The US Supreme Court agreed to take up a free speech showdown over a man trying to get federal trademark protection for the phrase "Trump too small."

The justices said Monday they will hear the Biden administration's appeal of a ruling that said Steve Elster has a First Amendment right to seek to register the mark with the US Patent and Trademark Office. Elster says he wants to use the phrase on T-shirts.
