However, flagrant gerrymandering continues in states like Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, and Georgia. The NAACP argues that South Carolina's new map breaches the Equal Protection Clause of the constitution. The challenge for the Supreme Court is determining if the map was drawn with racial intent.

Daily Signal: Evidence Again Shows Masks Don’t Stop Viruses
Dr. Anthony Fauci supports wearing face masks to prevent the spread of coronavirus, but there is conflicting evidence on their effectiveness.

Controlled trials have shown no significant difference in viral spread between mask wearers and non-wearers. A natural experiment comparing Germany's mask mandate to Sweden's lack of mandate showed similar COVID-19 death rates. Despite ongoing research, there is currently no solid evidence to support mask mandates. There is anecdotal evidence from the grain industry that masks are not effective against viruses.
