The Biden administration’s “misinformation machine” just took a hit from the 5th Circuit Court, which upheld a previous ruling by a Trump-appointed judge in Louisiana. The court stated that Biden and his team had likely violated Americans’ First Amendment rights by collaborating with social media platforms to censor discussions on the COVID vaccine debacle. But the real kicker was how the 5th Circuit treated these ghouls like the peeping Tom’s they are. Basically, the creepy stalkers in the Biden regime, FBI, CDC, and even the Surgeon General were told to keep away from social media.

Also, we’ve got even more information on this bombshell ruling.
The U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld an injunction restricting how the government can communicate with social media companies, which the Biden administration warns will stymie efforts to counter false and misleading claims about elections, public health and other important topics.
The panel of judges, all GOP nominees, say that the administration’s efforts to flag what it considered to be false and harmful content about COVID, the 2020 election and other topics that violated the social media companies’ policies likely amount to a violation of the First Amendment. The court found that Biden Administration officials coerced and threatened the social media companies to take down content.
“The officials have engaged in a broad pressure campaign designed to coerce social-media companies into suppressing speakers, viewpoints, and content disfavored by the government,” a three-judge panel wrote. “The harms that radiate from such conduct extend far beyond just the Plaintiffs; it impacts every social-media user.”
Still, the order limits the scale of the injunction, which had previously included the State Department, the Department of Homeland Security, Health and Human Services. Today’s order applies only to the White House, the surgeon general, the CDC and FBI.
The preliminary injunction limiting the government’s communications was issued on July 4 by District Court Judge Terry Doughty, in a lawsuit brought against the Biden administration by the Republican attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana.
This is the America we know and love, a stark contrast to the authoritarian Marxist nightmare the uni-party regime aims to establish. Here’s hoping this win is just the first of many more righteous victories on the horizon.
