Suffragettes Reborn: Back to the Drawing Board for the Voting Rights Act

Suffragettes Reborn: Back to the Drawing Board for the Voting Rights Act

Today - John discusses the Supreme Court ruling that Louisiana unconstitutionally created racially gerrymandered black-majority districts, throwing upcoming elections into limbo and the 1965 Voting Rights Act on life support. Meanwhile in Florida, Ron DeSantis’ redrawn congressional district map was breezily passed through the statehouse. And, in Virginia, the State Supreme Court ruled to continue blocking certifications of the recently passed voting districts there. John also talks about Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth testifying to Congress over the cost of his war in Iran, calling his democratic critics some of America’s biggest adversaries in the conflict. Then, actor and podcast star Bob Cesca returns to comment and joke about recent news and TV shows. Next, John interviews the founder and CEO of the National Democratic Training Committee - Kelly Dietrich and they discuss ways to make a difference and fight the GOP's corruption.

Then finally, legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson joins the crew to chat about the gutting of the Voting Rights Act and the newest bogus indictment of former FBI Director James Comey.
