President Trump is attempting to disenfranchise the Latino community with a highly gerrymandered map that would directly target Rep. Greg Casar’s (D-TX) seat and other minority-majority districts in the state.
Rep. Casar and Jen spoke about the danger of disenfranchising Latino and African-American communities through re-districting maps, RFK Jr.’s disastrous hearing where he tried to defend his anti-vax positions, and how the Democratic Party can go beyond being just the ‘anti-Trump’ party and offer a positive platform.
And after, Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) [19:28] spoke with Jen after sitting in on two Senate hearings with RFK Jr. and a hearing on the decision to attack a fishing vessel, alleged to be carrying drugs, in international waters.
