Once again the Federalist Society rears its ugly head. The Federalist Society is a right-wing organization formed 40 years ago to install judges in US courts who will rule according to conservative Christian principles*, instead of the Constitution or the rule of law. The six judges of the right-wing cabal on the Supreme Court that outlawed abortion are all Federalist Society members. And, no surprise, Kacsmaryk is a Federalist Society judge as well, who was specifically chosen by the right-wing Christians suing to make mifepristone illegal. It would be astounding if Kacsmaryk does not outlaw plan B. Welcome to Gilead.
Good call, John. The GOP Senate during all 4 years of the Seditionist Sociopath's reign, led by Machiavellian Mitch McConnell, rubber stamped so many of these judicial nominees with swift and wholly non deliberative dispatch.
I do not think it is hyperbolic to claim that this represented the only actual "packing" of the federal courts in American history.
The shameful, yet wholly predictable results are rolling in.
The Dobbs and Bruen decisions in particular, are already sowing the legal chaos and public alarm that no responsible Court would allow.
Dobbs is the first case that I know of where the Supreme Court snatched back a constitutional right of long standing and wide reliance from the American people.
