That sounds you hear, that's a starter's pistol, that the United States Supreme Court

MAGA majority 6 to 3 just fired to start the race to the bottom to remap federal congressional

maps based on a new decision that we were expecting, but now we've got it in a case called Calais

coming out of Louisiana that is effectively is going to allow

states primarily red states to redo their maps for congressional districts in a way that dilutes

the power of black and brown and asian Hispanic Americans. Because now, according to Justice Alito,

who wrote the majority decision, we live in a post-racial world. We don't have racism anymore.

It's all gone since the 1960s when the Voting Rights Act was originally passed.

And the Voting Rights Act has been the bane of the existence of Chief Justice Roberts,

and his main goal, along with Clarence Thomas, has been to destroy the Voting Rights Act passed in 1965

in order to effectuate the 14th and 15th Amendment of the Constitution

and the Equal Protection Clause. And to make sure that first black Americans, later brown,

Hispanic, Native American were not going to be abused by the white majority in their state,

and they would have sufficient representation in Congress, but forget it now with the Calais decision.

What we're going to see, now that it's come out here at the end of April is a race between now and August to remap and

remap and remap we thought it was sort of over with Virginia and Florida but no there's going to

be attempts to try to squeeze out seven or ten or twelve or fifteen more red magazines before the midterms, because of course what they can't earn,

the Republicans will try to steal.

I'm Michael Popak.

I'll go through Alito's majority decision, joined by Chief Justice Roberts, Gorsuch,

Kavanaugh, Thomas, and Amy Coney-Barritt,

and the scathing rebuttal and rebuke in the dissent by Kagan, joined by Sotomayor and Katanji
