The Leftist Hypocrisy With the Voting Rights Act

Why did we have to have a VRA in the first place? Yeah, just like with the creation of the KKK, it was the Democrat party that provided probable cause.

The unrighteous indignation of the Marxist left never ceases to amaze me. They rant about how they are against hate and racism, yet they embrace an organization, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), that funnels money to a racist hate organization, the Ku Klux Klan, in order to combat racial hatred. Ain’t that a daisy? And oh by the way, the exact same organization that they condemn for racial hatred, the KKK, is the organization founded by the Democrat party, oops. It is just the same as how the left cries about fascism, yet they support an organization, Antifa, that supports fascism.

So, when the U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) handed down its 6-3 decision in the case of Louisiana v. Callais, well, once again, we got to hear all the unrighteous indignation from the left. The SCOTUS affirmed that you cannot use the Voting Rights Act (VRA), especially section 2, as justification to draw specified congressional districts based upon race. In other words, gerrymandering of representative districts based solely on race is not constitutional. The intent of section 2 of the VRA was to ensure that when intentional racial discrimination was present, this section of the law was applicable. If there is no proof of intentional racial bias and discrimination, section 2 of the VRA is not applicable. In essence, it is a pure example of reverse racial discrimination to create “majority-minority” congressional districts, or any representative district.

Now, of course, this has the leftists in an utter tizzy. And how interesting this is, especially coming after the recent power grab in Virginia to basically eliminate any political opposition representation in the Commonwealth of Virginia. However, we now see that in their rush to disenfranchise the representation of their political opposition, the leftists in Virginia violated their own State Constitution, like that ever mattered to the Marxist left? So, one minute Barack Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, or whatever his name is this month, chimed in celebrating the 51% to 48% vote on the unconstitutional voter disenfranchisement in Virginia, to now cry like a baby about the SCOTUS decision.

But, upon further review, and here is the real hypocrisy, why did we have to have a VRA in the first place? Yeah, just like with the creation of the KKK, it was the Democrat party that provided probable cause.

Let’s not forget who the political party of Black voter disenfranchisement has been all along, certainly not the Republican Party. It was the Democrat party that did not support the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments, ya know, those constitutional amendments that ended slavery, gave citizenship to the recently freed slaves, and their children, and lastly, gave those freed Blacks the right to vote. Ahh, this is what the KKK, born of the Democrat party, had as its mission: to intimidate, coerce, threaten, and leverage violence against Blacks to prevent them from voting. How funny, the same Democrat party today prefers to have illegal immigrants voting.

The efforts of the Democrat party to disenfranchise Black voters did not just stop at the creation of the KKK. It also took the form of Jim Crow laws. Sorry, Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer, you guys own Jim Crow 1.0, and all subsequent iterations of such. Along with Jim Crow, there were poll taxes and literacy tests, yes, racial discrimination in the voting process, created and implemented by the party of the donkey. So, in essence, the VRA was created as a response to the actions of the Democratic Party. Just like the Civil Rights Act of 1964 did not pass based on the support of Senate Democrats, who filibustered the legislation. No, it was the Senate Republicans, led by Everett Dirksen, who enabled the passing of the legislation and eventual signing by President Johnson.

The problem here is that there is a true lack of historical knowledge and courage among present Republican party leadership to simply articulate these facts. Instead, they have allowed the Marxist left to dictate the narrative and completely rewrite history. We should all be very pleased that the SCOTUS did the right thing so that we can correct this misguided pursuit by the left to institute what they actually created, racial discrimination in our representative democracy. The absurdity of leftists to claim that only Blacks can represent Blacks is the height of racial discrimination and is actually condescending. As a Member of Congress, I represented a district that was 92% white, heavily Jewish, and had the highest per capita income zip code in America at that time, Palm Beach Island. And I think we all know that there is a house on Palm Beach Island called Mar-a-Lago. Yeah, funny…a kid born in 1961 in a Black-only hospital was the congressional representative for a future president!

Not to mention that a fella by the name of Rush Limbaugh was one of my constituents.

I am truly glad that the SCOTUS struck down the bias of the left with their decision in Louisiana v. Callais. Perhaps these communities will now have principled representation based upon the rule of law and impeccable character, and not representation based upon the color of skin. Sure, I expect the imbecilic leftist rantings denigrating me as an Uncle Tom, Oreo, sellout, white man’s porch monkey, or Black face of white supremacy. Those insidious monikers have no impact upon me or my understanding of our Constitution and our history. Perhaps, if we had more discussions about the history of this Constitutional Republic and the study of civics, we would lucidly comprehend the meaning of this landmark decision.

Or we can just stupidly continue down the road laid by one Barry Soetoro when he asserted back in 2008, “we are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” To that, I say, nah, we ain’t gonna allow that to happen.

Therein lies the task and purpose of the American Constitutional Rights Union: to uphold and honor our Constitution and to educate citizens on its importance, so as not to allow a fundamental transformation.

Steadfast and Loyal.
