The Supreme Court (R) gutted the Voting Rights Act and will let racist gerrymanders stand.
The Supreme Court just reinstated the Republican-drawn map of Louisiana's House districts that was blocked by a judge who found it likely discriminates against Black voters. The three liberal justices dissented.

A year of work proving Louisiana's congressional map discriminates against Black voters. A 152-page district court opinion finding discrimination, upheld in a 33-page opinion by the most conservative federal court in the nation. Taken away by 6 justices in an act of raw power. https://t.co/PhJ9iROha1

This afternoon, the Supreme Court reinstated Louisiana's GOP-passed congressional map, halting a lower court's decision that it was a racial gerrymander. https://t.co/yLVYlV4gZd pic.twitter.com/2j2Eqbj7wL

also the supreme court: https://t.co/Lg7YxZkkM3
Let's be very clear. The 5 radical justices of the Supreme Court are unhinged right now. In multiple cases, they have ignored not just precedent and personal pledges like in Roe, but basic facts in the school prayer and voting rights case, just to get their partisan way. https://t.co/fo2pGlCnG3
