All of Maine's federal judges recuse themselves from Rep. Laurel Libby's lawsuit against House speaker

Source: Portland Press Herald

All of Maine’s active federal judges have recused themselves from a Republican state lawmaker’s lawsuit against the Speaker of the House.

Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, and six of her constituents filed the suit in U.S. District Court in Bangor on Tuesday in response to Libby’s party-line censure by the Legislature last month.

Democrats argued Libby crossed a line by including photos of a transgender high school athlete as part of her criticism of Maine’s policy of allowing transgender athletes to compete in girls sports.

Libby’s case is being referred to a federal judge from Rhode Island but will still be considered in Maine, according to an order from Chief Judge Lance Walker issued Wednesday morning.

In the Press Hearld. No one mentioned her nazi defense. She's the reason trump singled out Mills. She's a MTG/ Boebart wanna be. She bleeds faux news. The nazi statement was last year when she cried about the legislation to prevent Nazi/ White supremacist from starting training camps in Maine. And she doxxed a minor to sow terror. It's how they roll.
