Lawsuit Update: Defending the First Amendment

[View in browser](=.VaN9JaibsZJyw_hz0F6mf9gdw9CzFIB2BPp3AxCdS4s) Dear Reader, Yesterday, a federal court rejected the Biden administration's attempt to dismiss [The Federalist's First Amendment case](=.DOBNRqpoAIB3Ot4r48IKnUUPjOoUtr_HFoD0sWa2ppw) against the federal government for violating our constitutional rights through illegal censorship activities. The court also granted The Federalist's request for expedited preliminary discovery. We look forward to learning even more about the government's unconstitutional operation to target, censor, demonetize, and deplatform The Federalist because our fact-based reporting contradicted the government's preferred political spin. The First Amendment is first for a reason, and we're not going to stop fighting for our God-given constitutional right to comment and report on the U.S. government's activities. We will do everything we can to stop one of the most audacious, manipulative, secretive, and gravest abuses of power and infringements of First Amendment rights by the federal government in American history. And for those who may need a reminder of the lawsuit details, here's why we are suing Biden's State Department: The State Department is illegally using a counterterrorism center intended to fight foreign “disinformation” instead to stop American citizens from speaking and listening to information government officials dislike. As you may have seen, Congressional investigations in November [revealed](=.yMV6FyYBorlmQLQlQdi2R3SqlMNkm6pUaeeT39brGOM) that federal officials have specifically targeted me, Mollie Hemingway, and The Federalist’s reporting for censorship. We'll continue to keep you updated on how this lawsuit progresses.
