There was racially polarized 29 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:19,120 voting even within the Democratic Party. That's where Section two matters, 30 00:01:19,359 --> 00:01:21,599 where you have a reason to think that a racial 31 00:01:21,599 --> 00:01:22,400 group is being. 32 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,359 Speaker 7: Treated here too, you have proof of that here. 33 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 6: No, you know, what you have here is that Republicans 34 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,560 and Democrats are different. 35 00:01:27,599 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 7: There's no you have some that even white Republicans or 36 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,760 white Democrats won't vote for black candidates. 37 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 6: Right, But if these were white Democrats, there's no reason 38 00:01:39,519 --> 00:01:40,200 to think they would have. 39 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:41,079 Speaker 3: A second district. 40 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:42,159 Speaker 8: None. 41 00:01:42,799 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 6: And so what is happening here is their argument is 42 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,159 because these Democrats happen to be black, they get a 43 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,640 second district. If they were all white, we all agree 44 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,000 they wouldn't get a second district. That is literally the 45 00:01:53,040 --> 00:02:00,640 definition of race subordinating traditional principles. 46 00:01:58,439 --> 00:02:01,079 Speaker 3: Ladies and gentlemen. That is It's an excerpt from the 47 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:05,599 hearing today at the Supreme Court of the United States 48 00:02:05,599 --> 00:02:11,280 on Louisiana Challenge Louisiana's challenge to the Voting Rights Act, 49 00:02:11,479 --> 00:02:16,639 and it appears that Democrats gonna be unhappy the US 50 00:02:16,719 --> 00:02:20,360 Supreme Court. Conservatives appear willing to blunt key Voting Rights 51 00:02:20,479 --> 00:02:28,120 Act provision that is a Reuter's headline from the AP well, 52 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:32,400 that's a different story, excuse me. From the Washington Post. 53 00:02:33,039 --> 00:02:36,800 Supreme Court seems open to limiting key section of Voting 54 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,919 Rights Act, and there are more. So that's one of 55 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,039 the things that we will discuss today, this challenge to 56 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:50,080 the voting's Voting Rights Act, and it is based on race. 57 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:55,360 Race seems to dominate so many of the stories in 58 00:02:55,439 --> 00:02:59,599 our lives. The New York Times did who are the 59 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:04,719 Louis voters behind the major a major Supreme Court challenge? 60 00:03:04,759 --> 00:03:09,960 They want who are these people that this they're not mentioned, 61 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,280 They're just they're not mentioned by name in the New 62 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,360 York Times wants to make sure that some of their 63 00:03:16,479 --> 00:03:22,159 names are known. Also from the Times, Supreme Court appears 64 00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:24,560 poised on Wednesday to up in the key provision of 65 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:29,520 the landmark civil rights law by prohibiting lawmakers from using 66 00:03:30,159 --> 00:03:38,280 race as a factor in drawing voting maps, which could 67 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:46,680 could you're looking at me puzzled, Carlos. I'm still being unclear, 68 00:03:46,759 --> 00:03:49,080 and and I'm glad you are, because a lot of 69 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:55,719 people don't follow this stuff in detail, because it's just 70 00:03:55,759 --> 00:03:58,639 not you know, this is what what political junkies follow. 71 00:03:58,759 --> 00:04:02,159 So is it clear to you what's going on here? 72 00:04:02,319 --> 00:04:06,280 All right? I'm so happy that you do look puzzled 73 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,800 and you listen, and when things puzzle you, I can tell. 74 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:15,159 So let me try to explain all this in ways 75 00:04:15,199 --> 00:04:20,040 that could make sense. Back in the old days in America, 76 00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:24,240 when the Democrats ruled the South, the Democrat Party, the 77 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:29,839 party of slavery, ruled with an iron fist in the South. 78 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:36,519 They were a bunch of racist sobs. They used to 79 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,040 do all kinds of things to keep black people from voting. 80 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,199 They used to put these what they called a poll tax. So, 81 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,600 in other words, poor black families would then go to 82 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,399 the poles to try to vote black men and women, 83 00:04:51,879 --> 00:04:53,800 and they were told, no, you have to pay a 84 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:58,600 tax in order to vote. They used to put all 85 00:04:58,759 --> 00:05:03,360 kinds of roadblocks in way. These Democrats, the Democrat Party, 86 00:05:03,439 --> 00:05:06,439 the Southern Democrat Party, and there were many of them. 87 00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:10,759 They used to own the South, like all these Southern 88 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:16,160 states like Mississippi, Louisiana where this case is from, Alabama. 