Rep. @brotherjones.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy to @rbreich.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy : “They’re spitting on the graves of our martyrs, bringing us backwards in history… An almost entirely white Republican caucus in Tennessee — that’s the system they’re bringing us back to.” #Memphis #JimCrow

“It’s an insult to the intelligence of the people in this state.” @jeffyarbro.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy shreds the lie🤥from Sen. Stevens & TN Republicans race wasn’t used to make the map, puts it in (racist) historical context, and says they couldn’t racially gerrymander it any better. #Memphis #JimCrow

“How are you proposing a map and you don’t know anything about it?” 🤔🤷🏼 WATCH — Senator John Stevens pathetically ducks all Sen. london lamar very valid questions as he pretends not to know Memphis is a majority-Black city + claims this isn’t about race. #Memphis #JimCrow @GovBillLee

Q: If stripping Memphis of representation is really not about racism, why didn’t a single TN Republican care Black Tennesseans were hurting yesterday? And why were many of them laughing at their pain? #JimCrow @MarshaBlackburn @govbilllee

🗣️ REP. @justinjpearson.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy : “GUILTY, GUILTY, GUILTY… we convict the Tennessee general assembly of exploiting Black people and attempting to dilute Black political power. Governor Lee is guilty. Cameron Sexton is guilty. White supremacy is guilty.” #Jimcrow #WeThePeople

MEMPHIS SENATOR @raumeshakbari : “This is an act of hate. You cannot call it anything but racism. You cannot sugarcoat this.” Tennessee Republicans are diluting Black representation with white power, stripping their seat in Congress. #JimCrow @GovBillLee @MarshaBlackburn

"John Roberts life’s work of repealing the 20th century is essentially complete. What is clear about him is that he is determined to use the Supreme Court to systematically dismantle every outrage against white supremacy and oligarchy that were passed by 20th century congresses and upheld by 20th century Supreme Court majorities:" ~ Joy-Ann Reid #SupremeCourt #JohnRoberts #VotingRights #Callais #GildedAge #JimCrow #corruption /1 https://www.joyannreid.com/p/a-sunday-reid-john-roberts-corrupt
