Another week, another Biden policy blocked by a judge in the Northern District of Texas. Also: Sixth Circuit judges looking at full court review of Tennessee drag decision.
Another case of where an individual circuit court judge takes it on themselves to make a decision for an entire country. I find it frustrating and I keep thinking where the hell do they get the authority?
I'm sure there are various arguments and yadda yadda yadda to be cited, along with precedents most of which I expect would come down to examples of "hard cases make bad law," but in any event we're left with judge shopping on a national scale and courts populated with judges who individually think they are equal to a SCOTUS majority.
If you want to shut down federal oversight, just go to the Texas forum shopping federal courts - where every MAGA dream can be fulfilled by Ada Brown or Matthew Kacsmaryk. Or go to Florida where you can seek out a loose cannon named Eileen.

Simply put—Texas sucks. But do they actually know how—is the question!!
