It was Fox News that reported how “Democrats exploded in fury” after the Virginia Supreme Court struck down their redistricting scheme.
One leftist activist immediately concluded violent revolution now is “inevitable.”
The court struck down the plan because lawmakers failed to follow the state’s constitutional requirement for an intervening election between two votes on a constitutional amendment.
The 4-3 decision killed a Democrat plan to take 10 of the 11 districts in the state, leaving only one to be majority Republican.
The divide right now is 6-5 for Democrats, and their agenda would have given the 51% who voted Democrat 91% of the congressional representation, leaving only 9% for the 49% of the voters who rejected the plan.
It was Hasan Piker, a leftist streamer, who accused the court of denying the results of the state’s vote.
‘Scotus gutted the voting rights act and tennessee carved up the last dem district destroying black voter power in the state,” Piker claimed. “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable.”
Much of the dismay came from “news” reporters from various outlets.

This MSNOW panel sounds downright DEPRESSED after the Virginia Supreme Court struck down the Democrat redistricting map.
The so-callled “special session” is actually INVALID under the state constitution.
Their sneaky power grab is officially DOA, as many predicted it would be. pic.twitter.com/BnFzgAuRBj

Other criticism came from Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., who suggested Democrats won their redrawn map fair and square by holding a statewide election.
“Unlike Republican-led states that have redrawn their maps through backroom deals, the Virginia General Assembly let the people decide for themselves in a free and fair election. If the Virginia Supreme Court had legitimate concerns about this referendum, the time to stop it would have been before three million Virginians cast their ballots,” he claimed.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., said “all options” are being reviewed.
“The decision to overturn an entire election is an unprecedented and undemocratic action that cannot stand,” Jeffries said in a statement.
