James appeals after federal judge temporarily halts law


New York Attorney General Letitia James has another adversary in her fight to defend the state’s hate speech law: the conservative Christian wags at the Babylon Bee.

The satirical website has filed a friend-of-the-court brief contending that the 2022 “hateful conduct” law, also known as the online hate speech law, “regulates almost nothing but constitutionally protected speech.”

“The Bee’s real concern is that the law’s overbreadth makes online satire — and therefore its job — impossible. And The Bee’s staff do like their jobs,” according to the brief filed with the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. “That’s reason enough to strike the Online Hate Speech Law.”
