In a practice known as #JudgeShopping conservative grps have zeroed in on the Amarillo div of the Northern Dist of TX as a go-to place….Bc Amarillo is a federal district w/A SINGLE JUDGE, plaintiffs know their arguments will be heard by Kacsmaryk — who was nom’d by…Trump &…is positioned to issue rulings w/#nationwide implications.

The worst federal #judge in #America now has a name
Not simply for the poor quality of his #judicial reasoning…. What really distinguishes #Kacsmaryk is the loaded content of his rhetoric — not the language of a sober-minded, impartial jurist but of a #zealot, committed more to promoting a cause than applying the #law.

The Biden admin will probably #appeal to the #USCourtOfAppeals for the #5thCircuit, & the case could make its way to the #SupremeCourt.

The highly anticipated ruling puts on hold the #FDA’s approval of #mifepristone, …first cleared for use in the US in 2000. The ruling will not go into effect for 7 days to give the gov time to #appeal.
