This is one of the more remarkable judicial decisions I’ve ever read.

If it stands, the Commander in Chief of all of the Nation’s forces is forcibly reduced to a commander in junior — junior to both Governor Newsom and junior to Judge Breyer.

And, as if that were not enough of a blunt insult to presidential power, Judge Breyer orders plaintiffs to post a mere $100 bond to get the benefit of the temporary injunction he just ordered to take effect at noon tomorrow. Jaw-dropping.

$100 of damage is a threshold easily exceeded by the damage that *just one rock* dropped or thrown from an overpass could cause to a passing vehicle. If you believe those saying some of the protesters are being paid $200 per day, the $100 — in total — is pocket change for just one small group of rioters to pay, let alone their lawyer collaborators.

$100 secures no rights whatsoever to the people of the United States, if Breyer is eventually reversed here.

Judge Breyer makes a mockery of our Constitution as well as of both federal statutory and procedural law. He has not just abused his discretion, he has tortured it beyond all recognition.