89 00:05:16,639 --> 00:05:20,399 Alabama's where Democrat George Wallace once stood in the schoolhouse 90 00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:24,439 doah to try to keep young black cheering from going 91 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:30,480 to school. And he said at the time, segregation, naw segregation, 92 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:36,079 VAVA and black Democrats. They were in Florida. They ruled Florida, 93 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:42,040 they ruled North Carolina, South Carolina, Mississippi, Louisiana, Jojia. Less 94 00:05:42,079 --> 00:05:46,160 domatics down there in Jojia. So back in the day 95 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,399 when Democrats, and by the way, this was while they 96 00:05:50,399 --> 00:05:53,920 were still marching around talking about what lovely people they were, 97 00:05:54,399 --> 00:05:58,959 Kennedy and all that, and the Kennedys, and it was 98 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:04,639 a republic It was a Republican by the name of 99 00:06:04,759 --> 00:06:08,680 Dwight D. Eisenhower, who used to be the big figure 100 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,800 in World War two help us win that war. He 101 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,959 became president after Harry Truman. He became president Ian old 102 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:22,040 tricky Dick Nixon was his vice president. And Democrats wouldn't 103 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,879 let black children go to school with white kids. So 104 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:32,759 Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower pulled a Trump move before Trump, 105 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:38,240 he sent the National Guard over the objections of Arkansas 106 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:42,519 Democrat governor. He sent the National Guard in there to 107 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:47,160 protect black children trying to go to school. But while 108 00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:51,160 all this was late nineteen fifties, while all this was 109 00:06:51,199 --> 00:06:53,279 going on, the Democrats still didn't want black people to 110 00:06:53,360 --> 00:07:00,240 vote them, so then President John Kennedy from Massachusett. He 111 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,160 was one of them upstart Democrats from the North. And 112 00:07:04,199 --> 00:07:07,360 them Southern Democrats don't like the Northern Democrats. They're Yankees. 113 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,800 They didn't like the old Kennedy. But Kennedy went down 114 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:17,680 in the South in Texas and that's when he was killed, 115 00:07:18,199 --> 00:07:24,199 mudded assassinated after that. Nation was nineteen sixty three, was 116 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:31,120 that year, so Kennedy was assassinated, the nation was grieving. 117 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:37,920 Lyndon Baines Johnson, his vice president, was from Texas. But 118 00:07:38,439 --> 00:07:43,959 he Lyndon Baines Johnson said, I'm gonna I'm gonna take 119 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:48,120 up the Kennedy mantle. We're gonna pass some civil rights legislation. 120 00:07:48,399 --> 00:07:52,759 Dak gummet. We're gonna do it despite these Southern Democrats 121 00:07:52,879 --> 00:07:56,160 who hate black people, and that's what they live for, 122 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:01,879 to hate black peoples. So good old boy Lyndon Johnson 123 00:08:01,959 --> 00:08:04,480 turned on his fellow Southerner, and they thought he was 124 00:08:04,519 --> 00:08:06,959 turning on They were mad at olbj They were mad 125 00:08:07,079 --> 00:08:10,560 you following me so far? Okay, So they were mad 126 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,759 at Lyndon Johnson. Lyndon Johnson said, what deg gummit, We're 127 00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:18,079 gonna pass some civil rights legislation, and we gonna help 128 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:24,120 black people finally be free from those damn racist Democrats, 129 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,120 which I'm a I'm that's my party, but we're gonna 130 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,279 we're gonna stop this nonsense. They hated LBJ two for that. 131 00:08:32,639 --> 00:08:37,240 So what happened. They came up with two big pieces 132 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,080 of civil rights legislation. One of them is called the 133 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:45,720 Voting Rights Act of nineteen sixty four. And in the 134 00:08:45,799 --> 00:08:49,799 Voting Rights Act, they said, y'all Democrats have to stop 135 00:08:49,919 --> 00:08:56,600 this stuff. Y'all can't. Y'all can't keep denying black people 136 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,960 the right to vote. And it was a whole bit 137 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,240 you can go readers that complicated bigger, but here's what 138 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,559 it did. It said, from now on, the federal government 139 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,759 got to look at the way y'all do your election 140 00:09:09,919 --> 00:09:14,240 laws in you southern Democrat states that treat black people 141 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:19,879 so wickedly. And they also established that black people down 142 00:09:19,919 --> 00:09:25,159 there could actually, you know, have districts where with majority 143 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,039 black districts, and they could use race to determine those 144 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:33,799 districts so that white people Democrats couldn't stop keeping black 145 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,919 people from being elected to office. And that was in 146 00:09:38,039 --> 00:09:44,000 nineteen sixty four. Now this is where it gets complicated. 147 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,320 Some of the stuff in there, like this whole idea 148 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,679 that the federal government could look at the elections. They 149 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,320 didn't put a date when this would in. They just said, okay, 150 00:09:53,799 --> 00:09:56,879 this is what the law is. Now in sixty four, 151 00:09:56,919 --> 00:10:00,559 we're gonna change the way that these Southern Democrats who 152 00:10:00,639 --> 00:10:04,240 hate black people and Democrats been the party of slavery 153 00:10:04,279 --> 00:10:08,120 ever since almost to begin in America. We're gonna stop this. 154 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:14,039 So they stopped it. Now here's the problem, here's wild 155 00:10:14,039 --> 00:10:19,879 this is important. Now it's been since nineteen sixty four. 156 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,200 That's a lot of years. It's a lot of decades. 