Calls to ignore judge reveal Democrats as the real threat to rule of law

Democrats never stop warning about the right’s supposed threat to democracy and the rule of law, yet their calls to ignore a court decision Friday against an abortion pill show just where that threat really comes from.

Texas federal Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk ordered the Food and Drug Administration to hold up its 2000 approval of the abortion drug mifepristone, accusing the agency of having “acquiesced on its legitimate safety concerns — in violation of its statutory duty.”

Kacsmaryk gave the government seven days to appeal; hours later, the Justice Department filed notice that it would.

The ruling, the first to overturn an FDA medical decision, seems highly dubious, and its prospects in the courts remain unclear — especially since another federal court in Washington, less than an hour later, ordered the government not to make changes that would restrict access to the drug.

Nonetheless, Dems immediately demanded the FDA, plus manufacturers and sellers, simply disregard Kacsmaryk — as if court decisions they dislike somehow lack the force of law.

  1. If you don’t want an abortion pill, don’t take it, simple as that. If you want an abortion, don’t get one. No one is forcing abortions on anyone.
