Liz and Andrew talk to Tech Freedom’s Corbin Barthold about two recent SCOTUS decisions involving conservative efforts to claim victimhood on social media. In Murthy v. Missouri, Missouri and Louisiana complained about the Biden administration’s efforts to push back against covid misinformation on social media. And in Moody v. Netchoice, Florida and Texas attempted to impose state controls on what social media platforms may restrict.

In today’s episode, we check in with the Supreme Court that still has six cases left to decide, including the key decision on Presidential immunity. We break down Moyle v. US, in which the Supreme Court punted (for now) on the seemingly straightforward question of whether state abortion laws can supersede the federal EMTALA law protecting women in emergency rooms. Then, we discuss SEC v. Jarkesy, in which the Roberts Court continues to gut the administrative state, this time by restricting how the Securities and Exchange Commission can go after securities fraud. And in between, we update you on all things Aileen Cannon, who’s even worse than you imagined.
