According to NBC News, “Alabama Republicans rejected calls to draw a second majority-Black congressional district this week, instead creating maps that Democrats and advocates say completely ignore a recent ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court. A federal court ordered the state to redraw its congressional map last year to include two districts where Black voters make up voting-age majorities, ‘or something quite close to it.’ The Supreme Court affirmed the ruling this year, prompting the Legislature to call a special session to redraw the map this week. But on Friday, the Republican-controlled Legislature is poised to pass a map with just one majority-Black seat.”
So, RepubliKKKlans are doing something that I actually said Democrats need to start doing: Ignore SCOTUS rulings with which they disagree. I am not going to be a hypocrite and condemn RepubliKKKlans for taking my advice, but this is where the two parties evince their political chops, namely that RepubliKKKlans always play political hardball with ruthlessness, while dumbass Democrats are still approaching politics as pathetic wimps who are stuck on a “can’t we all just get along” mentality. I’m getting ready f***ing sick of Democrats always playing by the rules and then getting out-maneuvered by RepubliKKKlans. This goes way back to Obama, during whose administration Democrats completely dropped the ball and lost 1000+ seats in state legislatures. We are still trying to recover from this, which is why Alabama can get away with what it’s doing by refusing to redraw the maps to add one congressional Black district.
And to remind f***tards out there, SCOTUS has absolutely no enforcement mechanisms — there is no SCOTUS police to force people and government to abide by their rulings. Their power is entirely derived from their legitimacy, which is weakening, given their rulings and scandals. Indeed, SCOTUS must rely on lower courts to sanction parties breaking the law, but even then, what will lower courts do? Sanction lawmakers for not creating an additional congressional Black District? Hold them in contempt? Throw them in jail? None of that sh*t is going to happen. So, in effect, RepubliKKKlans can and will continue to disenfranchise Black voters with impunity. And guess what? No one can do a f***ing thing about it except keep suing, in which case the state will continue to ignore whatever the courts say. And no one cares. Look, f***tards! As I have repeatedly and frequently said on countless occasions, RepubliKKKlans have reached critical mass — especially in the South — whereby red states are completely immune from the dictates of the courts and the ire of their voters. Eh, but whatever. It’s already too late. Welcome to stupid America!