157 00:10:23,519 --> 00:10:27,559 Things done changed them. Southern Democrats ain't in power no more. 158 00:10:28,039 --> 00:10:30,440 They do their racism now in the big cities. They 159 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,039 don't do it all down. They don't control this whole South. 160 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,600 Normal Republicans nine in charge. Republicans were still held by 161 00:10:36,639 --> 00:10:40,480 these rules while you got to come to the federal government, 162 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,720 you got to do it. And meanwhile, all these using 163 00:10:43,919 --> 00:10:48,000 race has enabled a lot of seakhs to be just 164 00:10:48,279 --> 00:10:53,240 based on race, and so you got to the whole 165 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,840 almost a lot of those congressional black Caucasian seeks. That's 166 00:10:57,879 --> 00:11:01,320 the CBC well, they call themselves the Congressional Black cau 167 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,720 because we call them the Congressional Black Caucasian, the same 168 00:11:03,759 --> 00:11:08,399 difference anyway, So their seats were a lot of them 169 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:13,200 determined by these racial parameters that were set up. Now 170 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,120 people in Louisiana and other states are not fed up. 171 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,320 They're like, okay, look, come on, now, these states ain't 172 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,720 the same. We don't chase these Democrats scoundrels out of office. 173 00:11:23,799 --> 00:11:28,000 They're not down here no more suppressing and oppressing black people. 174 00:11:28,799 --> 00:11:31,600 And it's not fair that we have to just carve 175 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:38,200 out seats, congressional seats around the idea of race. The 176 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:43,039 government is supposed to be color blind. Everybody's supposed to 177 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,559 have equal justice under the law and equal rights under 178 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,120 the law. We don't need this anymore. We don't chase 179 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:54,559 them racist democrats out of the South. And in a nutshell, 180 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,080 that's what they're arguing about today the Supreme Court. It's 181 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,360 time to get rid of all this racial stuff, this 182 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,080 holdover from when Democrats was in charge and Democrats was 183 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,919 abusing and being wicked to people. It's time to let 184 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,919 it go. And that's what the argument is at the 185 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:18,240 Supreme Court. We don't need those regulations anymore, them rules 186 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,879 nineteen sixty four Voting Rights Act. We didn't fix the problem. 187 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:26,279 The evil Democrats and wicked Democrats been chased out of 188 00:12:26,279 --> 00:12:30,759 office for goodness sake. And so that's what they're arguing 189 00:12:30,799 --> 00:12:34,960 about today's Supreme Court. Does that make sense now? Sure? 190 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 9: But yeah, yeah, but what. 191 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 3: Nothing? Nothing? Come on now? If I didn't get if 192 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,120 there's some lack of understanding here, I need to know. 193 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:46,759 Speaker 6: No. 194 00:12:46,799 --> 00:12:49,399 Speaker 4: But I mean you said that in the beginning, in 195 00:12:49,519 --> 00:12:53,799 order for representation, for specific areas to be more to 196 00:12:54,080 --> 00:13:01,399 represents right, And why, I mean, why stop it? 197 00:13:01,399 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 3: Because like why not like expand it? Why stop it 198 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,120 because it's against them? Because we're not We're supposed this, 199 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,919 brit This is a great question. Why stop it? Because 200 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:16,559 America is not the same anymore. We are not inherently 201 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:22,440 a nation ruled by wicked Democrats' racial preferences anymore. Ain't 202 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,000 nobody's trying to stop black people from voting no more. 203 00:13:26,279 --> 00:13:30,080 Ain't no segregation no more. Them democrats being run out office. 204 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,639 So all these remedies. The government is supposed to treat 205 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,000 everybody the same. They're not supposed to look at you 206 00:13:36,039 --> 00:13:38,240 and say because you black, we're gonna treat you different. 207 00:13:38,399 --> 00:13:41,759 Because you white, We're gonna treat you different. And so 208 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,759 now we're evolving into a nation that lives up to 209 00:13:46,039 --> 00:13:50,279 our promise that we will treat every single human being 210 00:13:51,919 --> 00:13:55,039 with the respect and dignity that they get from just 211 00:13:55,159 --> 00:13:58,559 being an American system. We're not gonna keep looking and say, oh, 212 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,559 what color you we got to treat you different? What thing? 213 00:14:02,039 --> 00:14:05,120 That's not the way it's supposed to be in America. America, 214 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,159 We're all supposed to have equal justice under the law, 215 00:14:08,919 --> 00:14:12,840 no preferences. Does that make sense? It does? It does. 216 00:14:12,919 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 4: But I feel like in the it's gonna come up 217 00:14:16,039 --> 00:14:18,840 again that oh yeah, this person does to represent all 218 00:14:18,879 --> 00:14:20,600 of us, and then you know, like back to the 219 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,519 vicious cycle coming up. 220 00:14:22,759 --> 00:14:25,039 Speaker 3: What person ever has represented all of us? That's the 221 00:14:25,039 --> 00:14:30,919 whole point. