Turning the 9th District Court of Appeal into an 80% constitutionalist conservative court is a miracle.
A miracle.
And it is producing huge dividends.

Federal appeals court sides with Trump administration in family planning case
A federal appeals court sided with the Trump administration on Monday in declining to block a rule that restricts what federally funded family planning providers can tell patients about abortion.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the plaintiffs in the case, including several states, Planned Parenthood and Essential Access Health, would not succeed because the rule is a "reasonable interpretation" of the law.
With four judges dissenting, the court let stand its earlier decision to overturn injunctions on the rule issued by lower courts.
Judge Sandra S. Ikuta cited the Supreme Court's ruling in favor of similar rules that were issued by the Reagan administration.
"In light of Supreme Court approval of the 1988 regulations and our broad deference to agencies’ interpretations of the statutes they are charged with implementing, plaintiffs’ legal challenges to the 2019 rule fail," she wrote.
The Department of Health and Human Services issued rules last year banning recipients of Title X federal family planning funding, like Planned Parenthood, from referring women for abortions.
