A National "Reset": How The Supreme Court Just Shook Up The Midterms

A National "Reset": How The Supreme Court Just Shook Up The Midterms

The Supreme Court has struck down Louisiana's redrawn congressional map in a decision that could have a massive impact on this year's midterm elections and the current nationwide redistricting fight. While a lower court previously mandated a second Black-majority district to satisfy Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, the High Court’s 6-3 majority ruled that the state went too far in prioritizing race, labeling it an "unconstitutional" racial gerrymander. Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill joins us to discuss why she believes the court has finally "harmonized" the law with the Constitution and how this ruling affects other states seeking to reshape their voting boundaries. Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted for a second time by the Trump administration. This time, he is accused of using seashells on a beach to communicate a threat toward the President. Criminal defense attorney Andrew Cherkasky joins to discuss the indictment related to the "86-47" post, the First Amendment questions the case raises, and the significant challenges prosecutors will face. Plus, he breaks down the case against Cole Allen—the man charged with the attempted assassination of President Trump last weekend—and why an insanity defense is unlikely to succeed. PLUS, commentary by Karol Markowicz, columnist for the New York Post and FOX News. PHOTO CREDIT: ASSOCIATED PRESS Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
