Democrats Decide the Virginia Supreme Court is a "Threat to Democracy"
Making the Argument with Nick Freitas
Supreme Court Voting Rights Act Rulings
Nick summarizes the Court's narrower Section 2 VRA interpretation and its impact on race-based districting orders.
The Party that spent four years screaming 'Threat to Democracy' is now, in response to LOSING a vote, literally plotting to fire every judge on the Virginia Supreme Court - not because the court was wrong, but because the court was inconvenient.
