Good morning and Happy Sunday to everyone who correctly remembers that contrary to trump's post, Joe Biden was NOT the President on January 6, 2021 -- trump was.

His delusional episodes are increasing, it's time for the 25th Amendment.

HE IS UNFIT TO SERVE.

makes no bones about why it chose its target: it picked Jenner because of the causes Jenner

power of the State to punish or suppress disfavored expression." Nat'l Rifle Ass'n of Am. v.

judicial check fundamental to the separation of powers. It thus violates the Constitution and the
Court will enjoin its operation in full.

Conclusion
Jenner raises many more claims of unconstitutionality. These present interesting, difficult, and potentially meritorious questions about the scope of presidential power and more.
What has been said here of the First Amendment (and in passing of the Fifth and Sixth),
however, is sufficient to declare Executive Order 14246 unlawful and enjoin its operation,
eliminating the need to explore those other questions. So the Court need not break new ground:

Executive Order 14246 violates settled First Amendment law and its operation must be enjoined in full. Jenner's motion for summary judgment is granted; the defendants' motion is denied. A
separate order will issue.

Remember the Georgetown Law students naming and shaming Trump-capitulating law firms? They helped marshal massive support for a firm that's fighting back in court.

Look at these numbers, and read this brief.
