The Black population is so big in Louisiana that they needed to create a new district to represent the Black population in Congress, but the Republican Party cut that district and split the population up in all-white districts so they could never elect a Democratic representative

How the fuck does this make logical sense to you? Do you not see them diluting Black people’s votes by combining Black districts with majority-white districts, making it so Black people can never elect someone who looks like them?

The highlighted language makes a significant distinction between Black Americans as a people with historical ties to the United States and the broader legal question of birthright citizenship. 1. What Justice Thomas actually says The key passage reads: “Blacks were entitled to citizenship because they were Americans. They had no other homeland, owed no allegiance to any foreign power, and were subject to no other authority.” Thomas then quotes Frederick Douglass concerning Black Americans who fought in the same battles, shared the same victories, and defended the United States. His argument is that Reconstruction-era citizenship protections recognized Black Americans as members of the American political community, not as foreigners. 2. The connection to Reconstruction The opinion specifically references: Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857): The Supreme Court denied federal citizenship to people of African descent within the categories addressed by its ruling. Civil Rights Act of 1866: Congress established a federal citizenship rule for people born in the United States and not subject to a foreign power, with a specific exclusion concerning Indians not taxed. Fourteenth Amendment (1868): The Citizenship Clause constitutionalized birthright citizenship for persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to its jurisdiction. The distinction is important because Thomas is presenting a historical and legal interpretation of the Citizenship Clause, rather than establishing a new racial classification. 3. What the Supreme Court actually decided I verified the screenshot against the Supreme Court's official records. The passage is authentic. However, Thomas's opinion was a dissent, not the Court's controlling decision. The majority affirmed the lower court's judgment, rejecting the administration's position in this birthright-citizenship case. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson also challenged Thomas's historical interpretation, arguing that the Reconstruction Amendments established broader protections against unequal citizenship.
