Judge Nixes Biden Request That Would Allow Contact With Social Media Companies | Eastern North Carolina Now

    A federal judge denied a request from President Joe Biden's administration, saying that he would not grant a stay of his own order barring the administration from contacting social media companies.

    U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty denied the request on Monday, which was meant to allow members of the Biden administration to continue communicating with social media companies until the case has been appealed.

    Doughty issued the initial order, after reviewing what he said amounted to "evidence of a massive effort by Defendants, from the White House to federal agencies, to suppress speech based on its content." On July 4th, Doughty said that based on said evidence, many within the Biden Administration would be barred from meeting or communicating with social media companies.

    The injunction does not affect everyone in the administration, but does target a few key players in the White House and in top federal agencies. Among them are specific White House officials - including Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre - and agencies and certain officials from the Homeland Security Department, the Health and Human Services Department, the DOJ and FBI.

    Some exceptions will be made particularly for law enforcement agencies with regard to efforts to flag criminal behavior, elevate national security concerns, and uncover potential election tampering.

    The Biden administration quickly responded with a promise to appeal, filing the notice on July 5th, and had asked that a stay be granted in the meantime.

    The initial case, filed by the attorneys general of Louisiana and Missouri, alleged that the federal government had engaged in collusion with social media companies in an effort to censor what they considered to be "disfavored speech."

    Doughty, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, appeared to agree with the attorneys general and issued the injunction in response.

In light of continued developments, primarily since 2008, there exists in these United States a Legal System which operates on a proved Two Tiered approach to justice rendered, which primarily benefits Democratic Elites and Woke Ideological Virtue Signalers, representing their co-dependent wards, to the expressed exclusion of normal hardworking American citizens: What is your suggestion in remedying this widespread injustice and, if not corrected, its existential outcome for our Constitutional Republic?
  Complete overhaul of the Department of Justice and their enforcers - the FBI - to reflect a far more honest justice system to keep patriots remaining calm.
  Disband the FBI, and request that congress investigate all unethical and non patriotic practices to partially right the wrongs of a distrusted and politically weaponized "Department of Justice."
  Continue with the current system since the two tiered justice system has been so remarkably beneficial to Democratic Socialist political hegemony; chronic distrust in institutions notwithstanding.

Understanding that this fragile Republic of the self-governed is in a precarious space in our nation's vast history: What is your honor bound patriotic duty in helping to sustain the continuance of these United States of America?
  I will depend on my Democratic Socialist politicians to continue to march hard toward the Left to provide Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for all who think and do as they are told.
  I will defend the Constitution of the United States of America, and support all elected leaders who pledge to protect and insure the continued sovereignty of this Representative Republic.
  I am very concerned about maintaining my current life style without working. I was told that as long as I vote Democrat, I had nothing to worry about ... but now I worry.
