The First Amendment often protects a right to associate with whoever we chose to be associated with, just as it protects free speech. But, as Jackson noted, the Court has permitted laws that prohibit Americans from associating with terrorist organizations and foreign adversaries.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson raised a third argument against TikTok’s position. She argued that the law at issue in the case isn’t really about speech at all. Rather, it is about TikTok’s “right of association” with a China-based company.

A 2nd argument, pressed by several justices incl Chief Justice John Roberts, is that the TikTok ban is lawful bc Congress wasn’t really motivated by a desire to restrict speech but was “concerned about what the foreign adversary is doing.”

The TikTok case applies the principle that foreign nationals can be barred from controlling key communications infrastructure to a new context — a social media app instead of a radio station —but the basic principle remains the same.

Current law prohibits “any foreign government or the representative thereof” from having a radio station license, and it broadly bars noncitizens and companies with significant foreign ownership from controlling those stations.

Current law prohibits “any foreign government or the representative thereof” from having a radio station license, and it broadly bars noncitizens and companies with significant foreign ownership from controlling those stations.
One of those arguments is grounded in the government’s long history of locking foreign nationals out of ownership of US communications infrastructure. Justice Brett Kavanaugh, in particular, pointed to this “long tradition,” which began more than a century ago, and that remains part of US law today.

Today’s quake occurred because of horizontal motion between the Juan de Fuca plate and the Pacific plate.
The reason for all the seismic activity is because that spot is where three different tectonic plates — the North American plate, the Pacific plate and the Juan de Fuca plate — come together.

May we be reminded that the true meaning of Christmas is not about what we get, but about what we give. May we be inspired to give of ourselves, just as God gave of himself when he sent his son to be born in a manger. May we be filled with joy & peace, knowing that God is with us, now and always. /3

This year, as we gather with family and friends, let us remember that the hope of Christmas is not found in the presents we give or receive, but in the gift of God's love. /2
