It cites a 6-3 U.S. Supreme Court decision stating the Voting Rights Act does not require or authorize race-based congressional mapmaking, and it asserts that states like Tennessee and Louisiana moved to remove majority-Black districts. The piece then claims Virginia\u2019s newly drawn map-approved by voters and associated with Democrats-was struck down by the state Supreme Court.  <\/p>\n<p>The article portrays Rep. alexandria Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s remarks as politically motivated and criticizes the use of Bible\/Civil rights Church connections (including references to Martin Luther King Jr.) to frame the issue. It concludes by strongly condemning the Democratic Party\u2019s stance, comparing it to historical segregation and arguing it should \u201cperish quickly enough.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>If, by the grace of God, the Democratic Party ever justly perishes, it will require only a nine-word epitaph:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere lies the Democratic Party.
