Summary
Kamala Harris is rallying behind Tennessee’s Rep. Justin J. Pearson, calling his congressional run a frontline battle against GOP redistricting that undermines Black voting power in Memphis — a move she says is “backdoor racism.” Pearson, who gained national attention after being expelled for a gun control protest, champions protest as “as American as apple pie” and has earned an Indivisible endorsement. Meanwhile, Sen. Marsha Blackburn hosted a high-profile GOP summit with Trump allies like Kash Patel and Stephen Miller, while Columbia Mayor Chaz Molder received a boost from Rep. Steve Cohen in a redrawn district. And in a bipartisan win, Blackburn and Klobuchar’s Safe Cloud Storage Act — designed to protect evidence in child exploitation cases — cleared Senate hurdles, inching closer to law.
