One of the most tyrannical actions of the Biden administration was targeting people for being politically incorrect. And in one of their most dystopian moves, they went after a man for posting a meme during the 2016 election that sarcastically urged Hillary Clinton supporters to submit their votes by text.

However, according to the courts, officials don’t actually have that power in America.

So, it turns out that politically incorrect memes are protected by the First Amendment. Who would have thought?

According to The Post Millennial:

Mackey was prosecuted after sharing a meme during the 2016 election season that joked Hillary Clinton supporters should text in their vote. It was a joke, but Biden's Department of Justice under Attorney General Merrick Garland accused him of election interference. Despite their claim, they could not provide evidence that anyone had been fooled by the meme into thinking that they should text their vote. This lack of evidence was not concerning to the DOJ, who also suggested that Mackey was racist because of the meme.

Just think about it. The Biden administration — a failed leadership controlled by a sleeping potato who took more vacations than any other president in modern American history — decided to focus its efforts on prosecuting a man for a politically incorrect meme. They did this with zero evidence that it even remotely interfered with the election. But they didn’t care, because the goal was to scare everyone and their grandmothers into believing that opposing the politically correct status quo would land you in jail.

However, it turns out that’s not how America works — people are allowed to make jokes under the First Amendment. And the fact that the sleeping potato administration ignored this basic right is a scandal that should never be forgotten.

Those memes were the basis of the jury verdict in the Eastern District of New York that convicted him of "conspiring to injure citizens in the exercise of their right to vote." The Second Circuit wrote that "the mere fact that Mackey posted the memes, even assuming that he did so with the intent to injure other citizens in the exercise of their right to vote, is not enough, standing alone, to prove a violation of Section 241. The government was obligated to show that Mackey knowingly entered into an agreement with other people to pursue that objective."

"This the government failed to do. Its primary evidence of agreement, apart from the memes themselves, consisted of exchanges among the participants in several private Twitter message groups—exchanges the government argued showed the intent of the participants to interfere with others’ exercise of their right to vote. Yet the government failed to offer sufficient evidence that Mackey even viewed—let alone participated in—any of these exchanges. And in the absence of such evidence, the government’s remaining circumstantial evidence cannot alone establish Mackey’s knowing agreement. Accordingly, the jury's verdict and the resulting judgement conviction must be set aside," the court states.

It's totally insane that the Biden Administration tried to play this off as if it were anything but a joke.

And while it’s great that the courts upheld our Constitution, it’s incredibly concerning that this had to happen in the first place. These kinds of things are not supposed to occur in America, and the fact that it did—and that officials were emboldened to pull such a stunt—is troubling.

What’s to stop a future administration from doing the same?

Nonetheless, the great thing about this country is the separation of powers, and the court system sometimes does stand on the right side of history. So, while this needed to be done, it’s even more concerning that it was necessary at all. But at least we can confidently say that today was a great day for the First Amendment, our individual freedoms as Americans, and most importantly, for Mackey himself.
