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
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.
