Summary
5.13.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: MAGA Voting Rights Power Grab. Stacey Abrams' Dire Warning. Justin Jones Stripped of All Committees.
Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has called for a special legislative session to redraw electoral maps following a Supreme Court ruling. This move aligns with several southern states controlled by Republicans that are attempting to undermine Black voting power. We'll discuss this issue with voting advocate Stacey Abrams and Gerald Griggs, the NAACP State President of Georgia.
Texas Congressman Marc Veasey, Co-Chair of the Congressional Voting Rights Caucus, will join us to explain why federal oversight of election changes is crucial in states with a history of voter discrimination.
Tennessee State Representative Justin Jones will be here to talk about how he was stripped of all his committee assignments for protesting the MAGA power grab in his state.
The Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries calls out Republicans over their failed policies that are worsening the affordability crisis.
In tonight's Crockett Chronicles, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett challenges the silence from Republicans who did not attend a recent hearing and will urge the public to pay attention to who is willing to fight for survivors and who is not.
