Federal judges hammered fresh nails into the coffin of the Biden censorship regime Thursday in New Orleans.
The thrashing the administration received will likely set up an epic Supreme Court battle that could help redefine freedom for our era.
A federal appeals court was hearing the Justice Department’s appeal of a July 4 decision in Missouri v. Biden that ignited pro-freedom rhetorical fireworks across the nation.
Federal Judge Terry Doughty’s opinion condemned the Biden administration for potentially “the most massive attack against free speech in United States’ history.”
Doughty delivered 155 pages of damning details of federal browbeating, jawboning and coercion of social-media companies.
He issued an injunction blocking the feds from “encouraging, pressuring, or inducing in any manner the removal, deletion, suppression, or reduction of content containing protected free speech.”
The Biden administration rushed to sway the appeals court to postpone enforcement of the injunction and then sought to redefine all its closed-door shenanigans as public service.

There is no reason to expect Team Biden and federal censorship contractors will not seek to taint another presidential election next year.
At least two of the three judges on last week’s panel will likely uphold all or part of the injunction against federal censorship.
The Biden administration will probably speedily appeal the case to the Supreme Court, setting up an epic showdown.
