14. So the Supremes have overturned
Thu Apr 30, 2026, 12:13 PM
Apr 30

the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution?

The Amendments have the same "decades-old data" and "eradicated practices" that justify "extraordinary" federal intrusion into state affairs. The Amendments are why the voting rights act was passed.

Next up overturning the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Now the Dancing Supremes are overturning and rewriting the US Constitution. How special.
