Damn this is heartbreaking. OP’s sister was doing everything right to manage her extremely difficult condition and responding to psychosis warning signals in a responsible manner. But it was fucking Samsung suddenly turning ads on her fridge that ended up being cryptic and creepy. Lawsuit-worthy imo
This Pluribus ad on a fridge caused a schizophrenic woman named Carol to be hospitalized.

![screenshot 1/2:
Fed’n of Am., Inc. v. Kennedy, Civil Action 1:25-cv-11913 (the “Planned Parenthood
litigation”). In the action now before the court, twenty-two States2 and the District of Columbia
(the “Plaintiff States”) claim, inter alia, that Section 71113 failed to provide clear notice to States
that participate in the joint Federal / State Medicaid program, as required by the Spending Clause of the United States Constitution.
Pending before the court is the Plaintiff States’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction [Doc.
No. 60] seeking to enjoin Defendants from implementing or enforcing Section 71113 pending a final ruling on the merits of this case. For the reasons stated infra, **Plaintiff States have standing to bring this action and have demonstrated a substantial likelihood of success on their claim that Section 71113 fails to provide clear notice as required by the Spending Clause of the United States Constitution. Accordingly, the Plaintiff States’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction [Doc.
No. 60] is GRANTED,** as set forth below.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4fdfjfnhhyeo4hsmoxpeazsg/bafkreiavodz243ugugcwghxcaiho4zetcy3rl64mb7ghuyu6wbk5fwgtwq@jpeg)
![screenshot 2/2:
Here, Defendants have not shown that they are likely to prevail on appeal where Plaintiff
States, as discussed at length above, have shown a substantial likelihood of success on their
Spending Clause claim. Accordingly, a stay pending appeal is DENIED.
**To assist in orderly review, however, the court finds it prudent to administratively stay the injunctive relief granted herein for seven days, to allow Defendants, if they so choose, to file an appeal and seek a stay on the merits in the appellate court.** See Fed. R. Civ. P. 62(d).
V. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, Plaintiff States’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction [Doc. No. 60] is GRANTED.
It is hereby ORDERED that:
1. Defendants, their agents, employees, appointees, successors, and anyone acting in
concert or participation with Defendants are hereby enjoined from enforcing, retroactively
enforcing, or otherwise applying the provisions of Section 71113 of “An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14,” against the Plaintiff States.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4fdfjfnhhyeo4hsmoxpeazsg/bafkreietkv5nv6b3vkq5odfpfjaoio6h75tgm3fwy6wckakiitjhifc5pe@jpeg)
