The Supreme Court on Friday lifted restrictions on the Biden administration’s communications with social media companies while a lawsuit targeting the government’s efforts to combat online misinformation plays out.
The court’s move pauses rulings from a federal trial court and a conservative appeals court that severely limited the ability of the White House, the surgeon general, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the FBI and a top US cybersecurity agency to communicate with social media companies about content related to Covid-19 and elections the government views as misinformation.
What the hell are you talking about? Nowhere in the Constitution is a response to disease even mentioned. It sure doesn’t mention anything about bombing cities. The Constitution has been interpreted very loosely to allow the government the powers it has now, but bombing US cities is beyond the scope of even that. The idea that they have a constitutional duty to do so is even more absurd.
The Constitution is an actual thing, you know. You could read it instead of just making stuff up.
Actually Section 7, Article 3, Paragraph 8 clearly states ‘none of this counts if people start getting sick lol’
Articles, then sections in the US Constitution.
Good to know, thanks
That would make a wild plot point in a zombie movie though…
Federalism gives the sovereign inherent authority to perpetuate itself. This is basic western philosophy of government. I mean, have you heard of martial law? Not in the Constitution either, but zero question of its legitimacy in times of existential threat to the federal power.
Hey if only downvotes changed facts. There are also the necessary and proper clause, police powers clause, general welfare clause, common defense clause, war powers clause, interstate commerce clause. You go read it.
