A Florida judge says voting rights groups have not sufficiently proven the new Florida gerrymander was drawn with partisan intent (which is forbidden by the Florida constitution) when the DeSantis' team has said that explicitly! www.nytimes.com/2026/05/26/u...

Seems like their master plan will just be getting the supreme court to say the Florida Constitution can’t forbid partisan gerrymanders, because somehow that’s protected in the constitution, because reasons.

Rules for thee, not for me. I'm constantly amazed at how much blind faith a lot of Americans put into the words of the Constitution without realizing that those words doesn't mean shit unless they're willing to defend them. It's almost like they never read a history book of how fascism happens.
