It has been said that politics makes strange bedfellows.
In the case involving the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the National Rifle Association, the Bill of Rights, specifically, the First Amendment, has them joining together before the U.S. Supreme Court.
The ACLU is joining the NRA's case at SCOTUS over violations of their First Amendment rights, which has caused a backlash by radical leftist gun control groups.
Mediate reported:
The ACLU announced on Saturday its decision to represent the NRA in a major First Amendment case before the United States Supreme Court, and offered defense on social media for doing so after backlash from gun control advocates and even its own New York chapter.
The American Civil Liberties Union shared on X (formerly Twitter) the breaking news on Saturday that it will be representing the National Rifle Association in a First Amendment case at the Supreme Court.
BREAKING: We’re representing the NRA at the Supreme Court in their case against New York’s Department of Financial Services for abusing its regulatory power to violate the NRA’s First Amendment rights.
The government can’t blacklist an advocacy group because of its viewpoint.
