“Eff around and find out”: That taunt from Hakeem Jeffries celebrating Virginia’s gerrymander did not age well.
On Friday, the House minority leader found out that Virginia’s Supreme Court was not quite as gleeful as he about Democrats’ attempt to virtually eliminate Republican representation in the purple state.
The court just cooked the party’s infamous lobster, a district over 100 miles long that was designed to help devour the GOP’s slender majority in the House of Representatives.
It also cooked the ambitions of Gov. Abigail Spanberger and the Democratic establishment, which tossed aside any pretense of principle in a raw political gambit.
The resulting faceplant is nothing short of legendary: Spanberger’s Democrats have succeeded in alienating half of the state.
For the governor, the court’s decision was particularly embarrassing.
Before assuming power, Spanberger denounced gerrymandering as “detrimental to our democracy and weakens the individual voices that form our electorates.”
She ran as a moderate, but Spanberger immediately turned sharply left once in office and called for the most extreme gerrymander in the nation.
The court found that effort was not only unconstitutional

James Carville recently told Democratic politicians that they have no choice but to pack the court, declaring “F–k it . . . Just do it.”
He suggested, however, that they might not want to tell the voters.
“Don’t run on it. Don’t talk about it,” he said. “Just do it.”
Last week, Jeffries declared the Supreme Court “illegitimate” as he blasted its ban on racial gerrymandering.
After the Virginia court’s ruling, the frustrated Democratic establishment is ever more likely to echo him — and to go beyond.
Many Democrats are now “all in” with this radical agenda.
With the courts declaring their redistricting efforts unconstitutional, it is the constitutional system itself that will now have to go.

Can they become more unhinged?
They shoot, burn and steal everything now. They are the left. How do you top that?
The Pubbies should take his advice.
Sounding like Linda advocating a national abortion ban.
You can feel the pressure building. Keep your powder dry....
They aren’t giving up yet
They didn’t follow the rules.
I think they misspelled delusional.
I didn’t need to be Nostradamus to predict what happened. The trial court’s decision laid out the multiple violations of the state constitution’s requirements for putting referenda on the ballot. Also, the binding precedent in VA is opposite that of here in CA. The VA Supreme Court waits until after the election to rule on challenges. It doesn’t make sense to me, but it is the law
Showing once again the utter lack of integrity of the Dems and the media: none of the rat leaders even mentions these two issues, and the media hasn’t asked a single one of them that I’ve seen