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. That's life. 222 00:14:31,759 --> 00:14:33,679 I started to go all southern when you say that's 223 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,639 live boy. But I ain't gonna call you no boy 224 00:14:35,679 --> 00:14:37,840 because we ain't getting to that. I ain't no young Republican, 225 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:44,519 which is a whole nother story, cold another kettle of fish. Anyway, 226 00:14:44,559 --> 00:14:50,000 we have to take a break. I hope it makes 227 00:14:50,039 --> 00:14:55,559 better sense what the argument is, because it does. 228 00:14:55,639 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 4: I don't think I don't get why it's such a 229 00:14:57,399 --> 00:14:58,000 huge deal. 230 00:14:58,559 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 3: Like I'll tell you why it's a big deal when 231 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,039 we get back. It's a big big big big big 232 00:15:04,039 --> 00:15:07,240 big big big big big big big deal, big big big, 233 00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:12,279 especially in twenty twenty five out explain that James gold 234 00:15:12,399 --> 00:15:15,759 is a beautiful day. We're coming back. Whatever you do, 235 00:15:15,759 --> 00:15:17,799 do not go away. 236 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 5: The Rush Hour with James Golden on the Red Apple 237 00:15:22,519 --> 00:15:36,799 Podcast Network. The Rush Hour with James Golden Entertaining and informative. 238 00:15:36,279 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 8: On the Red Apple Podcast Network. 239 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,799 Speaker 3: You know, Carlos Folks just says something profound to me. 240 00:15:42,879 --> 00:15:44,440 But we decided we're going to wait till after the 241 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,159 break because it's a little bit more involved on what 242 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,960 he thinks the priorities are for this nation. And I 243 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,679 think it's really important that we address that. I just 244 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,519 want to kind of close the loop on it. Princess 245 00:15:53,559 --> 00:15:57,519 Diana answered your question, Carlos, why stop it? She said, 246 00:15:57,519 --> 00:16:01,799 because it's become totally corrupted like everything else Democrats controlled. 247 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,559 And then this is the point. It has become a 248 00:16:05,559 --> 00:16:10,039 way for Democrats to run the inner city and their 249 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:15,240 racially gerry mander districts as their plantations. And here's what 250 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:21,320 she means by that. Because this Voting Right Act set 251 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:29,360 up district by race, it forbid states from changing those 252 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:36,080 lines if they if that racial component was going to 253 00:16:36,159 --> 00:16:40,200 be diluted. That's what you hear of Democrats say, Oh, 254 00:16:40,279 --> 00:16:44,440 you're trying to dilute black votes, black voting strengths. When 255 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,360 you change the district, you set it up by race, 256 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:51,559 and that means it's set up forever. That's not the 257 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:57,039 way elections work. Districts change all the time every based 258 00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:01,080 on population the population, but those because it would set 259 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,920 up by race, nobody could because if did you dare 260 00:17:05,039 --> 00:17:08,359 redraw the voting map and it changes the composition of 261 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,720 those Oh no, no, now you're destroying black You're violating 262 00:17:12,759 --> 00:17:18,519 the Voting Rights Act. It is not an our voting 263 00:17:18,599 --> 00:17:24,000 in America. Nothing should be based laws may that affect 264 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:31,279 everybody on race of one one particular race. That's not America. 265 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,920 That's not the way this country. That's not even what 266 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:40,119 the Civil rights movement was for. The dream of the 267 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:44,160 Civil rights movement was that black people would be able 268 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:54,079 to be treated equally equally in America, not that any 269 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:59,839 one racial group would have an advantage equal treatment of 270 00:18:00,039 --> 00:18:04,799 under the law, and it has been corrupted. And that's 271 00:18:04,799 --> 00:18:09,039 what's being challenged at the Supreme Court today. The impact 272 00:18:09,599 --> 00:18:12,319 on democrats is going to be stunning. More than that, 273 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:13,079 when we get. 274 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 5: Back the Rush Hour with James Golden on the Red 275 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:30,279 Apple Podcast Network. The Rush Hour with James Golden entertaining 276 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,200 and informative. 277 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 8: On the Red Apple Podcast Network. 278 00:18:36,319 --> 00:18:39,519 Speaker 3: James Golden is servely here fastest hour in American media. 279 00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:43,920 All right, we have to do some things. First of all, 280 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,400 Justice Thomas spoke up today. Now let me just explain 281 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,279 one more thing and I'll get to Carlos. Why is 282 00:18:50,319 --> 00:18:52,160 it so important? I'm gonna get to it in a minute, 283 00:18:52,799 --> 00:18:58,079 But let's hear Clarence Thomas making a point today in 284 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,200 today's session. By the way, Katan's Brown Jackson or she's 285 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,759 being raked over the colds like she always does for 286 00:19:04,839 --> 00:19:09,440 her questions and the court today cut for Justice Clarence 287 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,279 Thomas talking to a little Louisiana solicitor in this case, 288 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:17,440 what role did Robinson play in the development of SBA 289 00:19:17,599 --> 00:19:21,119 previous previous decisions, Justice Thomas, Robinson is the only reason 290 00:19:21,279 --> 00:19:22,319 sbight exists. 