How Does One Judge Have the Power to Attack American Women's Rights?

He is a Christian legal activist against abortion.

He is a judge in a small courthouse in Amarillo Texas.

His court is where extreme conservatives go to challenge the Biden administration on all things.

His goal is to take away women's access to mifepristone (an abortion pill) by banning it.

His name is Matthew Kacsmaryk and he hates women. This so-called Christian doesn't care if women live or die. 

What led up to this attack on women's rights?

An extreme anti-abortion group led by Texas-based Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine sued the U.S. Food and Drug Administration last year, claiming that it approved mifepristone for abortion in 2000 using an unlawful process and did not adequately consider the drugs safety.

They went to Kacsmaryk a willing crony against women's rights and asked him to revoke the drug's approval. He did.

Meanwhile another judge, U.S. District Judge Thomas Rice in Spokane, Washington, ordered the FDA not to make any changes to mifepristone access.

The Biden administration is seeking an emergency stay of Kacsmaryk's order that would stop the order from taking effect until the court hears a full appeal.

The big question is how can one man decide what's right for every American woman's health?

This latest battle is going to wind through the courts for months, even years, before it ends up being decided by an extremely conservative Supreme Court.

As it stands, it's apparent to me that our system of justice is breaking down under the extreme conservative MAGA-loving cretins assaulting it.
