Just remember, democrats were against gerrymandering until MA, CA and VA did it. Then they were only against it for TX and FL.

Incorrect. Trump called Texas and asked them to redraw. Bien was not the President in 2020.

Do not try arguing with people using crap posted on X. Trump called Texas, then Abbott ordered the redistricting.

Mockery Ensues After Disgraced Virginia Attorney General Makes This EMBARRASSING Mistake While Begging the U.S. Supreme Court to Reinstitute the Democrats’ Rigged Map
Mockery Ensues After Disgraced Virginia Attorney General Makes This EMBARRASSING Mistake While Begging the U.S. Supreme Court to Reinstitute the Democrats' Rigged Map * The Gateway Pundit * by Cullen Linebarger
The Democrats have not been sending their best people for a long time, but at least they can avoid the errors an elementary school child makes.

The Democrats have not been sending their best people for a long time, but at least they can avoid the errors an elementary school child makes.
Not disgraced Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones, however.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the Virginia Supreme Court overturned the Democrat Party’s rigged gerrymandering referendum last week in a 4-3 decision, ruling the entire sleazy process to sneak it onto the ballot was unconstitutional from the start.
This was the latest devastating blow to radical Democrats’ blatant attempt to rewrite Virginia’s congressional maps mid-decade and hand themselves a super-majority in the U.S. House by turning the state from a competitive 6-5 split into a laughably unfair 10 Democrats to 1 Republican slaughter.
~Snip~
On Monday, Jones filed an emergency appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, begging them to restitute the rigged map. But when he filed the appeal, Jones was confused about which court he should send it to.
The appeal shows that he is addressing the Supreme Court of Virginia, not the U.S. Supreme Court. The Justices should throw this out based on the stupid error alone.
xxxxxxxxxx
Commentary:
Just another fine example of a combination of Affirmative Action and DEI.
What could go wring?
Jay Jones was the one who said in social media posts that Virginia GOP opposition speaker Todd Gilbert, and his children “should be shot in the head.”
Classy guy!
It just goes to show once again that Democrat Leftist, radical politics takes precedence over competence.

Supreme Court Denies Virginia Democrats’ Bid to Revive Illegally
Gerrymandered Congressional Map
BREAKING: Supreme Court Denies Virginia Democrats' Bid to Revive Illegally Gerrymandered Congressional Map * The Gateway Pundit * by Cristina Laila
The US Supreme Court on Friday denied Virginia Democrats' bid to restore the illegally gerrymandered congressional map.
www.thegatewaypundit.com
The US Supreme Court on Friday denied Virginia Democrats’ bid to restore the illegally gerrymandered congressional map.
Chief Justice Roberts deferred the case to the full court.
The high court, in an unsigned order, denied the application for a stay and kept the current map in place.
“The application for stay presented to The Chief Justice and by him referred to the Court is denied,” the Supreme Court said in its response.
Last month, the Virginia Supreme Court denied a request from the Democrat Attorney General to pause a lower court order blocking the gerrymander referendum.
Virginia voters previously passed the redistricting referendum that will benefit Democrats and disenfranchise millions of Virginia independents and Republicans.
“The ballot measure gives the Democrat-controlled Virginia legislature — rather than the state’s current nonpartisan commission — temporary redistricting power through the 2030 election. It could have resulted in a 10-1 advantage for Democrats in Virginia’s congressional delegation, up from their current 6-5 edge,” Fox News previously reported.
~Snip~
The US Supreme Court and the Virginia Supreme Court both shut down the Democrat gerrymander.
Commentary:
Democrats like Spamberger, Jefferies and Newsom all believed they do as they please and the People and law would allow them to do so. Now there's Supreme Court ruling that may change the Congressional representation throughout the nation and it would affect Democrat Blue states more than the rest of the nation. California, Massachusetts, and Virginia n particular.

This is what the party fears the most.issuesinsights.com
In a decision that shouldn’t have surprised anyone, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Democrats can no longer create safe electoral fiefdoms based on race to win elections, calling it “racial gerrymandering.” It’s about time.
The ruling essentially “neuters,” as some put it, Section 2 of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. PJ Media scribe Matt Margolis called the decision “one of the most consequential redistricting decisions in a generation.” That’s not hyperbole. And it was long overdue.
While still upholding the landmark Voting Rights Act, a 6-3 conservative majority found that a redrawing of Louisiana’s congressional map to include a second majority-black district violated the 15th Amendment.
However, “In striking down a Louisiana voting map as a racial gerrymander,” the New York Times noted, “the Court opened the door for other states to redraw maps.”
Other media jumped in, some saying the decision “guts” or “eviscerates” the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (it does no such thing; it simply follows the actual language of the bill and of the Constitution’s 15th Amendment).
Can screaming allegations of “racism!” be far behind?
The winner for greatest hyperbole (so far) goes to Esquire, which wrote: “Medgar Evers and Martin Luther King Jr. and Viola Liuzzo did not die just for the conservative majority to commit this heartless act of political vandalism.”
~Snip~
One person, one vote. That’s how Americans and the Constitution see it. Not, “my block of racialized voters, against yours.” Is that a country anyone wants to live in?
Commentary:
This may be one of the most consequential Court decisions in my lifetime. In the best way possible.
The “Great Society Act” was passed in the same manner.
The problem was that the Democrats owned the bureaucracy in DC so they wrote the rules that wound up making the blacks subservient to the Democratic Party. Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan spoke forcefully against it accurately predicting exactly what we see today. More poverty, destruction of the black family etc. Fortunately with Trump and the grownups in charge we are reversing it.
Unfortunately, too many graduates from our “liberal arts” institutions would be shocked to find out that their political party fought a war not to abolish slavery, but to KEEP it!
Democrats are shrieking and their masks are completely coming off, revealing them to be the supreme racists they are.
They'll just start the process all over again using bought lower court judges issuing injunctions, then move onto a higher court. it’s all a dog and pony show. The Democrats have the courts, so someone will step up and stop it. Where's Boasberg when they need him?
Meanwhile with their hair on fire Democrats are screaming foul.

The saga that the lib loon flunkies swore would be overturned in their favor in 24 hours instead swung to a massive and quick defeat from USSC

Actually the decision did not ban racial gerrymandering. It banned it in terms of the VRA but there is no way the court can ban racial gerrymandering. There is nothing in the Constitution that bans racial gerrymandering. The Supreme Court is ignoring the Constitution when it suits their purposes. The Republican Party is racist. Trump is a racist. Those Democrats that you talk about have moved to the Republican Party. Take your shit and shove it.
Texas did it first. In California, voters got to vote on it. Red states do not allow votes.
