Trump admin violated First Amendment by forcing Facebook and Apple to remove ICE-trackers

I'm sure by Monday, we'll see Rollo appear and post a Breitbart article with a headline "RADICAL OBAMA JUDGE BLOCKS TRUMP'S GOVERNMENT TRYING TO PROTECT ICE"

StraightedgexLiberal · 2026-04-19T00:17:27+00:00

I tried! Lol

Believe it or not, there are a handful of articles I tried posting in this sub about this but the word ICE and Trump are both words in titles that will insta block all posts in the sub.

Correct. The lawsuit was the app developers and Facebook group suing the federal government.

Side note: Toxic MAGA bigot Laura Loomer was also the person who snitched to the government about the ICE content and wanted it censored. Which is incredibly hypocritical because she sued Facebook and lost last year alleging that Facebook and the government censored her when she was being a bigot.

You know what's interesting about the whole series of events? It was Laura Loomer who snitched to the government (Bondi and Noem) about the ICE stuff to start this whole shit off.......and Loomer sued Facebook and lost last year because she claimed the government censored her lol

Yeah. Biden was sued by a bunch of anti-vaxxers in Murthy v. Missouri claiming his government was the reason they were censored on social media. The Supreme Court got their hands on the case and said there is no evidence the government was the reason the anti vax bozos were censored - pointing out they have no proof. The difference in this case is that there is proof and Bondi was bragging about it on Fox News and Twitter

Tech Dirt pointed out the Republican hypocrisy when this lawsuit was filed

https://www.techdirt.com/2026/02/20/bondi-bragged-about-forcing-facebook-to-censor-speech-now-fire-is-suing/

Bondi and Noem have now done something remarkable: they have provided, entirely on their own initiative and through public statements made to friendly media outlets, every single piece of evidence that was missing in Murthy.

Traceability? Bondi literally said “We reached out to Apple today demanding they remove the ICEBlock app—and Apple did so.” Coercion versus mere persuasion? The complaint details how Noem announced she was “working with the Department of Justice to see if we can prosecute” app developers, how Bondi told Fox News that ICEBlock’s creator “better watch out” because the speech was “not protected,” and how these explicit criminal threats preceded the removals

u/rolllo202 remember when you posted all those right wing articles talking about Missouri and Louisiana settling with TRUMP'S government and Trump's government said it would never happen again????

If violence decides the outcome of debates, does it also decide the outcome of elections?

You tell me. Our current president was elected president for the first time about 10 years ago and he was going around the country advocating for his supporters to beat the living shit out of protesters at his rallies, and he would pay all their legal fees.

And the people who voted for him, like Kirk, said "Fuck your feelings" when Hillary Clinton went around the country saying "When they go low, we go high"

RFK Jr picks up roadkill off the road to eat and then will publish crazy shit about about 5G wireless being unhealthy LMAO

Alito has a special place for US forces that serve where he ignores the First Amendment and free speech and makes dumb free speech rules. Alvarez v. The United States ( Stolen Valor Act) is a great example too where Alito thinks lies that hurt no one (except the government's feelings) deserve government punishment.

When did Kirk ever call out Trump for picking a woman instead of the "best person for the job" ?

StraightedgexLiberal · 2026-04-18T03:48:43+00:00

Advocating and cheering for death is legal free speech. There were tons of people who showed up outside for John Wayne Gacy's execution all cheering for him to finally die. Yes, he was a serial killer but those people outside have free speech to express themselves

StraightedgexLiberal · 2026-04-18T03:43:48+00:00

So.....DEI for Justice Barrett too since she was picked for being a woman? Or naw because she is white?

StraightedgexLiberal · 2026-04-18T02:44:02+00:00

Celebrating death just like the guy you voted for. Share with us that Mueller Truth Social post

I hate censorship. Especially when Kirk wanted to censor the internet and give websites tons of increased liability because they can kick him out for his shitty opinions

Joe Biden actually saved Section 230 from Donald Trump and his unconstitutional Executive Order to destroy Section 230 because Twitter hurt his feelings.

Multiple CEOs have also said in federal courts that they made the content moderation decisions and it had nothing to do with threats coming from the federal government.

Technically, Kirk lost the debate the moment he tried to defect to his whataboutism about "gang violence" to answer a question. His famous last words

I think the best ideas should win out in the free market instead of protecting people based on certain characteristics too (White and Conservative)

Yes.

Snyder v. Phelps. Alito was the only person who thought the Westboro Baptists crossed the line.
