Judge says the US government appears to have acted like 'an Orwellian 'Ministry of Truth'' during the COVID-19 pandemic

[BLAZE] U.S. District Judge Terry A. Doughty has blocked various federal government entities and figures from pressuring social media companies to censor "protected free speech" on their platforms.
Plaintiffs have alleged that the government wielded its authority to trample First Amendment free speech rights.
The judge has granted a preliminary injunction.
"If the allegations made by Plaintiffs are true, the present case arguably involves the most massive attack against free speech in United States' history. In their attempts to suppress alleged disinformation, the Federal Government, and particularly the Defendants named here, are alleged to have blatantly ignored the First Amendment's right to free speech," Doughty wrote.
He explained that the plaintiffs allege that the defendants "colluded with and/or coerced social-media platforms to suppress disfavored speakers, viewpoints, and content on social-media platforms."
"The Plaintiffs are likely to succeed on the merits in establishing that the Government has used its power to silence the opposition. Opposition to COVID-19 vaccines; opposition to COVID-19 masking and lockdowns; opposition to the lab-leak theory of COVID-19; opposition to the validity of the 2020 election; opposition to President Biden's policies; statements that the Hunter Biden laptop story was true; and opposition to policies of the government officials in power. All were suppressed," Doughty wrote.
