As usual a split decision along party lines. The entire US judicial system has lost its mind.
It's clear at this point that judges pick the outcome they want then find ways to interpret the case, precedent, etc. to fit. You can see it in the dissent here. https://www.ca5.uscourts.gov/opinions/pub/24/24-60370-CV1.pdf https://www.ca5.uscourts.gov/opinions/pub/24/24-60370-CV1.pd...

Since one side is blatantly criminal and the other is somehow less criminal, electing successive governments from the less criminal side would be the best possible course.