291 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 7: We fought tooth and nail in the Robinson litigation itself, 292 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,240 in telling the courts that we did not think the 293 00:19:29,279 --> 00:19:33,119 Constitution permitted us to draw a second majority black district. 294 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,000 As you know, under protests, we drew SB eight because 295 00:19:36,039 --> 00:19:38,240 the threat was that the federal courts were going to 296 00:19:38,319 --> 00:19:41,039 do it if we didn't. And that's I mean, I 297 00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:44,119 think that's the best way to conceive of why sbight exists. 298 00:19:44,279 --> 00:19:47,640 We would never pass sbight in the first instance without Robinson, 299 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:48,680 Justice Thomas. 300 00:19:48,559 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 3: Where were the findings in Robinson? 301 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 7: The finding by the middle district in Robinson was that 302 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,599 plaintiffs in this case were likely to show a violation 303 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,039 of Section two and likely violation. And I'm using very 304 00:20:02,079 --> 00:20:04,480 broad terminology because I do not know what the underlying 305 00:20:04,559 --> 00:20:07,000 violation is. I can't articulate that for you, Justice Thomas, 306 00:20:07,039 --> 00:20:09,160 because I don't think anybody can. But I think the 307 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,920 finding in the district court's mind in that case was 308 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,079 that the likelihood of a Section two violation meant that 309 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,079 a majority black district was required a second one. And 310 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,440 I think like that was the bottom line. And when 311 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,559 our legislature saw that, we understood the marching order. And 312 00:20:24,599 --> 00:20:26,680 that's why you see SPA as it exists today. 313 00:20:27,319 --> 00:20:31,519 Speaker 3: Just briefly, what were the findings that led to that conclusion? 314 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 7: Well, your honor, running through the preconditions and the totality 315 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,400 of the circumstances. I mean, I think the totality of 316 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,720 the circumstances did most of the work for the Middle 317 00:20:39,759 --> 00:20:44,519 District in Robinson Senate Factor one the Official History of 318 00:20:44,559 --> 00:20:48,160 past discrimination, Justice Thomas. We can never outrun the bad 319 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,839 era of poll taxes, of grandfather clauses, of literacy tests. 320 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:53,880 I think we're always going to lose across the board 321 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,279 on that kind of analysis. And that's what the Middle 322 00:20:56,279 --> 00:20:59,200 District in Robinson focused on, is how bad was Louisiana 323 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,960 in the nineteen thirties, forties, fifties, sixties. And you know, 324 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,720 add all that together and at the end you have 325 00:21:04,839 --> 00:21:07,359 a vote dilution finding that I don't think is clearly 326 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,720 articulable in the way that SFFA requires a finding of 327 00:21:10,799 --> 00:21:12,480 discrimination to be specified. 328 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,559 Speaker 3: Now, all of that legal too many people, gobbly goog 329 00:21:16,839 --> 00:21:19,400 means this, and we just hit it. All that stuff 330 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:23,160 that happened in the past, all those literary literacy tests, 331 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,279 the poll taxes, all this other stuff Democrats put in 332 00:21:28,279 --> 00:21:31,359 it's still what's governing the law today, and it's time 333 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:36,319 to stop it because the Democrat, racist Democrats, wicked Democrats, 334 00:21:36,559 --> 00:21:39,319 have been run out of the Seaule for the most part, 335 00:21:40,279 --> 00:21:42,960 and it's no need for these laws that basically set 336 00:21:43,039 --> 00:21:46,279 up racial districts. And the Court looks at him and says, oh, 337 00:21:46,759 --> 00:21:49,319 we need another racial district That was just what happened 338 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:54,000 in Louisiana, and it's time to stop this stuff. Now. 339 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,359 Why is it so important? This is going to be 340 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,559 a long cut. It's important because it comes two things 341 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:06,920 happening at the same time. Two things. One is this 342 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:14,279 fight over redistricting, which this matters with this Voting Rights 343 00:22:14,319 --> 00:22:20,640 Act business as you know, Texas redistricting, then California redistricted. 