SCOTUS is making a great case for instituting term limits.
BREAKING: New evidence shows that Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito LIED in his ruling to gut the Voting Rights Act, using fake evidence from the Trump administration claiming that racism was over!
An analysis by the Guardian reveals that MAGA Justice Alito, whose wife flew January 6th flags outside their home, copied “almost verbatim” a filing from the Trump administration that claimed that “the kind of discrimination that once made the Voting Rights Act necessary no longer exists.”
Anyone who has ever set foot in the South can tell you that is 100% not true, and there is actual data to back that up. But that didn’t stop Alito from
“Vast social change has occurred throughout the country and particularly in the South, where many Section 2 suits arise,” Alito wrote in a majority opinion in the case, which concerned Louisiana’s congressional map, joined by the five other conservative justices on the court. “Black voters now participate in elections at similar rates as the rest of the electorate, even turning out at higher rates than white voters in two of the five most recent Presidential elections nationwide and in Louisiana.”
But the Trump DOJ study that “produced” this “evidence” “relied on a statistical methodology that is not preferred by experts in determining statewide voter turnout,” meaning they cooked the numbers to get what they wanted: data that could be used to justify stripping political power away from Black communities and instituting Jim Crow 2.0.
Republicans began doing so immediately, redrawing districts in Tennessee, Alabama, and Louisiana to dilute the power of Black votes and enact one-party Republican rule, and of course it is all based on fake numbers because nothing matters except the pursuit of power and the punishment of nonwhite minorities.
The Supreme Court is a fundamentally broken institution. Our democracy should not be held hostage by six unelected right-wing bigots who never face any consequence or accountability for their actions.
“Lying in a legal briefing would get you disbarred as a regular lawyer. But when you’re an unelected, lifetime appointee with powers to write decisions that completely undo & remake the Constitution, the decision gets to stand & you get to keep your lifetime position. Outrageous!” raged civil rights lawyer Scott Hechinger on Twitter.
Once we take back Congress and the Senate, we need to abolish the filibuster, pack the court, and go scorched earth on the Republican Party. Because if we don’t, they’ll do it to us – and then we’ll be subjected to one party-rule forever.
