A three-judge panel has denied a request by Alabama for a stay, saying it lacks jurisdiction in the case which has been appealed to SCOTUS.

Some of y’all sound like the same people who talk about how great Selma was under racist former mayor Joe T. Smitherman because you appreciated the few crumbs Black folks were allowed to have while others were sitting comfortably at the full table. (8/9)
