The Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Louisiana v. Callais, a case that will determine the fate of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.
The case revolves around Congressional district maps in Louisiana, which has six districts. The outcome is expected to be disastrous for Black voters and Democrats.
The six Republican justices are going to declare the Voting Rights Act inert and allow the dilution of Black voting rights through racist gerrymandering.
Oral arguments were largely an exercise in justifying racist positions, with the justices' decision likely made before the hearings.
