MODERATORS
They brought upon themselves an unusual position of ruling on abortion access even after its conservative majority declared that it would leave that question to the states.
To which it isn't authorized to rule because that falls to the FDA. They are religious zealots and not qualified to rule on medicine.
If this is actually successful, expect republicans to begin going after more fda approvals in the courts for things like hiv medications or vaccines. Anything that appeals to their religious zealot base, doesn't matter how many people they harm.
Edit: Didn't think of this originally, and not strictly related to abortion access debate, but the ruling as it stands could allow for pharmaceutical companies to sue each other and try to overturn the approvals of competitors' drugs. It's just such an unfathomably bad ruling on soooooo many levels.
Not just FDA, all regulating bodies.
You're right, the more I think about this ruling the worse it gets. The fifth circuit court should be fired...
Out of a canon and into the sun
For real.
Yeah, people don't really understand the precedent that would be set here.
Chevron deference is extremely important, and the GOP is openly working to "dismantle the administrative state," to use their own words.
That is because the conservative majority are a bunch of hypocritical lying liars.
Conservatives aren’t bound by the need to make sense or be consistent.
