Welcome to Callais-a-palooza, where Sarah Isgur and David French discuss Louisiana v. Callais, the Supreme Court decision that struck down Lousiana's congresional map and allows Louisiana to draw a new map that will likely favor Republicans.

The Agenda:
—Sarah's dad is unconstitutional
—The 32-day question
—The three Honey Badgers
—Partisan gerrymandering on steroids
—“Kavanaugh stops" and Callais
—Listener questions!