344 00:22:21,079 --> 00:22:23,759 Then you had all these blue states, and oh, we're 345 00:22:23,799 --> 00:22:27,480 gonna jump on the bandwagon, We're gonna do redistricting. Two, 346 00:22:28,759 --> 00:22:34,160 let's go to Harry intense in cut six and explaining 347 00:22:34,559 --> 00:22:37,799 what happens with redistricting, and at the end to it, 348 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:44,640 he talks specifically about what could happen as a result 349 00:22:44,759 --> 00:22:48,440 of this Supreme Court ruling, and that, my friends, will 350 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,400 tell you how important this is. 351 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,599 Speaker 10: Seventeen twenty eighteen right, because that's sort of the baseline 352 00:22:53,599 --> 00:22:55,680 that was, of course the first Trump term. That was 353 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:57,799 where Democrats are sort of keeping pace. You go back 354 00:22:57,799 --> 00:23:00,480 to April. Look at the generic congressional ballot. You see 355 00:23:00,519 --> 00:23:03,319 you see plus three Democrats in twenty twenty five. In April, 356 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,559 you see plus three Democrats back in April of twenty seventeen. 357 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,160 Now jump over to this side of the screen. What happens, Well, 358 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,640 the Democrats are no longer keeping pace with the pace 359 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,519 that they were setting back in twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen. 360 00:23:15,759 --> 00:23:18,119 You look back in twenty seventeen, you saw that the 361 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,160 Democrats had leaped up to an eight point advantage. I 362 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,519 remember covering this. I remember a lot of folks, including myself, saying, 363 00:23:24,519 --> 00:23:27,000 you know what, Republicans look pretty decent right now in 364 00:23:27,079 --> 00:23:28,640 terms of the fact that they had the House, they 365 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,680 had the sender, they had the presidency. But things were 366 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,720 likely going to flip. And I was looking for the 367 00:23:32,759 --> 00:23:35,880 same science this year. The bottom line is it hasn't happened. 368 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 3: Capable. 369 00:23:36,279 --> 00:23:39,279 Speaker 10: When it hasn't happened, Democrats have stayed basically study they 370 00:23:39,279 --> 00:23:43,039 have fallen off the pace. Democrats were way out ahead 371 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,440 back in twenty seventeen on the generic congressional ballot, and 372 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:50,240 now we're basically looking at Democrats ahead. But again they 373 00:23:50,279 --> 00:23:52,160 are so far in back of the pace that they 374 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:53,960 set back there. And so I think what a lot 375 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,519 of folks are seeing. Folks like myself are saying, wait 376 00:23:56,519 --> 00:23:59,200 a minute, given what we might be seeing and redistricting, 377 00:23:59,519 --> 00:24:02,240 is this plus three going to be in a cape baltwoo? 378 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 2: That's what I was going to ask. 379 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,599 Speaker 9: One change from that cycle is also this mid decade. 380 00:24:07,319 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 8: Redistricting effort that we've been covering so much. 381 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:10,839 Speaker 11: Add that in and what do you guess? 382 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 10: Okay, so we add that and we take a look 383 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,720 at the national picture, but then we're of course taking 384 00:24:14,759 --> 00:24:17,680 a look at the state legislators. Right, they are potentially 385 00:24:17,759 --> 00:24:19,759 changing things. And there are two things that are going 386 00:24:19,759 --> 00:24:23,680 on here. First off, mid decade redistricting gains. If both 387 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,039 sides max out at this point, there are more Republican 388 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,559 gains possible than Democratic AIGs. Yes, the Democrats might try 389 00:24:30,559 --> 00:24:33,200 to counter a Texas in a California, but you go 390 00:24:33,319 --> 00:24:36,160 along in the different states and basically Democrats run out 391 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,079 of room where Republicans are able to gain and gain 392 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,200 and gain. If both sides max out, we're probably looking 393 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,640 at a GOP gain of plus seven House seats. That 394 00:24:45,759 --> 00:24:48,920 doesn't even take into account the potential visiting of the 395 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:50,680 VRA that is right now going to be the fun 396 00:24:50,759 --> 00:24:53,599 of the Supreme Court. If you add that in, you 397 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,279 would be looking yes, exactly right, the Voting Rights ac 398 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,920 if you add that, and then you could be looking 399 00:25:00,079 --> 00:25:04,240 about adding ten, twelve, fifteen, seventeen on top of this 400 00:25:04,519 --> 00:25:06,599 seven seats. So I think a lot of folks like 401 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,880 myself were looking at this, we're seeing, Hey, wait a minute, 402 00:25:09,039 --> 00:25:11,599 those national polls are Democrats are not gaining the way 403 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:12,359 that we expected. 404 00:25:14,279 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 3: Folks. This voting rights thing, the way Democrats have been 405 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,920 using the Voters Rights Acts to stack up districts that 406 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,720 can be touched is challenged. And you just heard Harry 407 00:25:23,759 --> 00:25:26,559 Ins and CNN just basically say, wait a minute. If 408 00:25:26,599 --> 00:25:28,839 the court rules on this, and we've already got this 409 00:25:29,039 --> 00:25:33,319 redistricting stuff, Republicans will already set to gain seven seats, 410 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:40,119 seven seats potentially if redistricting, if all this stuff works 411 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:44,640 the way people think it might, then if this Voting 412 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:49,839 Rights Act clause is struck down and states can write 413 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:54,400 districts the way they should without regard to race, the 414 00:25:54,519 --> 00:25:58,400 Republicans might be able through redistricting to pick up an 415 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:05,880 additional up to seventeen seats. That would mean, on top 416 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,599 of the majority that you have now, Republicans would hold 417 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,720 about a twenty six twenty seven seat advantage in Congress. 