The attorney general of Missouri, who last week brought and (ludicrously) won a case in front of a MAGA judge saying no one in the federal government could have conversations with social media companies about content moderation because it might pressure them to restrict speech, has now sent a letter threatening to sue Target because they are selling these T-shirts, which he says "appeal to the prurient interest," and as a government official, he wants to pressure them to restrict their speech.
