Uh same to you? Did you check up on how that case from 2018 ended? She won and they changed the law, and the latest I found with a quick search is that CAIR was appealing to get Texas to pay her the compensation she was owed from the original trial but denied because since the state changed the law Texas was arguing they no longer had to pay the original amount awarded (typical Texas, big fuck you to Ken Paxton)

The original law in Texas that got Bahia Amawi fired was amended in 2019 to avoid targeting individuals and only apply to companies applying or bidding for contracts greater than $100,000.

(WASHINGTON, DC, 4/5/2022) – The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, argued yesterday before the Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit on behalf of Bahia Amawi, defending an Austin, Texas, federal court’s decision to award Amawi more than $140,000 for costs and attorney fees after winning her landmark First Amendment victory against the State of Texas, which found Texas’s Anti-BDS law unconstitutional.

Did you have another example?

I was actually reading this wikipedia page earlier after posting and it seemed like these Anti-BDS laws only apply to government offices and government contractors

Most anti-BDS laws have taken one of two forms: contract-focused laws requiring government contractors to promise that they are not boycotting Israel; and investment-focused laws, mandating public investment funds to avoid entities boycotting Israel.

A broad law mandating that the public at large can't not buy certain products, or can't ask others to do the same would be unenforceable I would think -- though I'm not going to doubt the Roberts Court ability to find some way to make something that absurd law if asked by their king...

Everyone's actually required to buy a Tesla now or else they're gonna be in really big trouble

Not surprising -- McLaren gets to keep the most successful current driver pairing on the grid for two more years and Piastri gets to keep a seat in the most recent WCC-winning car for two more years. Makes sense to have Piastri there for the first year of the new regs in 2026 too

Declaring a boycott as illegal is itself illegal and a violation of the 1st Amendment 🌷🌈🖕

Nationalize SpaceX and deport Musk to South Africa where he belongs.

(Ok maybe nationalize it under the next administration.... if there is a next one)
