I'm not certain of many things, but this Judge's past can lead us to only one conclusion, and that is that he will do whatever he can from a legal standpoint to restrict/eliminate access to this medication in as any places and in as many ways as he possibly can. The ultra-conservative Fifth Circuit will almost certainly affirm whatever he does. Then, it will go to the Supreme Court. We all know what the Dobbs decision said. Anyone want to take bets on which way the Supreme Court will go when this issue inevitably presents itself before the High Court?
The problem with all of this is that there's a whole lot of 'should' involved. And 'should' hasn't worked the last seven years. I think there are still too many Democrats holding out for that, when the reality is much more like a war.
Thank you for this detailed explainer!

I’m a little confused. Could both mifepristone and misoprostol be restricted by this ruling?
