## Resource

Gerrymandering is back in the headlines — and this time, the political map wars in Texas and California are colliding with the courts, the Constitution, and the future of American democracy. Richard Epstein explains the history of gerrymandering, how modern technology turbocharges it, and why recent Supreme Court rulings have made the problem even harder to fix. From Texas judges tossing out new maps, to California’s counter-move, to the racial redistricting battles now reaching the Supreme Court — this conversation dives into the legal chaos, the political incentives, and the structural weaknesses that keep the cycle going.
