Let's suppose Democrats against all odds hold on to both the House and Senate this November, with enough seats in the latter chamber to overcome the legislative filibuster, thereby clearing the way for the passage of the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement bill.  Given how the conservative-dominated Supreme Court has been chipping away at the original 1965 Voting Rights Act over the decades until it is effectively rendered null and void, how do we know the same fate doesn't also await its successor by this same court?

John Roberts’s Long Game



Because when and if the Crt strikes down Voting Rights Act or DC statehood this will give Ds a mandate to add Justices, they can't say it now there is no Mandate to Add Justices, but we don't need 4 we only need two and Child's and Kruger are on reserve to make it 6/5 not 7/6 and once again making John Roberts the swing vote

If they say it now, without a mandate voters will reject Crt packing
