BREAKING: The Alabama House voted 75-29 to pass legislation that could change the state’s congressional map during ongoing primaries — a last-minute attempt to diminish Black voting power before the midterms in light of SCOTUS’ ruling last week. The measure now heads to the state senate for a vote.

👉 As so many have asked: If John Roberts and his colleagues don’t believe racism is still alive and kicking, then why are so many Red States creating extreme voter suppression laws and gerrymandering the hell out of their states to prevent POC from having equal voting opportunities and rights?

White supremacist Tennessee Republicans on Wednesday proposed yet another gerrymandered congressional map aimed at eliminating the lone majority-Black district, a swift response to last week's racist right-wing SCOTUS ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act. www.timesfreepress.com/news/2026/ma...

Everyone, especially rethuglicans, know how a real, ungerrymandered race would turn out. That’s why they cheat. Rather than change any of their backward policies to appeal to decent people, they put every effort into cheating at every opportunity. And it works for them 90% of the time.

Booth didn't kill Lincoln becuz of the 13th amendment. He heard Abe wanted to give black men the vote and that was a bridge too far. The GOP is giving a 🖕to greatest of their party with this gerrymandering. History won't blink.

The Supreme Court simply said a state CAN be racist but they didn’t rule that they HAVE to be. These Republicans are making the choice to be racist and are proud of it.

and from the Dem controlled states....crickets. The republican states can move w lightning speed to steamroll rights, but the dems can't get an 'emergency vote' put together....even tho it was pretty assured this would happen. And, that people is why we are in this mess.
