#Brennan’s lawyer said in a letter to the chief federal judge in Miami that prosecutors had told his client that he is a target of the investigation. He stated prosecutors were "#JudgeShopping" by trying to steer the investigation to a Trump-appointed judge in Fort Pierce, Florida, who previously dismissed a #criminal case against #Trump [yup, it’s the ever-so-compromised #AileenCannon.

…The case is assigned to Rao & Circuit Judges Justin Walker & J. Michelle Childs. Walker, also a #Trump nominee, wrote a separate opinion concurring with Rao’s. Childs, who was nominated by Democratic President Joe #Biden, dissented from the majority.
Childs said the court’s majority has trampled on Boasberg’s authority “in a way that will affect not only these #contempt proceedings but will also echo in future proceedings against all litigants.”TYVM -
#Boasberg has said the #Trump admin may have acted in #BadFaith by trying to rush Venezuelan immigrants out of the country in defiance of his order. He said he gave the admin “ample opportunity to rectify or explain their actions” but concluded that “none of their responses has been satisfactory.”

“Our system is built on the executive branch, including the president, respecting #CourtOrders. In this case there is no longer any question that the #Trump administration willfully violated the court’s order,” Gelernt said in a statement.
Rao was nominated by Trump, a Republican.

The #Trump admin has a “clear & indisputable” right to the termination of the #contempt proceedings [WTF?? Since when can the defendant make their own ruling?], Circuit Judge Neomi Rao wrote in the court’s majority opinion.
“The legal error at the heart of these #criminal #contempt proceedings demonstrates why further investigation by the district court is an abuse of discretion,” Rao wrote.

The US has been a dual state ever since its founding to various degrees. It is now back in a dual state almost as bad as when slaves in the South were the norm and the years of segregation.
Due process means little when ICE can go judge shopping in Texas.

New court filing: #PerkinsCoie v. #DOJ re #Trump #ExecutiveOrder punishing the #law firm
The Trump had filed to disqualify Judge Beryl Howell, basic #JudgeShopping.
Denied.
“Though this adage is commonplace, and the tactic overused, it is called to mind by defendants' pending motion to disqualify this Court: ‘When you can't attack the message, attack the messenger.’“

The case is going to be heard by a panel of judges in the #FifthCircuit Court of Appeals. Of the Circuit Court judges, only 5 out of 26 were appointed by a Democratic president.
#ElonMusk & #JeffBezos have gone #DistrictShopping instead of #JudgeShopping. It would be hard to find another District that was more designed for #conservative #Republican goals.

The case has been assigned to US Dist Judge James Wesley Hendrix, an appointee of… #Trump who has often ruled against #Biden policies. The admin has in the past accused #Texas of "#JudgeShopping" by bringing cases in small cities like Lubbock,where local rules assign most cases to Trump appointees.
#Texas is one of >20 #Republican-led states that have banned or restricted abortion since #SCOTUS’ 2022 decision eliminating the nationwide right to #abortion.

Do you remember the days when US conservatives used to lament in high flown language the threat to popular sovereignty posed by an "activist judiciary legislating from the bench"?
Now they seem happy that important decisions for people all over the USA are handed down by a lone bigot in Amarillo, TX.

Apparently the far-right fringe is now furious that they can’t file all their cases in Amarillo and get guaranteed nationwide rulings. It won’t totally eliminate #judgeshopping but is a step in the right direction.

#Republicans are apoplectic over new #judiciary rules aimed at stopping the practice of "#judgeShopping." In response, they're instructing judges that don't really have to abide by the rule if they don't feel like it. Understand that these people are chipping away at the foundation of our country, and fully intend to put an end to the American republic. Unprecedented voting is our only hope.

An egregious case of #judgeshopping in a case that seeks to ban the #abortion drug #mifepristone nationwide. The case has no legal merit, but the far-right #SCOTUS has lately adopted the legal standard of "because we can" to reverse decades of civil rights. https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/democrats-abortion-supreme-court-dobbs

The #RepublicanControlledLegislature suggested they would push for a #TotalBan on #abortion….
Jenny Black, of Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, said the decision would force #women to carry pregnancies against their will, & “puts the “dangerous politicization of #SouthCarolina’s highest court on full display.”
“This #AbortionBan is nearly identical to the ban struck down by this court just months ago — the only thing that has changed is the makeup of the court”

This really needs to be the narrative in history books in the next 25 years. I want my grandchildren (who don't exist yet) to know how this court was fully corrupted by money and power, and how that ultimately ended the empire.
But it is also VERY important to remember that we solve #CitizensUnited by eliminating the enormous wealth disparities in this country. It is the only way, as far as I see it.

Since #Kacsmaryk joined the federal bench in 2019, many of his decisions have been wins for the right. 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.
