i don't know what's more ridiculous: that this new conservative majority is so hostile to the electoral power of black people that even justice roberts is in the dissent, or that his dissent suggests that he, too, would end the voting rights act under different circumstances.  qt @mjs_dc breaking: by a 5–4 vote, with roberts joining the liberals in dissent, the supreme court halts a lower court order that required alabama to redraw its congressional map, which diluted black votes in violation of the voting rights act.
