Lawsuit against MD judges tossed.
But as events over the past several months have revealed, these are not normal times— at least regarding the interplay between the Executive and this coordinate branch of government. ends with: Much as the Executive fights the characterization, a lawsuit by the executive branch of government against the judicial branch for the exercise of judicial power is not ordinary. The Executive’s lawsuit will be dismissed, and its motion for preliminary injunction denied as moot. Whatever the merits of its grievance with the judges of the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, the Executive must find a proper way to raise those concerns. |

For the record, I am not at all "concerned" about his health, I hope it catches up with him (I have posted I hope he gets ulcers and gangrene in his feet), because MAGA or no MAGA, JD Vance will be awkward as s*** before the base and they will not find him fun at all and then it can all be over and we can start repairing the damage. |

Any real leader would have hitched up their pants and treated the 8 people like serious voters. That was a loser move. |
