Yeah and they already ruled on this issue before some other dumb judge tried to block the map. Ruling they already made reconfirmed.

The SCOTUS is in Trump's Pocket.

It's all over for American "Democracy".

Unelected Partisan Stooges make America open for Whatever The Richest People want.

"which intentionally discriminates against Black people"

No, it doesn't. If you look at these districts being replaced on a map, it looks like a 2-snake boogie going on. They were purposefully engineered to give a solid block vote to people of a certain color. It's way past time for preferential treatment of certain groups of people when others are paying the same (or more) of the tax burden. Colleges, grants, civil service, etc... it's time for it to stop and this SCOTUS is hacking away at it.
