TRUMP WAS RIGHT! Rogue Judge RIPS Texas Map Apart in Outrageous Ruling!

Quick Overview

Judge Jerry E. Smith issued a blistering dissent against Judge Brown's ruling, arguing that Brown's opinion was riddled with misrepresentations and "judicial tinkering" that amounted to being intentionally deceptive at worst, fundamentally disagreeing with Brown's assertion that the 2025 redistricting map, which favored Republicans, should be kept as the status quo.

Key Points: Judge Smith dissents from Judge Brown's opinion, stating he is responsible for any delay in issuing the preliminary injunction and will highlight Brown's judicial misbehavior. Smith criticizes Judge Brown for metaphorically 'murdering' a judicial colleague, Judge Jeffrey Vincent Brown, and for intentionally misleading or being willfully blind to facts. Smith points out that Judge Brown allegedly misquoted the most significant reason for mid-decade redistricting as partisan gain, while actually omitting a crucial word in Justice Stevens' quote (0:04). The dissent argues that Judge Brown's reasoning attempts to bootstrap the likelihood of success from factor one into showing irreparable harm with factor two, which is incorrect under the law (1:32). Smith highlights that Judge Brown's order was replete with legal and factual error, accompanied by 'naked procedural abuse,' demanding reversal (19:40). The dissent notes that Judge Brown claims the plaintiffs broke quorum and delayed the 2025 map passage, but Judge Smith asserts this delay was the State's fault, not the plaintiffs' (13:13). Judge Smith concludes that Judge Brown's actions represent 'judicial tinkering' and that his opinion is 'deeply misleading quote mining at best, intentionally deceptive at worst' (18:15, 17:17).

Context: This video features a legal commentator analyzing the dissent written by U.S. Circuit Judge Jerry E. Smith in a case involving Texas redistricting. Judge Smith's dissent directly attacks the opinion written by U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Vincent Brown, who had issued a preliminary injunction regarding Texas's 2025 congressional redistricting map. The core of the dispute revolves around whether the court should maintain the status quo (the allegedly gerrymandered 2021 map) or implement the new map during an election cycle, with Judge Smith arguing Judge Brown's reasoning was fundamentally flawed and manipulative.
