When the Supreme Court comes through to do something not fascist, you know the lower court opinion is going to be fucking insane. "Citizens can't sue for violations of the voting rights act."

And the three worst justices agreed. I think they're generally just surprised their fellow conservatives don't get that the movement is going full fascist and they don't need to maintain the veneer of law anymore.
