The Virginia Supreme Court invalidated democrats' efforts to unconstitutionally redistrict their state. Just so you know, the court said this was an "unconstitutional violation".

"Tough luck, @SenLouiseLucas - merch just got Supreme Court’d straight to the clearance rack," GOP strategist Christian Martinez wrote on social media in response to a post from Lucas promoting "Ten F---ing One" shirts.
