Kansas’ Kobach suffers humiliating loss in federal court

Following up on a story we’ve been keeping an eye on, it’s been several years since Kansas Republicans first imposed voting restrictions on state residents, including requirements that Kansans show proof of citizenship when registering. The ACLU, among others, challenged the measure in federal court, while Secretary of State Kris Kobach ® personally defended them.
That is, of course, the same Kobach who’s championed voter-suppression techniques at the national level, and helped lead Donald Trump’s ridiculous voting commission, which ended in failure.
So, too, did his defense of the Kansas law. U.S. District Judge Julie Robinson yesterday struck down the measure as unconstitutional.

And while this was clearly an embarrassing outcome for the Kansas Republican – who also happens to be running for governor this year – what made yesterday especially brutal for Kobach was the extent to which the judge in this case humiliated him over his professional standards.

The Wichita Eagle  reported that Robinson, while ruling against the state, “also ordered Kobach, … to take more hours of continuing legal education after he was found in contempt and was frequently chided during the trial over missteps.”
In fact, in this case, Kobach was found in contempt twice.

This fucker apparently knows as much about law as the WLB.

Hahaha, you know you've fucked up your case when the judge sanctions your ass. Too bad he didn't get referred to the bar association as well.

I'm sure this fucker is acquainted with bars.

If that bid for Governor falls through, Kobach can probably add his expertise to that dream team of lawyers representing Trump. He'd fit right in with losers like Giuliani and Sekulow.
