Sen. Gogurt taking notes on a criminal conspiracy@ugarles.bsky.social |
The claim that political gerrymandering is non-justiciable is risible and the most overtly political thing the Supreme Court has done, in an era of hilariously partisan rulings. There is simply no "good faith" to be found in an enterprise so focused on partisan advantage and subjugation.

If a Democratic state legislature did this, they'd be all over it.

just arrest them. Call these rulings what they are, illegal partisan abuses of office, arrest the conservative judges for violating their oaths and official corruption(which is what partisan behavior IS by a judge), and appoint replacements.

Redistricting is objectively NOT "inescapably political... You just don't let the ruling party unilaterally control redistricting.

It is patently absurd that the court states you can dilute the voting power of a racial minority, so long as it is only because you were actively trying to rig an election.

Evidently, if you make your party so hostile to the interests of African Americans that the Justices can't tell the difference between partisan and racial motivations, you can do all the racial gerrymandering you like.

Essentially it is wrong to discriminate against black people when drawing districts unless black people vote for Democrats, then it's fine.

They're going to strike down independent redistricting committees next. That first sentence is going to be the basis for it. The counterrevolutionaries on the court want every state to be like Wisconsin.

Very frustrating that we are inching closer to the point where we have to have someone on camera, live, saying that they want to do something strictly outlined as unconstitutional, in order to stop them. No critical thinking or appeals to different levels/types of causation allowed.

"The Constitution entrusts Congress with the primary responsibility for writing tax law, and tax law is an inescapably political enterprise. Claims that a tax law is unconstitutional because it was written to achieve a partisan end are not judiciable in federal court."

Feels like they're essentially saying "we can't say it's racism when partisanship is involved, and partisanship isn't racist", am I understanding that correctly? It's so bonkers.
