Justice Kagan realizing she has to be ideological allies with Justice Jackson for another 20 years

🚨 INBOX: If there's one thing we know about Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson this term - it's that she doesn't understand. INCREDIBLE VIDEO

Perhaps my favorite Supreme Court exchange in recent memory: Solicitor general: “It’s a new world." John Roberts: "It's a new world. It's the same Constitution." Into my veins 😌

🚨 In an 8-1 vote, the Supreme Court holds that Colorado’s ban on “conversion therapy,” as applied to petitioner's talk therapy, violates the First Amendment because it constitutes viewpoint discrimination

All people need to do is read the 1st paragraph of Gorsuch's 8-1 majority opinion: "Kaley Chiles holds a master’s degree in clinical mental health and a state counseling license in Colorado. Ms. Chiles does not begin counseling with any predetermined goals; instead, she sits down with clients, discusses their goals, and then formulates methods of counseling that will most benefit them, seeking throughout to respect her clients’ fundamental right of self-determination. On matters of sexuality and gender, Ms. Chiles’s clients, including young people, often have different goals: Some are content with their sexual orientation and gender identity and want help with social issues or family relationships, while others hope to reduce or eliminate unwanted sexual attractions, change sexual behaviors, or grow in the experience of harmony with their bodies. With all those clients, Ms. Chiles seeks to help them reach their stated objectives. And she employs only talk therapy."

Look at these headlines from BBC, AP, NPR—and even the Colorado governor’s office. They all point in the same direction: suggest that yesterday’s Supreme Court decision somehow “opens the door” to conversion therapy for gay kids. That is NOT what the Court did. This was a First Amendment ruling about viewpoint discrimination in speech—specifically whether the state can prohibit licensed therapists from expressing certain perspectives in talk therapy. The Court did not endorse conversion therapy. It did not eliminate bans. It did not decide the ultimate constitutionality of the law. What it did say—clearly—is that when the government censors speech based on viewpoint, it triggers the highest level of constitutional scrutiny. But that nuance disappears in these headlines. This is not accidental. I’ve written before about the subtle but powerful ways headlines and framing shape public understanding. This is a textbook case. By emphasizing a politically charged outcome rather than the actual legal question, coverage creates a distorted lens through which tens of millions of Americans will view the ruling. The result is not outright falsehood—but something more insidious: a selective presentation that leads readers to a predetermined conclusion. You don’t need misinformation when you have selective presentation. And that’s exactly what we’re seeing in much of the mainstream coverage on the Supreme Court ruling.

still laughing at this
