Supreme Court Just Delivered Devastating
News for Dems in Their Redistricting Fight

Original Article

The Supreme Court delivered a major blow to Democrats in their last-ditch effort to implement a gerrymandered map that would have given them a 10-1 advantage. The Court rejected a motion filed by Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones seeking to overturn the state Supreme Court's decision invalidating the map for violations of the state constitution. Questions about when election day begins were the basis for bringing this case into federal court, since it revolves around a state court ruling on a state constitutional issue. It was a last attempt—and it failed. The application for a stay was officially denied by Chief Justice John Roberts this afternoon.

My guess is 5 associate Court Jesters told Chief Jester Roberts not no but Hades no. Roberts, knowing he didn't have the votes and would look like a bigger fool than usual, decided to turn down the request. But we all know Chief Jester Roberts would have loved to stick his nose into state business and create another Obambicare like miracle for Dems.

I think the analytical instincts of #2 are on point. Roberts is too squishy and he was given the bottom line: do the correct thing or just put your clown nose on and get in the dunk tank.

Dem bumblers do yet another faceplant. They are getting really good at them. It is beyond hilarious that this all started with dems thinking they were going to cleverly twist voting districts into the shape they wanted to get more reps. Instead, their basis for torturing districts into winning shapes for them was completely invalidated and left YUGE openings for Republicans, which they immediately took advantage of. It was the difference between dem illegal methods and Republican legal methods and the dems calling attention to the illegal games they were playing. This has become a repeating theme. You would think that dems would want to REALLY stay OUT of court because it seems all they do is catastrophically lose.

My original comment was "this isn't a federal issue, won't be accepted by SCOUTUS'. Yep.

Democrats took shortcuts and used sneaky schemes, wrapped themselves up in the "saving democracy" flag, and hoped that nobody would notice. All they had to do was follow the rules set in the Virginia Constitution. Simple! And their plan would have worked. But, as usual, Democrats thought the rules didn't apply to them and nobody would notice. They got caught and are not reacting like spoiled children being disciplined for the very first time.

Ha. The Supreme Court more than likely dismissed the case because of misspellings (Sentator and Virgnia) and addressing the wrong court (The Supreme Court of Virginia instead of The Supreme Court of the United States).

Left-wing critics have been regularly accusing the Trump family of profiting off Donald Trump’s presidency, but following his father’s historic trip to China, Eric Trump has decided to litigate to stop the accusations. Trump said Friday he will be suing MSNOW, formerly MSNBC, and host Jen Psaki after she implied on her show that the son taking the trip with his father was a conflict of interest and a chance to exploit a computer chip deal. According to the Hill: Psaki said on her show “The Briefing” that ALT5 Sigma, a Las Vegas-based fintech company for which Eric Trump once served as a board observer,

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) worked with law enforcement authorities in Colombia to successfully extradite a suspected high-ranking member of the notorious Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang. Jose Enrique Martinez-Flores, a 24-year-old Venezuelan national, arrived in Houston, Texas, this week and will face drug distribution and terrorism charges. According to the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), Martinez-Flores made his initial court appearance on Friday on charges of providing material support to a foreign terrorist organization and significant drug trafficking offenses. Martinez-Flores, known as “Chuqui,” is alleged to be a high-ranking leader of the hyperviolent Venezuelan Tren de Aragua Gang.

An unborn baby was killed last week in Dallas, Texas, during a gas station shooting. Two illegal aliens were arrested, with at least one who was let into the US during Biden’s term in office. The shooting took place after midnight on May 3rd. Dallas police responded after reports of gunfire and found three victims. One of them was hit numerous times by gunshots. The victims told the police that their car was shot at by the suspects in another vehicle after there was an incident at the local 7-Eleven.

It's official: Florida's Palm Beach International Airport is now President Donald J. Trump International Airport, and the aviation world is catching up. The rename has been in the works for months, driven by state legislation, federal action, and the straightforward reality that Palm Beach is Trump's home turf — Mar-a-Lago sits just a few miles from the runways. The name change takes effect July 1; the code flips from PBI to DJT on July 9. [Tweet] A final rule in the Federal Register sealed it on May 14. The Florida House passed the renaming bill 81–30, and Gov. Ron DeSantis signed it into law on March 30.