418 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,519 In the House. You put that with the presidency, and 419 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:25,319 Democrats would be wiped out. That's what it means, and 420 00:26:25,319 --> 00:26:30,279 that's why they're fighting this stuff tooth and nails. Now, Carlos, 421 00:26:30,279 --> 00:26:33,319 before the other break, you said to me that you 422 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,799 think the priorities should be what right now? Not all 423 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,920 this stuff? What is the more important to you? 424 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 9: I thought the priorities should be having the city safe, 425 00:26:43,559 --> 00:26:45,839 because if people were afraid to you know, walk on 426 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,960 the street and everything, that shouldn't be a fear that 427 00:26:49,039 --> 00:26:51,160 you should have on a day to day basis. 428 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 3: So the safety of this city should come before they safe. 429 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 4: You other cities and the people, instead of like looking 430 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,200 into making the you know, the seat is bigger or 431 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:06,200 your your interests would align, you know, Okay, later. 432 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 3: On, let me say to you that's exactly how this 433 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:12,039 what this fight is all about, though, Carlos. The cities 434 00:27:12,079 --> 00:27:17,200 are unsafe because the same political parties. You look at 435 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,759 You're in New York, Carls, you are in New York. 436 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:26,799 The Democrats have run New York effectively for almost two centuries. 437 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:34,200 You look at look at Chicago since mayor daily, since 438 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,240 all the Democrats have run Chicago. You look at these 439 00:27:38,319 --> 00:27:42,519 other blue cities where they are protected by you can't redistrict, 440 00:27:42,519 --> 00:27:45,319 You can't do anything because you have these minority populations. 441 00:27:45,839 --> 00:27:49,839 Look at Memphis, Look at Dallas, Look at Houston, Look 442 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:54,000 at La Look at Philadelphia, Look at Trenton, New Jersey. 443 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,559 Look at Canon, New Jersey, Look at Patterson, New Jersey. 444 00:27:58,079 --> 00:28:01,400 Look at you go through, Look at Canvas City, Look 445 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,880 everywhere Democrats populate. They have used this voting Right Act 446 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:11,920 to make sure nobody can touch them. And what is 447 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,440 happening now is all that is being now. The Democrats 448 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,200 are still gonna win. New York's a blue sitting, no 449 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:21,720 matter what, It's still gonna be blue. But Democrats have 450 00:28:21,839 --> 00:28:25,759 come to believe that they own majority black owned districts. 451 00:28:26,279 --> 00:28:28,759 Nobody can do anything. And that's what this whole voting 452 00:28:28,839 --> 00:28:32,279 rights game is. And what have they done with that power? 453 00:28:33,759 --> 00:28:37,319 They have made every single one of those cities where 454 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:43,200 they run unsafe for people to live every You're right, 455 00:28:44,559 --> 00:28:53,240 the safety should come first, but it doesn't. It doesn't. 456 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,759 And this is what is happening, and this is why 457 00:28:56,799 --> 00:29:00,640 this is so dangerous. Now, you give me a great opening. Twelve. 458 00:29:01,359 --> 00:29:04,440 This is a black guy who lives in one of 459 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:09,400 those cities you're talking about that Democrats have been running 460 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:15,960 because institutionally they own it because of this Voting Rights 461 00:29:16,039 --> 00:29:19,039 Act and other legislation. Listen to what he has to say. 462 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,599 Speaker 11: It's been real quiet in Memphis. 463 00:29:21,599 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 12: As a matter of fact, I haven't seen so many 464 00:29:24,279 --> 00:29:28,400 black people appreciating President Trump out of a place like 465 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,440 that ever, to be honest. And these people are going 466 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,039 out in the streets and they're letting their kids play 467 00:29:34,079 --> 00:29:38,119 in the front yards and they're enjoying this, this type 468 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,160 of piece that they haven't had in a very long time. 469 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:44,279 You see, they've had a very very big issue with crime. 470 00:29:44,839 --> 00:29:47,960 And since national guards come. You have parents that are 471 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:49,920 saying that they haven't been able to let their kids 472 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,039 play in front of the house like this for years, 473 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,279 Like they almost don't even know what that's like, you know, 474 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,400 And so they're taking to social media because they were 475 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,359 grateful that their children a safe and they feel safe 476 00:30:01,359 --> 00:30:03,279 and that they can go and they can walk up 477 00:30:03,279 --> 00:30:04,039 and down the street. 