Supreme Court: No More Racial Gerrymandering; Mehdi Hasan: Time to Rig the Court Instead

Today, the Supreme Court ruled states can't gerrymander by race.

The Supreme Court’s just said that you can’t gerrymander by race and all the people who claim not to be racist are really angry that they can’t be racist.

Twitter's most prolific racists are indeed, very upset about the ruling.

If the Democrats don't make rebalancing and expanding the Supreme Court a top priority for whenever (if?) they next get into power, then I don't know what to say anymore. The GOP-packed court is the biggest block on progress in this country and has been for a while. https://t.co/N07CDsfVhD

Mehdi Hasan, a person who should never have been an American citizen to begin with, believes the answer to this is packing the courts.

Go back to Pakistan. You have no understanding of the Supreme Court. Go away.

You might not understand American politics. Why don't you stick with explaining the British system?

He should stick with not involving himself in American politics.

I hope SCOTUS will make denaturalization and deportation easier. This way we can give you the boot.

That would be lovely.

Trump should just expand the court now. He'd just be doing what you are asking for.

Then, the Democrats would just make it bigger the first chance they get.

The left: we’re anti fascist and anti-king

Also the left: let’s take a the nation’s highest court that’s proven itself to be self-regulating for centuries, expand it and pack it with judges who only agree with us without allowing the public to have any kind of say

Democrats had unified power after 2008 and after 2020. They did not pack the Court because even their own members knew it was an institutional grenade.

One 6-3 ruling on racial gerrymandering and suddenly the institution needs to be dismantled.

Stop the power panic.

All throughout the 60s-90s democrats had the court. Only when conservatives haves favorable SC do they want to pack it.

The GOP didn't 'pack the court.'

There are 9 justices.

Dems can actually pack the court if they get into power, but then the wheels come off and SCOTUS can be delegitimized as an institution and 60 years of progressive jurisprudence can be fully shredded.

If people like Hasan… https://t.co/q7jwlIzdoR

Democrats are mad Trump got to make so many picks because fate stepped in. They can't accept it.

How is it a "GOP-packed" court?

Republicans won elections and got judges confirmed. At most you can whine Mitch McConnell "stole" one seat, but even then, the Democrats could have prevented that by winning in 2016. They lost.

And Joe Biden himself had said decades earlier… https://t.co/zoZ9cNJnFl

As Obama said, 'win elections'.
