Looks as if the the "liberal"9th Circuit may not be so liberal anymore. What could have possibly happened?

Liberal Ninth Circuit Upholds Trump Admin's Rules on Abortion Funding

The liberal Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday ruled the Trump administration's decision to withhold Title X funding from medical facilities that provide abortion is constitutional. Their decision overturned preliminary injunctions issued by lower courts in three different states, Fox News reported.

The Title X rule was first enacted in 1970, which prohibited taxpayer-funded abortions as "a method of family planning." During President Ronald Reagan's administration in 1988, "merely provid[ing] counseling or referrals for abortion for family-planning purposes" fell under this limitation. The Supreme Court upheld those rules in a 1991 decision.

The regulations were more lax until 2019 when the Trump administration's Department of Health and Human Services decided to pull funding from any facility that provides abortions, abortion counseling or abortion referrals.

"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," Judge Sandra S. Ikuta wrote in the court's opinion. "Accordingly, we vacate the injunctions entered by the district courts and remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion."

The three-judge panel also stated the 1988 rules were more restrictive. Specifically, the Trump administration gave leeway on counseling that may inadvertently address abortion, saying "a counselor providing nondirective pregnancy counseling 'may discuss abortion' so long as 'the counselor neither refers for, nor encourages, abortion.'"

A) Pretty impressive coming from the Ninth.

B) There was historical precedence, and this was less, not more restrictive. This only affirms long established, long ignored, black-letter law that not one dime of the boatloads of Federal money can be used for abortion.

C) Planned Parenthood bailing shows several things:

• The fungibility of funds meant they were using Federal money for abortion, because the non-abortion services (such little they actually were) cannot stand alone, even with Federal money.
• Abortion is immensely profitable, since they are now operating without 50 million in Fed funds.
• Planned Parenthood had no actual interest in Women's "healthcare" since they are turning down 50 million to do just that.
• That all of the ancillary procedures that they counted as non-abortion services were really pre and post abortion related medical encoding.

D) adrina's head is going to explode about not being able to get Federal funding for a procedures she is never going to need.

The takeaway is, Trump has flipped the 9th Circuit. He's put ten justices on that court.

All trumps should be aborted.

I hope that's the ruling.

Exactly.
As we were admonished...,

elections have consequences.
Perhaps the party's choice, Secretary Clinton
was not the best possible choice to keep control of the courts.

This may be Trump's greatest legacy, to have given at least one or two more generations a life under our Constitution.
