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.”

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.

🎥 "I weep not only for my parents, but also for the South." Democracy Docket's @ashleycleaves.bsky.social is from Louisiana — and Wednesday's Supreme Court decision gutting the Voting Rights Act hits close to home. But the implications stretch far beyond her home district: https://bit.ly/4tZKKVT

Democracy has always been under attack in our country, @marcelias.bsky.social says. Now is not the time to back down. Now is the time to fight back. “If we give up now, if we just lose hope, then we are doing Donald Trump’s bidding.”

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.

Hakeem Jeffries had a simple message after Trump falsely implied Jeffries’ rhetoric had caused the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner: “Every time Donald Trump wakes up or posts in the middle of the night attacking me, it’s clear we’re getting to him ..." Jeffries told Marc Elias.

In both Virginia and Alabama, the people have voted in special and primary elections. But the courts are deciding whether it counted. Democracy Docket Legal Content Editor Ashley Cleaves explains how the redistricting fights in these states are strikingly similar.

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.

Trump: "You'll start to see very soon. No country will see the growth that we're going to experience."

Eden Hazard on replacing Ronaldo: “I never went to Real Madrid to replace him. The media created that narrative. I have completely different style. I couldn’t score 60 or 70 goals a year, in fact, I barely scored that many in my entire career. I went there to play like Eden, not to replace Ronaldo."
