The Supreme Court has ruled in Trump’s favor 90% of the time—often in secret, without a word.

That’s not justice.
That’s a shadow government.

And John Roberts is at the helm.

Tell Congress: Protect voting rights. Pass the Redistricting Reform Act! This October, the Supreme Court heard arguments in the case about Louisiana’s gerrymandered maps. The case gives the MAGA justices the opportunity to gut what’s left of the Voting Rights Act. If they do, Louisiana could lose both of its majority-Black congressional districts. This case comes in the middle of a massive redistricting fight in states across the country. Republican legislatures in states like Texas and Missouri are gerrymandering their state maps to eliminate Democratic districts by drawing themselves new seats toand maintain power in Congress. Democratic governors in states like California and Maryland are fighting back with their own redrawn maps. If the MAGA Supreme Court justices side with Louisiana Republicans, they’ll dilute the political power of Black and Hispanic voters and hand Republicans the chance to draw themselves 19 new House seats. If the Supreme Court won’t stand up for our rights, Congress must instead. Rep. John Larson and Sen. Alex Padilla have introduced the Redistricting Reform Act, which would ban mid-decade redistricting efforts and require states to establish independent redistricting commissions. Tell your member of Congress to end partisan, race-based gerrymandering and protect the right to vote for Black and Hispanic voters. Demand Congress protect voting rights and pass the Redistricting Reform Act.

Texas tried to erase voters of color—again.
A court said: unconstitutional.

But the fight isn’t over.

Abbott is pushing the case to SCOTUS, hoping Trump’s justices give him a win anyway.
This is about power—not fairness.

Tell Congress: Stop gerrymandering. Pass the Redistricting Reform Act.

$4.75M in unreported gifts.
Private real estate deals.
Yacht vacations.
Luxury flights.

That’s not a billionaire influencer.
That’s Justice Clarence Thomas under the influence of billionaires.

SCOTUS needs an enforceable code of ethics.

Chief Justice John Roberts broke the Voting Rights Act.
Legalized partisan gerrymandering.
Unleashed billionaires in our elections.
Shielded ICE’s racial profiling.
Backed Trump 90%+ of the time on the shadow docket.

And people still consider him a “moderate.”

Reminder: Trump has won nearly every case he’s brought to the Supreme Court.

If they finally say no on tariffs, it’s not bravery. It’s optics.

Don’t fall for the “moderate Roberts” myth.
He’s just as committed to MAGA’s agenda—he’s just more careful with the PR.

It’s not just about Trump.

Roberts built a court that expects presidents to break the law — and protects them when they do.

What happened to checks and balances?

What happens in L.A. won’t stay in L.A.
What happens in Chicago won’t stay in Chicago.
What happens in New York won’t stay in New York.
What happens in Charlotte won’t stay in Charlotte.

The Supreme Court OK’ed racial profiling for ICE.
ICE is attacking US citizens.

Authoritarianism is happening.

Even if Trump loses the tariffs case, it doesn’t erase the immunity ruling.
Or the abortion bans.
Or the voter roll purges.

The MAGA majority on the Court has already done its damage.

One “no” doesn’t balance the scales.

A Trump-appointed judge blocked Texas’ racial gerrymander.

Read that again. Even he said it went too far.

Now Trump’s MAGA-packed Supreme Court —led by John Roberts, who gutted the Voting Rights Act— gets to decide if it stands anyway.

This isn’t neutral. It’s engineered.

If this sounds wild to you, brace yourself: it’s not hypothetical.

The Roberts’ Court said a president could literally deploy SEAL Team 6 against a rival and be criminally immune.

This isn’t checks and balances.
It’s full‑blown executive impunity.

This is all John Roberts’ fault Trump owes his corrupt and abusive reign to one man.

John Roberts said he’d be an umpire “calling balls and strikes.”

But for two decades, he’s rigged the entire game.

Let’s stop pretending John Roberts is some moderate saving democracy.

He gutted voting rights. Greenlit gerrymandering. Shielded billionaires. And now he’s built a Court that rubber-stamps Trump’s every move.

This crisis didn’t appear overnight. It was designed.

Republicans in Texas tried to draw five new GOP seats by slicing up Black and Latino communities.

A federal court said: Nope. That’s illegal racial gerrymandering.

Now they’re running to SCOTUS for backup.

This is about power—not representation.

Trump says if his tariffs are struck down, it’ll be a disaster.

For who? For him?

What’s actually a disaster is letting any president bypass Congress and make up trade laws on the fly.

This isn’t leadership. It’s lawlessness.

Texas Republicans are telling on themselves.

They say the map was “only partisan,” not racial. But it only targeted Black and Latino districts.

That’s not a defense—it’s a confession.

And now they want SCOTUS to bless it.

Reminder: The Supreme Court ended Roe.
They blocked student debt relief.
They gave Trump immunity.

Now they’re eyeing obliterating the Voting Rights Act.

We must be LOUD. Silence is what they want.

SCOTUS could give Trump a blank check to shut the border to asylum seekers.
Even those legally arriving at ports of entry.

This isn’t about "security."
It’s about stripping rights from desperate people and expanding unchecked executive power.

We know what happens when the Supreme Court gets involved in voting rights:

Shelby.
Brnovich.
Allen.
And now: Louisiana v. Callais.

Every time, they chip away at our freedom to vote.
This time, they might just break it.

The Supreme Court is about to rule on whether Louisiana can gerrymander Black voters out of existence.
That’s not hyperbole — that’s what Louisiana v. Callais is.

This case could be the end of the Voting Rights Act as we know it.
Democracy is on the line.

Asylum law isn’t a technicality.
It’s a human right.

Noem v. Al Otro Lado could blow it up by redefining “arrival” to mean only after the U.S. says so.

The Supreme Court could rule that if you’re on the border, you’re not really here.
And not really protected.

The lower courts said ICE raids violated the Constitution.
The Supreme Court said: do it anyway.

Now in Chicago?
People arrested in parks. On job sites. At immigration hearings.

97.4% with no record but detained anyway.

SCOTUS is helping shred the Constitution piece by piece.

97.4% of immigrants detained in Chicago had no criminal record.
They weren’t the “worst of the worst.”
They were daycare workers, landscapers, cab drivers.

The Roberts Court says that’s fine.
They greenlit racial profiling, and called it law.

Let’s be clear: This case is part of the same project that already…

🔴 Separated families
🔴 Caged kids
🔴 Blocked asylum for domestic violence survivors
🔴 Forced people into dangerous camps in Mexico

Now SCOTUS may help rewrite the law to make all of it permanent.

This case is terrifying.
Can the U.S. block asylum-seekers on the Mexican side of the border, and act like they never came?

The Trump admin says yes.
The 9th Circuit said no: that would “radically contract” asylum rights.

Now it’s up to SCOTUS.
We’ve seen this 6–3 movie before.

🚨 Stacked by Trump.
🚨 Funded by billionaires.
🚨 Delivering wins for the powerful, losses for everyone else.

People see it. Legitimacy is gone.

Remember:
The Roberts Court isn’t misunderstood—it’s doing exactly what it was built to do.

We expect Trump to ignore the rules.
We expect him to abuse executive power.

But the Supreme Court is supposed to stop that.
Instead, they’re letting it happen—again and again.

That’s not checks and balances. That’s complicity.

They say they’re pro-family.
They say they’re pro-life.

Meanwhile, Trump’s lawyers fought in court to deny food to poor families—during a shutdown he created.

He lost. But never forget: they all stood behind him.
