Joe Biden’s leftist pick for the Supreme Court, Ketanji Brown Jackson, voiced her concern today that free speech protections in the first amendment might hamstring the government’s ability to protect people.

She said this during oral arguments today in the case regarding Joe Biden’s administration pressuring social media companies to censor people on their platforms.

Here’s what she said:

Jackson said “My biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways…” and then she went on to elaborate on this by suggesting the government has a duty to protect people or something.

But as Glenn Greenwald’s account said on Twitter, hamstringing the government “is, quite literally, the entire point of the First Amendment — of the entire Bill of Rights.”

Michael Shellenberger responded like this:

Exactly. The other Supreme Court Justices must have been trying as hard as they could to keep from rolling their eyes or making some kind of expression that would let everyone know what they were thinking about her comments.
