本周三，美国联邦法官布赫瓦尔德裁定，特朗普不得将推特上的批评者“拉黑”，否则就是违宪！
President Trump’s decision to block his Twitter followers for their political views is a violation of the First Amendment, a federal judge ruled Wednesday, saying that Trump’s effort to silence his critics is not permissible because the digital space in which he engages with constituents is a public forum.
周三，一名联邦法官裁定，特朗普总统阻止推特粉丝发表政治观点的决定违反了宪法第一修正案。他表示，特朗普试图让批评者噤声是不允许的，因为他与选民接触的数字空间是一个公共论坛。
The ruling rejects administration arguments that the First Amendment does not apply to Trump in this case because he was acting as a private individual. In a 75-page decision, Judge Naomi Buchwald said Trump, as a federal official, is not exempt from constitutional obligations to refrain from "viewpoint discrimination."
这一裁决否定了政府关于第一修正案不适用于特朗普的说法，因为他是一个私人个体。法官娜奥米布赫瓦尔德在一份长达75页的判决书中称，作为一名联邦官员，特朗普并不能免除宪法义务，避免“观点歧视”。
No government official - including the President - is above the law, wrote Buchwald for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
“任何政府官员，包括总统，都不能凌驾于法律之上，”布赫瓦尔德在纽约南区联邦地区法院写道。
Under the ruling, Buchwald did not order Trump to unblock his followers, saying that clarification of the law is sufficient to resolve the dispute. Should Trump ignore the ruling, analysts say, future litigation could force Twitter to unblock Trump’s followers unilaterally.
根据这一裁决，布赫瓦尔德并没有命令特朗普解除他的追随者，他说，澄清法律就足以解决争端。分析人士说，如果特朗普不理会这一裁决，未来的诉讼可能会迫使Twitter单方面解除特朗普的粉丝。
The decision marks a victory for free-speech activists representing seven Twitter users who alleged that their rights had been infringed after they tweeted at Trump critiquing his policies. Trump blocked them on Twitter, preventing them from seeing his tweets from their account or interacting with them.
这一决定标志着以7名Twitter用户为代表的言论自由活动人士的胜利。这些用户在特朗普推特上批评他的政策后，声称自己的权利受到了侵犯。特朗普在Twitter上屏蔽了他们，阻止他们从他们的账户中看到他的推文，或者与他们互动。
We are extremely pleased that the judge held that the president’s blocking of critics from the @realDonaldTrump Twitter account violates the First Amendment,” Katie Fallow, a senior staff attorney with the Knight First Amendment Institute who argued the case, said.
“关于法官裁定特朗普拉黑@realDonaldTrump推特账户上的批评者违反了第一修正案的决定令我们感到非常高兴”，奈特第一修正案研究所的高级律师凯蒂休说。
