Tennessee just completely disenfranchised its black voters after the Supreme Court gave red states the green light to rig the midterms by redistricting black majority districts out of existence—as long as lawmakers pretend they don’t see color when they’re doing it.

Sure sounds like the free speech rules of the Trump administration, where people are free to say what Republicans want said.
