Trump Allies PANIC over MIDTERMS...SHADY TRICKS EXPOSED!! - Meidas Touch
When the John Roberts Supreme Court cleared the way for racist gerrrymandering after the Callais vs. Louisiana decision, it essentially gutted the Voting Rights Act. Now, every southern state is racing to draw new maps that disenfranchise Black voters.
