- The Supreme Court heard arguments Tuesday in Merrill v. Milligan, a case on a Voting Rights Act dispute involving Alabama's Republican-drawn congressional map. The map was drawn in 2021 for Alabama's seven seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. Currently, only one district is majority-Black, even though Alabama's population is 27% Black.

This whole thing is a history lesson in law.
If you want to know what this case is about , listen to sotomayor starting at 22:32. That’s what this whole thing is about. Listen to her question and then listen to the response.
But...but ..It run east to west...or North to south....Anyway...It Is "our interest" to break It apart.
Jim Jordan and Crenshaw would be out of jobs because no reasonable person on the planet would ever draw their districts
Alabama’s arguments rely largely on an interpretation of the 14th Amendment (the “14A”) which has never been adopted; it presumes an interpretation of the 14A that incorporates colorblindness, i.e., a requirement that people be treated symmetrically along racial lines; that idea is not new, it’s been rejected for decades, and it is beyond radical to attempt to rewrite the text and history of the 14A to fit that notion. Justice Jackson pointed this problem out flawlessly and it was SO refreshing to hear such a sound, detailed account of the historical record.
They are deciding on a landmark case that will determine voting rights that have been in place since 1965. I wish I had my own youtube channel to explore this. Everyone should know what's going on.
Longer bc 14th amendment was done in 1860s
Correct. The ruling on this case and North Carolina could change across the board elections period (for a long period). The Votings Right Act could (will?) be stripped away beneath our feet. Tragic for democracy. Should not happen.
Hey, At a picnic this past weekend as power was out sitting around talking about thing going on someone said something about the court and I would say 95 percent had no confidence in the Supreme Court and 100% were feeling that Justice Thomas was unprincipled and should be removed from the bench. This picnic was Republicans and Independents. Everyone was just tried of the whole Trump mess and just want it to go away.
Way too many ads. Ridiculous that CBS puts so many ads on something they had no involvement in.
I got 0 ads. you sure it wasn't youtube
It seems that all the justices are having a hard time understanding what this guys argument is , the argument is simple. He wants to redistrict to help republicans win.
Just like NY, Illinois,,Washington,California,Massachusetts, Oregon and Pennsylvania do for Democrats.
@@robertl7632 Show me any legislation proposed or lawsuit filed in those states by the Democratic Party that adversely affects a specific racial group.
@@Foenem521 don't have yo if you're in power.
@@Foenem521 1/3 rd of new mexico is white, but there is no majority white district all majority latino, this is discrimination
Of course. Just as in my radically-liberal state of New Jersey, the districts are drawn to make sure democrats win. What is so surprising about that? Except that in the eyes of the snowflakes, it's ok for democrats to do it, but not republicans.
sick of the ads every 10 minutes!
What they're arguing is law. Are we changing it or enforcing it? She's good and so is he.
The judge has the advantage of interruption. The process is intriguing, especially at this level.
I’ve used gis to create a myriad maps. Cartography is subjective. Read the book how to lie with maps. Also, how to lie with statistics.
Hard to believe this is even happening.
OUTLAW Gerrymandering! Nation wide.
Republicans wouldn’t like that one
What I hate more than explicit discrimination is implicit discrimination.
Voter 1: I won't for anybody black.
Voter 2: I'm going to vote for a black because I indentify with them...... Really. Vote for candidate with a plan, don't factor in other sht.
Let’s see what the activists right wing justices (so called justices) are up to. May be they will institute the new poll taxes for voting.
Those are YOUR justices. You're welcome.
These lady justices are completely disrespectful. They ask a question and when they don't hear what they want to hear they cut him off, wtf?!
It is not disrespectful to stop the Alabama attorney when he is not answering the question asked.
Attorneys who practice in the Supreme Court are regularly interrupted and, in fact, appellate argument allows Judges and Justices to do that any time they want; advocates are supposed to stop speaking when the bench speaks.
Scalia did the same thing, you sexist
What defines compactness, just a matter of physical distance? Cultural affinity? Socioeconomic level? Just tell me son cuz if inbreeding is the criteria then the whole state of Alabama is one whole district!
Supreme Court needs to cool it with antisemitic remarks.
Jackson needs to take some nyquil.
WHO THINKS THE SCOTUS WILL HOLD FOR ALABAMA?
Not the first time SCOTUS has done something that doesn't reflect public opinion.
Clarence Thomas treats the Supreme Court as a place to hang out. He never speaks, never gives his opinion when on the stand. He is an embarrassment to the Supreme Court.
He was literally the first justice to speak in this case?
@@km-ug4dq he is on the Supreme Court and he once had a stretch off going almost 10 years without asking a question on the bench. He treats it as a hang out.
@@Foenem521 Better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than open it and remove all doubt.
Mark Twain
@@rpalmatres5898Don’t just copy and paste a mark twain quote. Be specific and tell me what fault you find in my comment.
What’s the issue? All the information to make a legal decision is available in the briefs? He isn’t going to just ask and ask and ask for sound bites. He knows the cases, he knows his judicial view and on rare occasion he’ll ask a question or have Alito ask it for him
Thank you President Trump. At least you gave us the Supreme Court
Remember, if Moore vs. Harper is ruled on, states can simply ignore who you voted for and send different electors instead. That undermines our vote and our voice. This affects ALL of us.
@@truenews2980 that's what republicans want ..... they've been trying to undo the voting rights act for decades...... they took away the accountability of the VRA for a reason... they won't pass the john Lewis bill on PURPOSE!!
@@truenews2980 don’t care
@@augustopinochet42069 So it doesn't bother you that state legislatures can simply disregard who the voters choose and send their own electors for Presidential elections? That sounds about right for the Chilean dictator who would order his enemies to be drugged and then thrown into the Pacific Ocean from helicopters.
Who is “us”? Curious minds want to know
Doesn't know what a woman but wants to play justice
best justice on the bench
@@marquiesseonline worst.
Alabama better take the win
No state gets to destroy democracy I'd literally rather see Alabama get nuked than win.
They didn’t, get mad
Like we don't already know how this Trumptraitor court is going to rule.
I think they asking him why is he there 🤔 & never got it
This just shows that if blacks were pulled from ANY issue in the USA, things would be better.
It's shows that white people are trying to pretend racism doesn't exist while simultaneously trying to RE- implement racist gerrymandering... to deny history is to choose to be WILLFULLY IGNORANT
Point taken. So if the opportunity presents itself again, do your own work so as to avoid these messy little repercussions.
