Curious what BellLiar has to say about THIS intrusion into 1A rights... Or is it only a concern when he believes Biden is trampling upon Social Media?

It gets better.

I've heard the "subpoenas" were NOT signed by a judge.

Then those subpoenas are absolutely meaningless and worthless.

I don't see a link to the documents but neither am I seeing anything nefarious. Rules of civil procedure, both state and federal, provide for requests for discovery from third parties then there's the administrative requests. Those requests are generally considered as subpoenas.

Making them stick is another story.

He will avoid this thread like a Covid vaccine.

Too much hypocrisy for even him to try and defend.
