News from the Frontlines - July 06, 2023 The court ruling on July 4th, which has halted most of the federal government from colluding with social media companies to censor material that they deem objectionable already has ripple effects. The Biden White house has already gotten the US Justice Department (DOJ) to file a notice of appeal in federal court in Louisiana on Wednesday. Expect this court case to make its way to the 5th US Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans. This is a “notably conservative” court - so fingers crossed that the ruling will hold as it makes it way to the supreme court. However, word on the street is that the DOJ will request the court to put the injunction on hold during the appeal. If the government’s request is rejected, this could end up at the Supreme court quickly. The sooner the better! But those ripples in government are getting stronger and stronger
