It’s Judge Doughty in the Western District of Louisiana. Republicans go judge shopping specifically to get him, and he gives them what they want.

A person must either be genuinely ignorant or literally deranged to believe SCOTUS would rule against the 1st amendment in a case like this. Especially given:
1. The current make up of the court
2. The court's current track of rulings aligned with the Constitution
3. It ignores the entire landmark ruling of New York Times Co. v. United States which describes in explicit detail about how the people's 1st amendment rights ALWAYS trump the government's interest, except under extraordinary circumstances where there's a very clear and imminent gave danger that cannot be prevented. The example given in the case was something being published that endangers troops actively deployed in combat AND with no means to redraw them. Anything less is grounds for rightfully being condemned, ridiculed, and mocked for being a tyrannical psychopath, because that's what the court will be saying.
And he was confirmed by the Senate 98-0.

This is dishonest and sealioning.
