New suggested "story" for the Babylon Bee:

Historian newly discovers previous drafts of the Constitution, the latest entitled, "Hamstringer of Federal Powers."

The Bill of Rights was designed specifically to hamstring government.

Oh my. When we the people want disinformation by the government stopped, we’re arrested and imprisoned (Jan. 6).

She’s right - although its probably not what she meant,

The whole Constitution was designed to limit government.

Godzilla reported: Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is concerned that the First Amendment is “hamstringing the Government” when it comes to censoring speech on social media. She made the comment during a hearing a lawsuit against the US govt for pressuring social sites to censor ‘misinformation’ (which has since been proven to be factual information). Uh, well, yeah, that’s literally the entire reason it was created.

OBSERVATION - She speaks the brainless concept of what the progressive left think of how the constitution does or does not operate. You can take her ‘thoughts’ and multiply it by millions of mind numbed democrats. If the government can stop what you say, why not stop who you are allowed to pray to or who you are allowed to meet or any type of protest against the government at all?

IN RELATED - USSC observers note that the court is inclined to side with the Biden administration, allowing federal agencies to restart what is effectively government censorship of online political speech just in time for the 2024 election.

Of course she does.
In the eyes of lunatic liberals like her, the Government must be all seeing, all knowing and un-reprochable.

The government wants their own bill of rights overrule ours.

NO!

The purpose of the Constitution is to hamstring government. Especially the Bill of Rights.

What a stupid woman.

That thing has no business being seated on the SCOTUS.

She’s a “positive rights” idiot, like Obama - people have “rights” for Government to give stuff to them, and to do stuff for them: a “right” to housing, or a “right” to government medical care, a “right” to their own view of their sexuality, etc....

In her world, all this “Free Speech” nonsense hobbles the government from providing all these “rights”

Problem identified. She was referring to several articles of the 1936 Russian constitution. Glenn Beck went through several articles and it is clear she just grabbed the wrong constitution.
