Related: About this forumI Broke Down the Supreme Court's Latest Attack on Voting Rights in 4 Minutes - Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock
Multiple judges ruled that Alabamas maps discriminated based on race. Yet the Supreme Court is bending over backwards to let them stand.
This court will do anything to help Republicans stay in power. No matter the cost.
They have lost all semblance of impartiality. - 06/04/2026.

(65,759 posts)1. As for deadlines, the Robert's SC is no different than Mitch McConnell's one sided view of justice
President Obama nominated Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court on March 16, 2016, but McConnell said it was too close to the election in November which was over six months away before *rump would go on to lose, and then instigate an attack against the U.S. Government the following January.
On the other hand Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died on September 18, 2020, about six weeks before the 2020 election and McConnell didn't have a problem in rushing 1st term "rump's last minute choice for SC.
They're just emotionally stunted racists.
Thanks for the thread Rhiannon

The difference between how the Supreme Court DISALLOWED restricting when it was "TOO CLOSE" in 2022 when elections were four months away, and NOW it passed............at only TWO MONTHS from poll voting!
There oughta be a LAW! This is blatantly a "Republican/Trump FIXED vote"!
