I never expected to see it, but we actually have a lower court win for Republicans in 2026.
AND it's on the pro-life front.

The 5th Circuit Court has issued a nationwide injunction on the issuance of baby-killing abortion pills, which women in "abortion free" states use to kill their children.
For now, tele-docs in California and New York can't send mifepristone tablets to expectant mothers in Tennessee, Louisiana, or any of the states that have banned abortion.
Here's the Associated Press:
A federal appeals court has restricted access to one of the most common means of abortion in the U.S. by blocking the mailing of mifepristone prescriptions.
Friday's unanimous ruling from a three-judge panel of the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is requiring that the abortion pill be distributed only in person and at clinics, overruling regulations set by the federal Food and Drug Administration.
The ruling, which is likely to be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, is the biggest jolt to abortion policy in the U.S. since the 2022 Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade and allowed states to enforce abortion bans.

The by-mail abortion, a Biden admin invention to combat the results of Dobbs, which allowed women who wanted to murder their unborn child to do so via the abortion pill regardless of state laws, had become one of the largest methods of abortion in the country.
It's why the Planned Parenthoods could all close down in red states but the abortion rate continued to climb.
This ruling, which will be appealed, strikes a blow against the abortion industry.
The question is whether or not the FDA can simply override state bans on abortion, particularly those which classify the unborn as fully human.
This court says no, they can't.
In the ruling, Judge Kyle Duncan, who was appointed by President Donald Trump, agreed with the state of Louisiana's contention that allowing the drug to be mailed there makes moot the state's ban on abortion at all stages of pregnancy.
'Every abortion facilitated by FDA's action cancels Louisiana's ban on medical abortions and undermines its policy that "every unborn child is human being from the moment of conception and is, therefore, a legal person"'' the ruling states.
Mifepristone is involved in most abortions in the US
Man, it's just so good to hear this kind of language from a judge.
Next up, will Louisiana deliver us ANOTHER monumental Supreme Court ruling?
