[REDSTATEWARD]

That would be a great day for democracy if they followed the VRA and reversed Shelby v Holder,  9-0. 

Shelby v Holder was a common sense view of voting in 2013 America, not 1965.

As Red just proved, it’s time to take American Conservatism and the republican party for that last swim in its bathtub.

Shelby v Holder was is a white supremacist backlash against black people exercising political power.

On Feb. 24, the center updated its account to reveal that “as of February 19, 2021, state lawmakers have carried over, prefiled, or introduced 253 bills with provisions that restrict voting access in 43 states.”

This is the real war for democracy in the United States.  The narrative that all this effort is to protect the "sanctity" of the electoral process is deeply false.

“When a party’s electoral strategy depends on fewer people voting it means they know their policies suck.”

I think y’all have heard me say this for years.

Here’s another soul who should have been listening to you for years,

And as soon as the SC rolled back voting rights with their decision, slumbering racism and voter suppression became fully woke and went into action.

It was a terrible decision for democracy.

Only a small part of why republicans should never again have any say as to who sits on the Supreme Court.

Republicans cannot be trusted to stand by their principles because they have none.

They don’t give a shit about governing they’re only concerned with control.

What they’re aiming for is minority ruled autocracy.

Topsy time for the old GOP. Too much blood on its tusks to be part of the show anymore. Will it be Tesla or ConEdison that does the honors?

Will it count as a sports moment so we can try to invest in the clip?

What I learnt today:
If a man and woman sleep in the same bed all night, have consensual sex before falling asleep, she awakens to find him having sex with her again, he can be classed as a rapist.
One of ScoMo's cabinet ministers is allegedly accused of doing this 33 years ago...the woman involved allegedly making a statement to the police last year, withdrawing the statement soon after, then committing suicide shortly after...reportedly.
Minister will be identifying himself and making a statement tomorrow.
This is what can happen when a man gets intimate with any woman who is not his wife...or is his wife.
It's clear that the law must be changed to make it law that a man must get written and dated...and day, time, and date stamped video consent, which consent is then irrevocable.

No grey areas.
