The strange part....

She makes this ridiculous claim that black people are disabled ( that no black person on this board to my knowledge has challenged)

Yet - She was born in Washington DC, and raised in Miami Fl......Mother was a teacher and principle, and Father graduated from Miami school of law and was the chief attorney for the Miami - Dade county School Board........This is in the 70's and 80's - Does not seem like THIS black family was disabled......So, is she full of it (my opinion) or is her family some black super race we don't know about and all other black people are below her?

Thick or thin skinned - it is an outright lie.

I was listening to some of the oral arguments in front of the Supreme Court and was wondering if anyone was paying attention to this case.

This hinges on the Fourteenth Amendment and equal protection. Everyone should have the same chance, but not necessarily the same outcome.

Justice Sotomayor said that Whites won’t vote enough for Blacks so Blacks should get special districts set aside for them. The solicitor general made the point to Sotomayor that she thinks that if an area had a majority of Black Democrats they should get a second district but if an area had a majority of White Democrats, everyone knows that they wouldn’t get a second district. Because Democrats in an area “happen to be Black”, they get a second district. He concluded with the comment that it is the very definition of race subordinating traditional principles.

 Then we come to Brown-Jackson. The solicitor general says that the plaintiffs wanted another majority Black district. She cut him off saying the plaintiffs didn’t say that, they said “we are not receiving equal electoral opportunities because our votes are being diluted”. His response was, “which is the same thing as saying we deserve another Black district”. Her response? “No it’s not”. Uhhhh… yeah B-J, it is. She literally said that the second Black district was a remedy (allowing to overcome the Fourteenth Amendment) but when confronted,  denied that it was what the plaintiffs were asking for as a remedy. So it’s a remedy but it’s not a remedy. 🤣

It would be like someone saying, he said that she was beautiful. The B-J response would be, that’s not what he said. He says that she was pretty and stunningly attractive. That isn’t the same as beautiful!! 

B-J then went on to say that it was like the ADA which gave access to people with disabilities, the voting system was a disadvantage to Blacks because they are disabled. She is equating the right to vote with the outcome of the vote….. after earlier that they weren’t asking for a second Black district. 🤔

The Nuclear Option.

The Democrats didn’t like the long standing rules in the Senate so they changed them under Obama. 

 Then it came back to haunt them when Trump loaded the Supreme Court using the changed rules.

Joe Manchin saved the Democrats today by voting with the Republicans just before he left office as they tried to do the same thing for normal legislation.

 The Democrats assumed that Trump would lose so they wanted a simple majority to be able to enact any law in unrestricted fashion. Had the legislation passed, Trump could pass any bill he desires today with the Democrats left completely out of the loop.
