Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

Adam silver I fucking DARE you to give us the 6th pick
The difference right now about the two stars operating area..
Kd is at the top of the floor where it’s easier to get doubled, where five sets of eyes are watching you, and they’re forcing him to pass..
Lebron is in the mid post area, so if you double him from there, it’s a layup for a teammate or wide open 3..
