Fights over forums are not new. Long before national injunctions flew from Amarillo and San Francisco, the executive branch sought to control were legal challenges could be filed. Perhaps the most prominent such recent example was Guantanamo Bay. The Bush Administration detained enemy combatants on the military base to avoid federal habeas jurisdiction. That plan, however, did not work out. In a series of cases leading to Boumedienne v. Bush (2008), the federal courts in the District of […]

Nina Jankowicz is the former director of the Department of Homeland Security’s Disinformation Governance Board, an entity that purported to advise the Biden administration on how best to counter online misinformation but was shuttered after drawing the ire of conservatives and libertarians.
