Amy Coney Barrett Acts Clueless About Hunter Biden's Laptop
[Federalist] Justice Amy Coney Barrett painted Big Tech’s suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop stories four years ago as a safeguard against foreign interference in an official Supreme Court ruling on Wednesday.

In what could have been a landmark censorship case, Barrett, who wrote the majority opinion in Murthy v. Missouri, characterized tech giants’ reactionary censorship of the laptop story as a good-faith effort to minimize Russian meddling in the 2020 election.

After summarizing social media companies’ content moderation programs throughout the coronavirus epidemic, Barrett wrote "platforms also applied their misinformation policies during the 2020 Presidential election season."

#1 Did she actually write it or just sign it. Was there a roast in the oven that needed tending to.

#2 The most disappointing of recent "conservative appointments" to the Court?

#3 Hmm...I think the words "Nice family you got there Justice Barrett, be a shame if anything happened to them..." may have been uttered.

#4 This was a 'plaintiffs have no standing' case not one decided on merits.

Personally I think it was wrongly decided but the Barrett opinion may not be the final word on this if another better case comes up.
