The Trump administration wants a federal judge to disregard social media statements by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and the Pentagon when determining whether its transgender military ban is constitutional. At the same time, President Donald Trump’s media company sells faster access to his social media posts for as much as $100,000 a month.
The argument appears in a four-page Justice Department filing submitted Tuesday in Talbott v. United States, the federal lawsuit challenging the administration’s efforts to remove transgender people from military service.
If people can be charged with crimes for social media posts, Pete can have his used as evidence too. If not, nobody should have them used in a court of law for any reason.
The legal system isn’t actually meant to be just.
It’s just the modern day slave market
