Not just any dissent — one from his newest colleague, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who accused the Supreme Court of trading principle for power and dragging itself into the middle of an election year. He answered her. Sharply. In writing. With Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch standing beside him. The case was Louisiana. The map. The fight everyone in Washington had been watching.

The map must be redrawn before voters can return to it. Gov.
