What the -blam!- is wrong with them? Did they not see all of the bullshit people tried to pull in the last presidential election and now they decide to remove the protections? This is so -blam!-ing stupid.

That's an incredibly misleading title. They struck down a provision that required preclearance for specific states to change their voter requirements. The majority of the act remains intact, including the part that makes it illegal to make your laws discriminate against certain demographic groups. The only thing that changes is that the act will now be enforced the same way in all states, rather than differently in several southern states than in the rest of the country.
