BREAKING: Judge Orders Top Biden Ally To Testify AGAINST Him

(SNews) – Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki has lost her battle in court after a federal judge ordered her to testify on the role Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration played in Big Tech’s efforts to censor Americans on social media.

Judge Terry Doughty of the Western District of Louisiana issued the ruling on Monday.

Psaki’s legal team has been battling to keep her out of the case.

However, Doughty denied a motion by Psaki’s attorney asking to block a court order for her testimony.

The judge said there is a public interest in “determining whether First Amendment free speech rights have been suppressed.”

The lawsuit was filed by Republican Attorneys General Eric Schmitt of Missouri and Jeff Landry of Louisiana on the basis that high-ranking officials in the Biden administration had censored free speech on social media platforms “under the guise of combating misinformation.”

Doughty was the judge who first ruled on October 21 that Psaki and Biden’s chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci must testify for the lawsuit.

“After finding documentation of a collusive relationship between the Biden administration and social media companies to censor free speech, we immediately filed a motion to get these officials under oath,” Schmitt said after the October ruling.

“It is high time we shine a light on this censorship enterprise and force these officials to come clean to the American people, and this ruling will allow us to do just that,” he added.

“We’ll keep pressing for the truth.”

Legal scholar Jonathan Turley opined that there was evidence to support the contentions made in the lawsuit.

“The concern for free speech advocates is that there is a type of censorship by surrogate, that Democratic leaders and other groups have used social media to silence opposing voices, and you’ve had a number of people who’ve been banned on social media or had tweets taken down that have been proven correct,” Turley said.

“The government is not allowed to do indirectly what it is prohibited from doing directly,” the George Washington University law professor said about possible collusion between the government and social media companies.

In July, the Biden administration was forced to turn over emails related to censorship on social media as a part of the lawsuit.

Critics said the emails proved that the White House participated in a campaign to shut down free speech.
