BREAKING: Supreme Court allows Texas to use GOP's gerrymandered map - The Weeknight - MS NOW



The Supreme Court has allowed Texas to move forward with its disputed congressional map, a decision that could net Republicans five additional House seats next year. In a 6-3 ruling, the conservative majority granted a stay blocking a lower court decision that found the map relied on racial sorting, while the dissent warned the order harms millions of Texans assigned to districts based on race. The Weeknight hosts weigh in. - Aired on 12/04/2025.
