Moderate Republicans have been campaigning against the Voting Rights Act since August 7th, 1965. It’s been a primary factor in the Federalist Society domination of the federal courts system, particularly following the election of George Bush Jr.
Abbott v. Perez
Bartlett v. Strickland
Brnovich v. Democratic National Committee
Georgia v. Ashcroft
We’ve been chipping away at this thing for over 20 years. They’re running out of provisions to gut, nevermind a DOJ willing to faithfully prosecute under its provisions.
Okay lefties, get squabbling.
“If you wanted the right to vote, you should have voted harder” is one hell of a take.
The US is a country of, by, and for fascists. But the VRA has been a target of Neo-Confederate White Nationalists specifically. Their party is the Republican Party.

Exactly so. They played the long game. Solidifying their voting bloc, using any means necessary to ensure both election victories and select court appointments.

Voting harder isn’t a thing, but the circular firing squad is. When the leftists quadruple down on hating ‘liberals’ and screaming their finely crafted FSB talking points, we will once again miss a window of opportunity to take back some ground. Just like they hated Hillary and that’s how we got Gorsuch, Boof, and Amy Covid to finally give Roberts the death knell he’s sought all along.
Republican squabbling is close to non-existent except for variations in extremes. Being called a genocider by someone who (theoretically) shares 90% of the same political opinions is our lot. And it’s about to crank up again for November.
WILL ‘the left’ / ‘progressives’ / ‘liberals’ / ‘democrats’ be able to support the same thing in November?? Only TIME . . will tell. But the odds are really not great.

I think you think this is much more poignant than it actually is.
Yes, in order to keep thee right to vote, you may need to vote against the people who openly want to fuck it up. How is this still controversial?
why do you refer to fascists as “moderate republicans”?

Biden tried hard to win them back by telling everyone what great pals he was with Strom Thurmond and going after efforts to desegregate schools
What a eulogy. Truly the statesman of our generation, standing up for poor disenfranchised segregationists like that.
Likely a tomato tamato situation.
