Tonight, the Supreme Court does it again, handing Republicans another potential congressional

map in their favor as Democrats scramble to stop the damage.

Plus, the president declares the Iran ceasefire on life support and considers new military

action for the strait and new economic action for

Americans right here at home. And later, that Trump sticky note that was handed to acting Attorney

General Todd Blanche just before the DOJ issued subpoenas to hunt down leaks. Tonight on Laura Codes

Live.

Well, my opening statement tonight, the Supreme Court has started a redistricting wildfire that's quickly getting out of control.

And it's happening at a rate the Democrats can't yet contain.

It's not just Tennessee or Louisiana or Virginia or Florida or Texas. Today, the Supreme Court paved the way for Alabama to get rid of a majority black congressional district. It can mean that

Republicans pick up yet another

seat in November's midterms. Now, I want to go back and explain quickly what has happened here,

because it's very important to have the context. And mind you, none of it would have been possible

had not been for the Supreme Court's decision just two weeks ago that gutted yet another section of the

Voting Rights Act, this time not section five, but section two. So in 2023, Alabama drew

seven congressional districts, only one of which was a majority black one. Now a lower court

called them on it and said, you can't use that map. So Alabama then drew a

map that had two majority black districts. Those two districts elected Democrats in 2024. Now,

fast forward with the Supreme Court gutting section two, and Alabama ran to the Supreme Court on

Friday and asked, do we really need to have two majority black districts?

Or can we just have one?

Well, say the Supreme Court basically said, maybe, try it.
