Cool that the same court in Texas always gets to decide policy for the entire fucking country.

Jurisdiction shopping is a real problem. Conservatives know they can file any case in one of these small districts with a Trump wacko as the sole judge, and enforce whatever legal hackery they want.
That is getting pretty annoying. These cases should get reassigned to courts in different states after they reach a certain level of ruling.
I was curious so I looked it up and this time it's actually not the Northern district in Texas, but the Eastern district. Still a Trump appointed judge though
