Louisiana governor prepares to suspend House primaries after court ruling

Alito and the conservative justices on the Supreme Court knew exactly what they were doing. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

How to say "Republicans need to cheat to win" without saying the words. The Supreme Court ruled it's okay for reps to choose their voters, not voters to choose their reps. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsACriminal #RepublicansAreDestroyingAmerica www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Hardball it is www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

“It’s naked partisanship, but under the Supreme Court’s approach to voting now, naked partisanship is more of a defense than an indictment” ~ Richard Hasen, dir of UCLA Safeguarding Democracy Project This is what structural racism & snatching away Black ppl’s rights looks like😶

White supremacy. 🤬🤬🤬🤬 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The whole actual fuck www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Canceling elections midstream to redraw maps isn’t “integrity”, it’s power politics, plain and simple. Jeff Landry is halting votes already underway while voices like Cleo Fields warn that this risks disenfranchising voters. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

As Trump has pointed out so often, the 2020 elections were rigged. Now, he is making a very, very honest attempt at making sure future elections cannot be. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

@atrupar.com @ecmclaughlin.bsky.social @meidastouch.com @legalafmtn.bsky.social LA says SCOTUS' ruling effectively PROHIBITS them from carrying out the primaries under the current districts. Jeffrey Epstein, racism, the truth & fear creates the reaction. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202... Pay attention

The klan is alive and well apparently . www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

But people have already begun mailing their votes in, right? This should clearly be criminal, but not with the current SCOTUS apparently. WAPO - Louisiana governor prepares to suspend House primaries after court ruling

Can the governor of louisiana unilaterally suspend primary elections in support of a partisan gerrymander? SCOTUS has blessed the gerrymander itself, but suspending elections in order to obtain the hoped-for gerrymander is a distinct step. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

And it looks like there may be zero districts for black voters. 33% of population & 0% representation in Congress. The USSC took a racial issue, said it was too racial and then handed one race all the power. That’s not a pretzel…. That’s a pointy white hat. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

How’s that successful Virginia gerrymandering going? Still feeling good about those seats? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

There are only 5 Black Republicans in Congress who are free to eliminate Black Democratic seats. Among other failures, Roberts’ SCOTUS owns reversing civil rights: “The 6-3 decision…could lead to other Black Democrats across the South losing their House seats.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Welp - I guess that means Republicans will get whatever they want during midterms. And so will DJT. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
