    Excerpt: “This Court has all it needs to conclude that Defendants have trampled on Senator Kelly’s First Amendment freedoms and threatened the constitutional liberties of millions of military retirees,” U.S. District Judge Richard Leon wrote. “After all, as Bob Dylan famously said, 'You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.' To say the least, our retired veterans deserve more respect from their Government, and our Constitution demands they receive it!”

    “Rather than trying to shrink the First Amendment liberties of retired service members, Secretary Hegseth and his fellow Defendants might reflect and be grateful for the wisdom and expertise that retired service members have brought to public discussions and debate on military matters in our Nation over the past 250 years,” Leon, a George W. Bush appointee, wrote. “If so, they will more fully appreciate why the Founding Fathers made free speech the first Amendment in the Bill of Rights!"

    He added, "Hopefully this injunction will in some small way help bring about a course correction in the Defense Department’s approach to these issues.”

  13. "This fall, during the opening of the United Nations in New York City, I recognized the face of a federal officer from his days working in law enforcement in New Jersey and mine working as a trial judge. We chatted, and I asked him what he was doing. He told me he worked for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

    "I asked what ICE has to do with the United Nations, and he told me that soon ICE would be everywhere."

    »“The commissioner of police has the power to make sure that everyone (…) is kept safe, …. the general public as well as people who are peacefully opposing the presence of a man who has incited #genocide.

    “(…) The police …have a responsibility to ensure that lawful rights are upheld, & that includes the safe exercise of the right to #protest.”«

  15. Kevin Breuninger’s article reveals that Judge Richard Leon has definitively deemed President Trump's executive order against WilmerHale unconstitutional. Leon's 73-page ruling highlights the importance of an independent judiciary, scorches the administration's claims as "absurd," and warns against undermining constitutional principles. This decision reflects a troubling pattern of the former president's attacks on opposing legal entities. For the full story, click here: cnbc.com/2025/05/27/trump-leon

    #Oklahoma --- defying the #FirstAmendment's #EstablishmentClause again and again.

    It is shameful and wrong.

    It is critical that all who believe in the First Amendment (including religious folks) speak out against this madness.

    State Superintendent #RyanWalters should be impeached and removed from office for this extreme level of defiance to our most basic of civil rights.
