“Watch this this weekend.”

It’s Monday, and this weekend there was a reprieve from one of those damned activist librul judges! L.A. Times:

JACKSON, Miss. — A federal judge Sunday temporarily blocked enforcement of a Mississippi law that could shut down the only abortion clinic in the state.

U.S. District Judge Daniel P. Jordan in Jackson issued a temporary restraining order the day the new law took effect and set a July 11 hearing to determine whether to block it for a longer time.

“Though the debate over abortion continues, there exists legal precedent the court must follow,” Jordan wrote. [...] “Plaintiffs have offered evidence — including quotes from significant legislative and executive officers — that the act’s purpose is to eliminate abortions in Mississippi. They likewise submitted evidence that no safety or health concerns motivated its passage. This evidence has not yet been rebutted.“
