Mollie Hemingway told FBN's Stuart "Varney & Co." that President Obama's recent comments about "rule of law" and the Republican Party are "reprehensible" coming from him.

Tennessee’s Republican-controlled legislature approved a new congressional map Thursday that dismantles the state’s majority-Black district and will likely secure them an all-GOP federal delegation.

The redraw comes as Republican-led Southern states scramble to enact new maps in the wake of last week’s Supreme Court ruling that weakened Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and opened the door to states blowing up blue districts drawn to protect the voting power of racial minorities.

The new map aims to draw the state’s lone Democratic congressional representative — Rep. Steve Cohen — out of his Memphis-area seat by splitting up majority-Black Shelby County. It also divides Maury County, likely delivering a more favorable district to Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.), who is on the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s target list.

“The Supreme Court has opined that redistricting, like the judicial system, should be color-blind,” said Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton in a social media post. “The decision indicated states can redistrict based off partisan politics.”

Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee, a Republican, is expected to sign the map into law imminently. He called the legislature into a special session last week to pass the map.

“We owe it to Tennesseans to ensure our congressional districts accurately reflect the will of Tennessee voters,” Lee said in a statement Friday. “After consultation with the Lt. Governor, Speaker of the House, Attorney General, and Secretary of State, I believe the General Assembly has a responsibility to review the map and ensure it remains fair, legal, and defensible.”

Tennessee is the first state to finalize a new congressional map after last week’s Supreme Court decision. Louisiana’s GOP-controlled legislature is expected to unveil a new map as soon as this week, and Republicans in South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi and Alabama are pushing to do the same.

For months, polling and prediction markets have forecast that Democrats will retake the House, but that Republicans will retain control of the Senate. However, recently, the prediction markets have moved toward the Senate being a toss-up. The latest RCP Senate Map lists eight toss up states and three in the Leans category. These 11 states are where the battle for the Senate will be decided.

Despite the US and Iran exchanging fire and new missile attacks aimed at the United Arab Emirates this week, the Trump administration maintains that the ceasefire that began in early April is still in effect. Iran's attacks on commercial and US Navy ships are still "all below the threshold of restarting major combat operations at this point," according to Joint Chiefs Chair Gen. Dan Caine.

Hopefully senators starring in the failure theater production of 'debating' the SAVE America Act heard Indiana's message loud and clear.

When Donald Trump furiously ordered his minions to find and fund primary challenges to seven Indiana Republican state senators who refused to conduct a mid-decade gerrymander that he demanded late last year, it looked like just the typical act of a vengeance-obsessed president who couldn't abide being defied.

After a Supreme Court ruling that weakened the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Republicans carved up a majority-Black Memphis seat as the national redistricting wars continue.

Fed Chairman Jerome Powell announced last week that he's going to remain on the Federal Reserve Board until 2028 even as he by law surrenders his chairmanship. The announcement came even after President Donald Trump agreed to drop his unwise lawsuit against Powell for funding a $2 billion new Taj Mahal building down the street from the White House.
