The Supreme Court upholds the reach of the Voting Rights Act, ruling that Alabama must draw an election district that would likely favor a Black Democrat.
This one really weirds me out. Why would they rule in favor of decency in this case? It is very out of character and feels a bit like we are being set up for some weird gotcha.
We still need to add more judges to balance out the racist, misogynist, homophobic bigots if we want a legitimate supreme court again.
Court packing is a dangerous precedent to set. The second we start increasing the limits then there’s little stopping political parties to continue increasing the size of the supreme court to suit their current political agenda.
Gven the demographics, the fact that 87% of new voters are registering blue, there’s little chance of the Republicans holding the house and practically zero chance of them taking the Senate. Assuming That’s the case, they can pack the court with a bunch more moderates, induced term limits, impeach the corrupt Clarence Thomas and Justice lido, and set a static ratio for the number of justices versus the population of the country. There there’s no demographic scenario where that would be reversed, at least not any time in the foreseeable future with 83,000 votes turning blue everyday.
And frankly, the future of the world is at stake, the skies are filled with smoke and the planet is burning and we are currently in the sixth mass extinction of species on the planet. having a conservative court will potentially cause problems as we attempt to deal with climate change moving forward. there is no choice but to pack the court.

Might be because they want to look like they have more legitimacy than they actually have.
