Alabama Just Told the Supreme Court to Screw Off
Matt Vespa
July 21, 2023
This year, the Supreme Court ruled that Alabama’s congressional map drawn to reflect the changes in the 2020 census was unconstitutional in a 5-4 decision.
“Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Brett Kavanaugh aligned with the court’s liberals in affirming a lower-court ruling that found a likely violation of the Voting Rights Act in an Alabama congressional map with one majority Black seat out of seven districts in a state where more than one in four residents is Black,” reported the Associated Press in June. “The state now will have to draw a new map for next year’s election.”

The new map must have two majority black districts, the edict handed down by the nation’s highest court. A special session of the state legislature was gaveled in the Heart of Dixie, but the new map didn’t have a second majority-black district. A move that many view as flipping off the Supreme Court. This move by the legislature is bound to fire up liberals (via NBC News):

Talk about a Jacksonian response to the Supreme Court from Montgomery. After weeks of bashing the Supreme Court, undoubtedly, the Left will come to its defense as Alabama stands its ground on its congressional maps...for now.

God bless Alabama. Screw Kavanaugh.

The administration will send troops to Alabama to enforce the Supreme Court's decision.
... while also ignoring the decision about student load forgiveness.
(hey, Comrade Briefers, that's how it works when The Party is in control...)
