Fifth Circuit : Lol , No, RFK Jr. You Don’t Have Standing To Sue Joe Biden Because Facebook Blocked Your Anti-vax Nonsense .

The court notes that the Supreme Court had clearly instructed lower courts in the Murthy v. Missouri ruling.

Three -judge panel says RFK 's claims are just as weak as everyone else’s involved in this case.

RFK tried to make a bigger deal by trying to argue that he had standing since he was a political candidate for president (sorta) and the White House was trying to suppress his campaign (a thing they were not actually doing).

But, at least for now, RFK Jr. is back sitting on the outside looking in. Something he should get used to..
