NewsForce(@Newsforce):🇺🇸Fifth Circuit Judge Leslie Southwick is stepping down, handing Trump another lifetime seat on the appeals court that served as the Dobbs pipeline and still launches the biggest conservative legal fights to the Supreme Court. Trump already has Anna St. John pending to replace Judge Engelhardt, and the conservative legal world is already floating Mississippi Solicitor General Scott Stewart for this new vacancy. @MacyGunnell says 2 Fifth Circuit seats at once is how you lock a court in for decades.
