Eric Holder, who served as attorney general under President Barack Obama, has issued a scathing rebuke of a landmark court decision that blocks the Biden administration from pressuring social media companies to censor free speech.

“Well this is pretty stupid. And potentially dangerous,” Mr. Holder said in a tweet, commenting on a court injunction issued on Tuesday by a Louisiana judge blocking various federal agencies from taking a range of actions with respect to social media companies on cracking down on Americans’ freedom of speech.
