The court, it was conservatively led
It blocked rules meant for student debt relief
For-profit college groups
Had not seen such good luck
It was a verdict that few could've have guessed

#FifthCircuit: "Defendant has presented no evidence or compelling argument that she will suffer irreparable
harm. Instead, she baldly proclaims that #Florida “suffers a form of irreparable injury” any time it is #enjoined from enforcing one of its statutes. . . Defendant has presented no such support here. Her position that the state suffers irreparable harm any time it is enjoined from enforcing one of its statutes defies #common #sense and is not supported by any meaningful precedent."

The #FifthCircuit’s decision in #Mckesson isn’t just wrong. It is an embarrassment. But it is also typical of the Fifth Circuit, which is dominated by #Trump appointees and other judges on the far-right fringe of the legal profession.

Indeed, the Fifth Circuit’s decisions are so often divorced from any recognizable legal principles that it is fairly often reversed from the left by our current, very conservative Supreme Court.

How absurd is the #FifthCircuit #mifepristone decision? Pretty absurd and disingenuous.

Here’s an excellent discussion of why it’s standing analysis and merits review are downright sloppy:

I want to know exactly which medications Justices Thomas, Gorsuch, Barrett, Kavanaugh and Alito are taking.

Lipitor?
Lasix?
Botox?
Premarin?
Viagra?

ALL their meds should have the FDA approval challenged in the Fifth Circuit. Individually. Swamp the court.

The 5th Circuit put out the mifepristone ruling and I cannot even imagine how this is supposed to be the law of standing.

Any person who votes #republican because they think conservatives care about the people are fucking stupid. How could you want to get rid of the main agency that protects you from getting fucked by financial institutions?!? We all better hope #SCOTUS is up to the task of overturning the #fifthcircuit decision! #politics #republicans #VoteBlue #GQP #vote https://www.vox.com/politics/2023/2/27/23613506/supreme-court-federal-agency-unconstitutional-cfpb-consumer-protection

@mnreformer #2A says nothing about the sale of weapons. The #FifthCircuit is illegitimate, just like #SCOTUS.

Holy shit. The #fifthcircuit is batshit crazy. In other news, water is wet > Ye olde Supreme Court? Your originalism is making America unsafe.

The Fifth Circuit is a scary court

"The Equal Protection Clause enshrines color-blindness, not critical race theory."
Harness v. Watson, 47 F.4th 296, 316 (5th Cir. 2022)
