U.S. Supreme Court Delivers Redistricting Win for Republicans — Decision Could Nuke the ‘Cheat Code’ the Left Uses to Retain Power in Urban Areas
The U.S. Supreme Court just sidelined Wisconsin’s highest court and delivered a significant win for Wisconsin Republicans, who were trying to throw out a state legislative map that included a new majority-Black district.
SCOTUS issued a 7-2 decision reversing the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s selection of Governor Tony Evers’s legislative maps. The per curiam decision said, “We agree that the court committed legal error in its application of decisions of this Court regarding the relationship between the constitutional guarantee of equal protection and the VRA.”
The Wisconsin voters represented by the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) joined the Wisconsin Legislature in an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court on March 7. The appeal argued the maps submitted by Governor Tony Evers and selected by a majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court are a racial gerrymander that violates the Constitution’s equal protection guarantees. The U.S. Constitution makes clear that any government action based on race is subject to strict scrutiny.
Red State explains the significance of the ruling:
“This decision is just the latest step by the Supreme Court to limit the ability of the Voting Rights Act to serve as a partisan tool for Democrats to racially gerrymander for their own political gain. For decades, Democrat officeholders have used the VRA test of proportionality to ensure they retain power in predominately urban areas while ignoring all other factors. The conservatives on the Supreme Court are not keen to let that continue and have been chipping away at such practices for several years now.
In the end, Democrats aren’t freaking out because of the possibility of losing a single, state-level district in Wisconsin. No one, including Justices Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor, actually cares about that. Rather, they are freaking out because this decision is much farther reaching and could completely nuke the left’s ‘cheat code’ regarding redistricting in the future.”

Are there any EZAZ volunteers in the South area of Phoenix who are able to get out and get signatures for the candidates in this area? Contact Lisa at 480-370-8876. The SOS changed the number of signatures needed and many of our candidates have to rush to get those much higher numbers!!! Too many have been pulled off the equal system so we need door knockers!!!

Just got this... The North Valley Constitutional Republicans
**THIS IS URGENT**
WE’RE BEING ATTACKED!
Maricopa County attorney Allister Adel resigned a few days ago. If she waited until April 5th, a Republican would have had to been appointed. She didn’t wait. Sorros got to her. The democrat that lost to her registered to run for the position. She was able to get 4200 signatures in 8 hours! Think about that. She is funded by Sorros. Her name is Julie Gunnigle, she’s a communist!
This is so vital. If we lose Republican Maricopa County attorney representation, Phoenix will turn into Seattle, Portland, Los Angles, etc. This is vital. I will alert you as to who we are going to support. When I do, you really need to go online and sign the petition. After you do, you will need to send it to 2 people. I can’t stress how important this is. Please do this. Our state hinges on Maricopa County.
We must fight! Or suffer the consequences! This DIRECTLY affects your daily life.

Please donate. Its money well spent, & the most effective way to attack the Propaganda Media, & guarantee you get truthful, honest knews. Think about how much that money you donate pisses off & dismantles the NYT, the Washington Post, CNN & MSNBC. Because that’s what a donation to UncoverDC does: it drives another nail in the coffin of the lying corporations that hate you. ⬇️

In order to beat legacy media, we need a well funded alternative with integrity. Part of what stops us from getting there is, well, us.
BuzzFeed makes $380m a year, and I get attacked for asking for voluntary contributions of $5 a month.

Because people are too concerned about how high they can push the bank acct & how many vacations they can take instead of doing the hard work to take freedom back.
Im starting to realize some of the people who bitch the most about politics & the news dont really give a damn about america, our rights or anything- except their bank accounts.
People sit around their living rooms at gatherings & bitch & complain endlessly but never lift a finger. Never volunteer to be a poll watcher. Bitch about news liars but buy the Fox business app. Dont have $5 to throw at uncoverdc or oan or RSBN but take multiple vacations a year. So fucking sick of it. We dont lose because of the left, we lose because of us.
They bitch & complain the same tired, repeated shit every day, laugh at memes, and mock those doing this to us and then go back to work and take it. And never do a damn thing about it.
And the Left knows us better than we do & that we’ll never change. America is doomed, if we dont change.

Think about how the founding fathers had their homes burned to the ground by the Redcoats.
Think about rationing & sacrifice Americans made during World War II.
Now, people cant even be bothered to give up the cost of a happy meal at McDonald’s to fund outlets like OAN, RSBN & UncoverDC.
People cant be troubled to give up 1 day a year to work the polls.
If this doesn’t change, America is doomed, and so is freedom.
