On Wednesday, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) announced that it would sue Attorney General Pam Bondi and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem. The suit centers on First Amendment obstruction.
The filing alleges that the admins have sought to coerce big tech companies such as Apple, Google, and Meta into censoring apps and social media groups dedicated to monitoring and reporting ICE activity.
