Cybertoonz explains the government’s right to speak

There’s already a tangled legal history to the Biden administration’s aggressive campaign aimed at persuading social media companies to restrict certain messages and ban certain speakers.

Still unsatisfied, the Solicitor General obtained a further stay from the Supreme Court.
