These are not Supreme Court Justices - they are activists in black robes. They do not interpret the Constitution. They shredded it long ago. It is a meaningless document to them. They are team tyranny and will do anything and everything to destroy the Republic.

What that idiot doesn’t understand is that free speech is SUPPOSED to hamstring the government.

In her defense she is only repeating other sources in government. It’s all she knows.

I read the article.

It is a shame that no one that I am aware of pointed out that our Constitution enumerates our government’s powers.

We the People never granted any authority to censor the media, restrict the press or speech.

Don’t even need the 1st Amendment.

Jackson and several of her colleagues became too buried in First Amendment jurisprudence to bother returning to first principles and the actual text of the amendment.

There is no clearer test of whether a judge/justice is truly committed to their oath of office - which requires them to comply with the Constitution - than their position on precedent versus actual text.

And the absolutely horrifying thing is that even 'conservative' justices like Antonin Scalia were perfectly committed to following precedent. But precedent is judge-made law, and Congress "shall have the sole power to make law."

"Interpreting" the law is fine for judges, but that interpretation *must* fall the minute someone points out a conflict between precedent ("interpretation") and written statute. That's why they call the judge's decisions 'opinion' because they are no more than that. It's useful for a compelling 'opinion' to provide a consistent 'interpretation' of law so that citizens can get on with their businesses and lives. But only within the context of written statute - of which the superseding primary is the US Constitution.

I remember Obama calling them, “negative rights”.

Proving yet again, that to a liberal “Justice” the strength of any right is inversely proportional to the specificity by which it is guaranteed in the Constitution.
