"Supreme Court's Stance on Free Speech and Gender Identity Sparks Controversy"

During oral arguments in the social media censorship case Murthy v. Missouri, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson expressed concerns over the First Amendment restraining the government, suggesting that the government should have the power to dictate what can be posted on social media, particularly in times of crisis like the COVID pandemic. Her comments have sparked criticism from Rep. Jim Jordan and others, who argue that her view goes against the intended purpose of the First Amendment and could lead to government censorship of political speech.
