Elena Kagan is in the news for her role in key Supreme Court cases on Trump’s policies and social issues. She’s a 2010 appointee, the 4th woman on the Court.
The U.S. Supreme Court temporarily blocked a lower court ruling that found Texas's new congressional map likely racial gerrymandering. The map, drawn at Trump's urging, favors Republicans and is set to be used in 2026, despite legal challenges alleging racial bias. The decision impacts upcoming elections and signals ongoing partisan redistricting battles.
