July 5, 2019 “They gathered together against Moses and Aaron” Korach 16:3

When last week the partisan Supreme Court permitted state legislatures their anti-democratic computerized gerrymandering, the justices completed their repudiation of voting rights enshrined in the 14th and 15th Amendments of the Constitution. In addition to the current decision, Citizens United, Shelby v. Holder, Husted v A Phillip Randolph Inst., Crawford v Marion County, and Abbot v Perez, together decree the justices’ new definition of democracy: Unlimited corporate and dark money contaminating elections, nullification of 1965 Voting Rights Act protections, imposition of discriminatory ID voting requirements, and  sanctioning of racially-discriminatory and political gerrymandering. It’s a partisan revolution.
