On May 20, the U.S. Supreme Court gave injunctive relief to Laurel D. Libby, the Maine legislator who has not been allowed to cast votes on the floor of the Maine House for several months because she won’t apologize for a social media post that pictured and named a particular high school transgender student. The vote is 7-2. The majority did not issue any opinion. Justices Sotomayor and Jackson dissent.
The case is Libby v Fecteau, 24A1051. Now it goes back to the First Circuit. Jackson dissented on the grounds that the Maine legislature is about to adjourn for the year so there is no time emergency.
Can anyone here program a spambot to counterprogram the AZ spambot, but using Real News sources such as Lindell TV, Infowars, Babylon Bee, OAN, RT News, Tsargrad, Sputnik News, Not The Bee, Babylon Bee, Breitbart, Tucker Carlson, The Real Donald Trump, IPRX, 4chan /pol/, Antiwar.com, Breaking911, Revolver News, RSBN,
Summit News, The Post Millennial, VDARE, etc?
You need more White Power news sources on that list!
Trump (God) bless Libby!
Trump (God) Bless Trump!
Of course the commies dissented.
If a representative is being denied the ability to perform their constitutional duties while the legislature is in session, then relief merits emergency action. The appropriate course for the N. H. legislature would have been to expel the “offending” member so that the people could elect a person to fill the vacancy.
Censorship is not constitutional. The SCOTUS got this one right.
By “appropriate course” I am hoping you mean the correct technical mechanism, not the morally prudent action. I see that you put “offending” in quotes. Even so, I’m guessing they would probably have needed a supermajority to expel her, but they couldn’t muster the votes for that, so they went for the lesser punishment.
How sad for her constituents. They were subject to rule without even representation. I don’t understand how they lost in court up until this point.
Joe: surprisingly, only some of them.

“a representative is being denied the ability to perform their constitutional duties while the legislature is in session,”
1) there’s no if about it
2) Libby is a her, not a “their”.
“then relief merits emergency action”
It’s not time to kill the communists yet, but not because they don’t deserve it – of course they do!
Revolution takes critical mass. We’re getting there, slowly. Before long the people will be dissatisfied enough with the pace of progress that it will be that time.

“I don’t understand how they lost in court up until this point.”
The tyranny of fascist-communist judges, which is all pervasive throughout the judicial system with rare silver lining type exceptions.
