En føderal dommer i Louisiana, Terry Doughty, har felt en knusende dom over Biden-regimets forsøk på sensur av konservative stemmer. Det var riksadvokaten i Missouri, Eric Schmitt, som gikk til sak pga. massiv sensur under covid. Dommeren gir ham utvetydig rett: Dette var det verste angrepet på ytringsfrihet i amerikansk historie.

In a landmark ruling in Missouri v. Biden, Doughty struck back hard against what he called “the most massive attack against free speech in United States’ history.”

Det var en rekke historier regjeringen ønsket å legge lokk på:

Plaintiffs allege that Defendants suppressed conservative-leaning free speech, such as: (1) suppressing the Hunter Biden laptop story prior to the 2020 Presidential election; (2) suppressing speech about the lab-leak theory of COVID-19’s origin; (3) suppressing speech about the efficiency of masks and COVID-19 lockdowns; (4) suppressing speech about the efficiency of COVID-19 vaccines; (5) suppressing speech about election integrity in the 2020 presidential election; (6) suppressing speech about the security of voting by mail; (7) suppressing parody content about Defendants; (8) suppressing negative posts about the economy; and (9) suppressing negative posts about President Biden.

Administrasjonen forsøkte å etablere et Disinformation Governance Board med Nina Jankowitz. Hun gjorde en forferdelig figur. Dette departementet var som Orwells sannhetsministerium, skriver dommeren.

Doughty wrote: “During the COVID-19 pandemic, a period perhaps best characterized by widespread doubt and uncertainty, the United States Government seems to have assumed a role similar to an Orwellian ‘Ministry of Truth.’ The Plaintiffs have presented substantial evidence in support of their claims that they were the victims of a far-reaching and widespread censorship campaign.” He added: “It is quite telling that each example or category of suppressed speech was conservative in nature. This targeted suppression of conservative ideas is a perfect example of viewpoint discrimination of political speech. American citizens have the right to engage in free debate about the significant issues affecting the country.”

At denne dommen falt på 4. juli blir av mange hilst som et godt tegn.
