    I’m European, but I think this goes against the First Amendment of the American Constitution:

    Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

      Everyone is well aware, but they are throwing spaghetti at the wall, hoping they can get something before the Supreme Court, which is controlled by people capable of shamelessly rationalizing any possible partisan decision, regardless of what the Constitution says.

      Yes but our Supreme Court also goes against the Constitution, so it’s a toss-up if this is legal or not.
