	Description:		The Supreme Court axed a 2024 voting map from Louisiana that created a new majority-Black congressional district, calling the district an “unconstitutional racial gerrymander.” Law professor Spencer Overton explains what the ruling could mean for Black political power. Then, former FBI director James Comey surrendered to federal authorities Wednesday on charges he threatened President Trump's life when he posted an image of seashells on the beach spelling out “86 47.” Former federal prosecutor Paul Butler shares more about the merits of the indictment. And, House Democrats grilled Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth about the war on Iran, President Trump's behavior and the ongoing Straight of Hormuz closure. The Washington Post’s Tara Copp explains more. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.
