Brace yourselves. The rulings on the census citizenship question and North Carolina partisan gerrymandering are being handed down today. I expect the conservative court to officially legalize Republican cheating.

But we lose 5-4 on the census.
Who knows though. Guess we find out later today sometime.

(23,083 posts)He's another trumpian person who lies every time he opens his mouth because if he rules pro-gerrymandering and pro the citizenship question, he will have put partisan politics over the constitution twice and the constitution will start to wither because it only limits what Democrats want to do and is totally invalid when it comes to restraining Russian Repugs. That is what I expect, but I am hoping I'm wrong and that Roberts actually gives a damn about our laws. We'll know later.
