The Supreme Court’s decision gutting the Voting Rights Act was the worst opinion of @marcelias.bsky.social’s lifetime. “We are going to see Republicans…try to use this to try to delegitimize, to try to say it is illegitimate for any community of Black voters to elect their candidate of choice.”

Florida is the latest state to join Republicans attempting to gerrymander their way to electoral victory. But will they actually come out on top when the dust settles? @marcelias.bsky.social is joined by @ashleycleaves.bsky.social to break down their predictions. https://bit.ly/4dclNAk

South Carolina’s failure to redraw its congressional map to dismantle the state’s lone majority-Black district is no small victory, @marcelias.bsky.social said. “At least in that one state, for this one election, Black voters will continue to be able to elect their candidate of choice.”

1. 🧵"If you are taking seats from Black people...then you are a thief." Baton Rouge civil rights activist Gary Chambers said the quiet part out loud Friday as GOP lawmakers push to wipe out Louisiana’s majority-Black districts. See the heated exchange👇

Louisiana's governor suspending an election goes far beyond redrawing maps. “If you think this is going to end with redistricting...you are not paying attention to what Donald Trump and the Republicans are getting us ready for come this fall,” says @marcelias.bsky.social. Here's what we can do 👇

The Supreme Court decision gutting the Voting Rights Act is compounded by the cultural effects that the ruling is already having. “[The decision] gave a permission structure to those people who want to destroy democratic norms,” Marc Elias said.

Trump wants $1.8 billion for a slush fund dedicated to victims of government "weaponization." But will the DOJ be able to ensure that those named in the Epstein files won’t be eligible? Sen. Chris @vanhollen.senate.gov (D-MD) pressed acting Attorney General Todd Blanche on the issue.

If the Supreme Court rules in Trump’s favor in the birthright citizenship case, a U.S. passport will be the only way to prove citizenship. “If you don’t have [a U.S. passport], you’re not going to be able to register to vote,” Marc Elias said.

During this tumultuous time for democracy in our country, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) is putting his faith in the American people. “Whose constitution is it? It doesn’t belong to the Supreme Court. It doesn’t belong to the federal judiciary. It belongs to us.”

Efforts to erase Black voting power in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision to gut the Voting Rights Act are immoral. How do we fight against it? “We are going to stand up and call out every miscitation, every abuse of this case for other purposes,” Marc Elias said.

I hope she's right, that this is the Confederacy's last dying breath that we're experiencing. But it won't be true unless actual consequences occur. This is the reoccurring sin of this country, evil is never effectively punished.

OKC has Hartenstein go with high P&R for Jalen Williams. It's a tiny adjustment but a solid one from OKC and Hartenstein. Wemby stays in a drop, notice Williams wait for the defense to recover. Hartenstein doesn't go Gortat instead gets another piece of Harper, pullup there.

Gen. Wald: Saying goes that Russia had second-best military in the world before it invaded Ukraine. Now it has second-best military in Ukraine. It’s not just funny, it’s a truism. Ukraine has done a fantastic job of defending itself, shown great courage. We should support them.
