Still fresh on my mind. Great. Fresh on everybody's mind. It is remarkable what the Supreme Court just did. I mean, no other way to describe it except Jim Crow 2.0. What Governor Landry declared an emergency and suspended an election that already had been conducted, at least for 42,000 people overseas in the military. Literally suspended the election so he can redistrict out African American representation. That happened in 2026 in the United States of America. What happened in Tennessee, what's going on in all of these other Southern states. (00:31–00:40)
