The Bangor Daily posted this weekend regarding a federal judge in Maine:
— A federal judge on Saturday ruled that Gov. Janet Mills’ prohibition on in-person worship services does not violate the First Amendment. Calvary Chapel in Orrington and its pastor, Ken Graves, sued the governor in U.S. District Court in Bangor. The lawsuit alleged that Mills’ order, designed to stop the spread of the coronavirus, violated the freedom of religion and assembly clauses of the First Amendment and other laws designed to protect houses of worship.

In Kentucky, there’s a different story. Churches can open.

Who appointed the 3 judges involved in KY, where 1 upheld the complaint and two said barring people to go to church is constitutional?

He upheld the church complaint and issued the temporary restraining order.

Are we seeing a pattern here? Judicial tyranny against the First Amendment must be stopped. Judges who use their bench to trash the Constitution must be removed. What say you?
