With the new TN districts broken up 29%, 29%, and 32% Black the only thing not adding up here is the GOP’s claim this new map “isn’t about race”. I’m no mathematician, but if you see a pattern, assume it’s telling you something. Numbers don’t lie— people do.
See my interview with Alex Coleman at WREG Studios in half an hour and later my interview with Kim Clark at WMC Studios around 4pm.

Trump Administration Live Updates: $1.8 Billion Fund Could Funnel Money to Trump Allies www.nytimes.com/live/2026/05...
WE ARE NOW AN AUTOCRATIC STATE! TRUMP CONTROLS THE TAXPAYERS MONEY. HE GIVES IT TO HIS FRIENDS AND HOOLIGANS OF I/6. THE MOST CORRUPT ADMINISTRATION IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.😩🥲😱
Thank you.
After 19 years serving the 9th District, I made the decision to not run in the new gerrymandered districts created from it. If the courts restore the current 9th until 2028, I’ll remain a candidate, though that’s unlikely. Representing Memphis for 47 years has been the honor of my lifetime.

@repcohen.bsky.social did good work for Memphis and his district. Cohen said the proven racist felon Trump is, “the greatest threat to democracy and to decorum and grace that we’ve ever seen.” To split up the 2 largest cities, Nashville and Memphis isn't good.

John Roberts says the SCOTUS isn't political, then scurries to service the GOP when they can't win on their own merit.
What did the SCOTUS do when Trump got nervous after VA? They JUMPED INTO ACTION to gut the VRA and steal the voice of an entire city.
They're the political arm of the White House.
The TN GOP is willing to strip away voting rights that people died for—and to deny the second largest city in their own state effective representation in Congress for decades to come—just to try and help Trump avoid Democratic oversight for another 2 years.
Memphis isn't going down without a fight.
Go Spartans!
Vladimir thank you for your post. You have been and always will be an inspiration to me not to give up and to fight against all odds for justice and democracy

The ongoing gerrymandering race in the U.S. has just claimed the Tennessee district of Congressman Steve Cohen @repcohen.bsky.social, ranking member of the U.S. Helsinki Commission, OSCE Parliamentary Assembly Special Representative on Political Prisoners, and...

Be on CNN in about 4 minutes re: Tn. Jim Crow redistricting
And just like that, the TN GOP voted to enforce a racial gerrymander of Memphis and strip our city of effective representation for decades.
Trump knows he HAS TO rig the game to keep his majority in November. And the TN GOP was willing to go along with it.
It’s shameful.
Next stop is the courts.
