If you concede the corporate entities have First Amendment rights, good. But even in that case, the law was based on content of the speech (i.e., is it advocating for a candidate?). It doesn't matter (in terms of FA law) whether it prohibits speech for all candidates or only some. |

Does the ACLU have Fourth Amendment protections, or can Trump's FBI raid their offices without a warrant tomorrow morning and every morning after that? Can Congress pass a law prohibiting the ACLU from issuing press releases, or does the ACLU have First Amendment/bill of attainder protections?" |

Can you imagine thinking that the government should be able to ban the airing of documentaries and prohibit the publication of books (which the .gov argued in the CU orals it could do) because documentaries and books might influence the course of an election?
Well of course they might. That's the fucking point. If democracy can't survive documentaries and books, then the whole idea of democracy is fundamentally unworkable. Being against Citizens United is, essentially, an argument for aristocracy because the voters are merely ostensible sovereigns in a regime where the government can ban books and suppress documentaries. |
