THE REICH WINGED MAGA WAR ON WOMEN IS NOTHING NEW:

Dobbs Was ALWAYS Just the Beginning: The Worst Judge in America Could Outlaw the Abortion Pill Nationwide. And That's Not Even the WORST OF IT - SLATE

"Less than a year after the fall of Roe, conservative activists are trying to put the issue of abortion access into the hands of a single man for whom no one ever voted: a federal judge in Texas named Matthew Kacsmaryk.

In the coming weeks, there is a very real possibility that Kacsmaryk will single-handedly outlaw medication abortion in all 50 states, massively disrupting access to reproductive health care across the entire country. Worse, there is a substantial likelihood that higher courts—including the Supreme Court—will let him get away with it.

[Plaintiffs filed a suit] in the remote Amarillo division of the Northern District of Texas... because they were guaranteed to draw a single judge: Kacsmaryk, whom Donald Trump placed on the bench in 2019.

Before donning his robe, Kacsmaryk served as deputy general counsel at the far-right First Liberty Institute, where he fought [against] LGBTQ equality, abortion, and contraception. (He once said that being transgender is a “delusion” and scorned “secular libertines” who sacrifice children to their “erotic desires.”)

Since his confirmation, he has gained a reputation as perhaps the most lawless jurist in the country.