478 00:30:04,039 --> 00:30:05,559 Speaker 11: You imagine not being able. 479 00:30:05,319 --> 00:30:08,559 Speaker 12: To go for a walk outside on the street because 480 00:30:08,559 --> 00:30:11,160 you're worried about gang violence or you're worried that you 481 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,240 might get robbed. You imagine that these people haven't experienced 482 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,559 that in the years, and now they're able to go 483 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,480 out there and enjoy their neighborhoods. This hasn't happened for 484 00:30:21,519 --> 00:30:25,319 so long, and it's a good thing. Obviously, there's going 485 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,400 to be one side the opposition who is very upset 486 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,200 because these individuals are not slaying each other. 487 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 11: And I hate to say that, but it's factually true. 488 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 12: They are complaining right now because these individuals are experiencing peace. 489 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,799 Speaker 3: That is profound. And that's why this is so important, Carlos. 490 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:50,119 It's time to change this. The people that are suffering 491 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:55,200 the most are the people that these people that Democrats 492 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:59,960 claim to represent, and they've been suffering. Nobody's picked up 493 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,000 call to now. I just want to say a word 494 00:31:04,079 --> 00:31:06,680 or two before we get out of here today, because 495 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,200 we gotta take a break about this story I started 496 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,119 with yesterday, this young Republican stuff. I got a lot 497 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,880 more to say about this. I will say I am 498 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,720 very disappointed in jd Vance. I am extremely disappointed in J. 499 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:25,240 D Vance and his remarks. Oh, James, I'm not I know, 500 00:31:25,279 --> 00:31:27,759 I'm not supposed to say that. We just all no, 501 00:31:27,839 --> 00:31:31,359 I'm disappointed. His response to all of this was to 502 00:31:31,359 --> 00:31:32,759 go out and say, oh, well, you know what Jay 503 00:31:32,839 --> 00:31:36,279 Johnson said. What Ja Johnson Downald Virginia said was worse. 504 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,559 What j Johnson said in Virginia is terrible, and he 505 00:31:40,599 --> 00:31:43,359 needs to never run for office. And you're right, for 506 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:47,200 goodness sakes, jd Vance. Your wife is a woman of color. 507 00:31:47,319 --> 00:31:51,039 She happens to be Indian. And some of these vile 508 00:31:51,119 --> 00:31:55,799 remarks made by these people were against people like your wife, 509 00:31:56,359 --> 00:31:59,880 against people like me, against people that have supported this 510 00:32:00,039 --> 00:32:03,359 party through hell and high water. And you can't find 511 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:09,160 it in yourself to denounce these cretans in the Republican 512 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,119 Party that need to be driven out of this party forever. 513 00:32:16,119 --> 00:32:23,359 Just very disappointed. These people are horrific, These young Republicans 514 00:32:23,359 --> 00:32:26,519 we talked about yesterday, they need to be run out 515 00:32:26,519 --> 00:32:29,240 of this party in disgrace. And it means to be 516 00:32:29,319 --> 00:32:36,920 made clear, this is never acceptable. The days of calling 517 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,920 people black people, monkeys, and all the rest of us 518 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,039 let alone. I cannot believe that any Republican would ever 519 00:32:43,079 --> 00:32:46,039 open up his mouth of conservative and praise Adolf Hitler 520 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,920 and talk about gas chambers in the ways that these people. 521 00:32:49,079 --> 00:32:53,559 What the hell have these people been thinking? And they 522 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,839 need to be denounced from every quarter of decent American society. 523 00:32:58,039 --> 00:33:00,839 I don't care what political party people belong to. I 524 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:04,160 don't care what the damn outcome is on an election. 525 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:09,480 This vile, ugly, freaking behavior in this country needs to stop. 526 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,920 I don't care whether it's Republicans saying it, Democrats sang it, 527 00:33:13,119 --> 00:33:16,720 whoever sang it. This kind of evil hatred in the 528 00:33:16,799 --> 00:33:22,160 political parties needs to stop and find you have the 529 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:25,599 guts to take on everybody else on take on these people. 530 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,720 Take a break, and James Goldner's slowly fastest hour in 531 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:32,440 American media continues. 532 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 5: Don't go away, The Rush Hour with James Goldish on 533 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:49,680 the Red Apple Podcast Network.

Judge temporarily 536 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,160 Trump from firing workers during this shut down. Another one 537 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:08,320 of these district judges. Democrats threatened to see Trump in 538 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:16,079 court over firings. Democrats are objecting to US paying Donald 539 00:34:16,119 --> 00:34:20,840 Trump arranging for the troops to be paid out in California. 540 00:34:21,559 --> 00:34:25,719 What they do They declared a state of emergency over 541 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:31,320 immigrant over deportations, and that has all kind of legal implications. 542 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,320 We'll get to that tomorrow. I hope Robert Ward was 543 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:38,280 born on this day in nineteen thirty eight, passed away 544 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,320 in two thousand and eight.
