter on MSNBC just asked Barbara McQuade why Silicon Valley should be able to block opposing views. Stop it. Are you stupid? Do you think MSNBC doesn't have a right to not share shit they find offensive? By asking that question you leave it open to doubt. As if Texas ever had a right to tell a private company what they can or cannot publish. I get so tired of the bullshit. Keith Olbermann would never have asked that question. Rachel Maddow would never asked that question. JFC.

And that's what the 6-3 slant allows him to do. He can "dissent" without changing the desired outcome. Much like how the "Moderate GOP Trio" (R-Money, Concerned Collins, Murky Write-in) operate in the Senate.

I think the blowback when the Court actually releases the opinion will only build on the blowback born from the draft opinion that was leaked. Anyone who actually cares about the decision will have it well in the front of their mind in the voting booth.

Your point about the leak vs. the leaked material is spot on and yet another indictment of how many content creators have no idea how to structure a sentence.

If they're the majority they say they are, that "everyone is against you libtard satanists", they should leave ALL of them and put FB, IG, Twitter, TikTok, etc out of business in seconds.

I think I heard that Alito's retiring end of session and she'll be sworn in then. So, next month maybe?

You mean Breyer? It would be great if Alito would retire, but I doubt that will happen anytime soon.

Are The New York Times, the Washington Post, and The Wall Street Journal "common carriers?" How about Faux "News?"
