Louisiana And Mizzou Have Now Filed Their Joint Political Manifesto, Tonight. It Will NOT Win The Day. A Stay Is Required Here.

Well — as expected, it is 17 pages of overwrought MAGA talking points — none of which read on the actually preposterous idea that these two states seek to force private social media companies to carry false and misleading screes about important public health/pandemic matters.

That cannot be countenanced. And it won’t be. I preserve it solely for the record — and for derision.

I won’t quote it.

But I will say that Ronald Reagan hisself (their patron saint, no less!), in 1985. . . specifically rejected this notion, and cited the First Amendment — the government (here a federal court, along with two states’ governments) cannot tell any private news outlet what it must carry. Full stop. Game over. But stay… tuned. Heh — tomorrow may be a busy noon-time — in Western Louisiana’s federal district courts.