Admittedly, I haven’t been paying much attention to the Los Angeles mayoral race, but a LEGO-animated campaign ad caught my attention, and I just had to write about it. The ad, published this week in support of Spencer Pratt's 2026 campaign for mayor of Los Angeles, is making the rounds online, and for good reason. It's a parody of "Everything Is Awesome" from The Lego Movie, set against a LEGO-animated cityscape that tells the dirty truth about the city under Karen Bass’s leadership. It opens with a scene that cuts straight to the truth: a man assaulting a police officer on a city street.

The US Senate on Thursday unanimously approved a resolution to withhold their pay during a government shutdown. The resolution, adopted by voice vote, was authored by Republican Senator John Kennedy (LA). “My resolution to stop senators’ pay during government shutdowns cleared a key procedural vote today, moving it one step closer to final passage,” Kennedy said on Wednesday afternoon ahead of the Thursday vote. “Fair-minded Americans know senators should feel the pain of a shutdown with the American people,” Kennedy said. Kennedy’s resolution suspends Senators’ pay during partial or full government shutdowns. “It’s called shared sacrifice,” Kennedy said.

President Barack Hussein Obama's Presidential Center opens in Chicago's Jackson Park on June 19, and plenty of admirers will treat the moment like a civic holiday with ticketed entry. Nobody should pretend the Obama project reached opening day after some gentle stroll through paperwork. The Obama Foundation chose 19.3 acres inside historic Jackson Park, a public space with deep civic roots, and fought years of legal challenges from Protect Our Parks over public land, process, environmental concerns, and whether the project served the public interest. The center moved ahead anyway, wrapped in the soft language of community, democracy, and uplift. President Donald Trump's planned presidential library in Miami

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is having a rough time right now. For months, the Speaker’s gavel looked to be easily within his reach come November, but recent developments have made it look like it could slip away. He’s a little touchy about it. During a press conference on Wednesday, Jeffries had a bit of a tantrum, not only invoking the Confederacy but snapping at a CNN reporter who dared to ask him a question. Last month, the Supreme Court issued a 6-3 ruling in Louisiana v. Callais, striking down Louisiana’s congressional map as an unconstitutional racial gerrymander. The ruling opened the door for several red states to redistrict

When you’ve gone out of your way to brand yourself as the last morally pure, ideologically consistent man in D.C., your Achilles’ heel is very specific: The moment you’re exposed as being just as self-serving, hypocritical, and full of feces as everyone else, your career is over. Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) built his brand on being so dedicated to transparency, integrity, and libertarian values that not even the president of the United States could get him to budge. Love him or hate him, Massie lives by a moral code: He believes what he believes, and if you don’t like it, too frickin’ bad.

Whoopi went on this rambling tangent about how nobody is running the country. She torched Kash Patel, Pete Hegseth, and basically every official in the Trump administration. "I have no faith in the people who are running anything," she said. "I don't believe in anybody who is running this country right now." Of course, none of them were asking for Whoopi’s endorsement or vote of confidence. Not that that mattered. But, of course, she wasn’t done. She went full theater-of-the-absurd

Inherent Right to Life for … Wild Rice? 9 replies

Minnesota Democrats are advancing legislation that would recognize an “inherent right” for uncultivated wild rice to “exist and thrive,” even as state law continues to uphold expansive abortion “rights.” Senate File 3749 (SF3749), introduced by Senator Mary Kunesh (D-New Brighton) on February 19, 2026, would amend Minnesota’s statute describing the state’s official grain and add language recognizing such a right. The proposal comes three years after Governor Tim Walz signed the Protect Reproductive Options (PRO) Act into law on January 31, 2023. The law codifies abortion as a “fundamental right” in Minnesota statute, and allows the procedure at any stage when deemed necessary for the mother’s health. Wild rice has been Minnesota’s

They caused this, with their soft on crime policies, yet they are mad at Walgreens for closing the location.
