On Monday, the chief of the U.S. District Court in Kansas, Judge Julie A. Robinson, popped the bubble of Kobach’s obsession. She ruled, after a lengthy trial, that Kobach, Kansas’s secretary of state, produced no credible support for his theory that large numbers of noncitizens are illegally voting in American elections. Thus, the Kobach-inspired law requiring Kansas voters to provide documentary proof of citizenship is ­unconstitutional because it imposes the burden without a reasonable ­justification.

She also held him in contempt.
She noted that as Secretary of State for Kansas he is responsible for the election process and he has brought exactly zero charges related to election fraud.
She further ordered him back to law school.

Of course he was one of those "nothing but the best people" tapped by Trump.

You'd laugh if it wasn't so sad.

Oh, I love it!

"As a final measure of disdain for the highly educated Kobach, the judge ordered him back to school. Appalled by his apparent lack of courtroom knowledge, Robinson required Kobach to complete a ­refresher course in trial procedure before he can renew his law license — quite a smackdown for a former law professor."

Of course the party of Law and Order, zero-tolerance, and "what is wrong with just following the law" will tolerate Koback instructing his staff to continue on with the unconstitutional program.
