Nicolle Wallace: 'Our ballot is soaked in blood': Warnock attacks Trump voter suppression plot

Jul 6, 2026 The Best People with Nicolle Wallace

Senator Raphael Warnock understands that we are in a tough moment in our country. But he hasn’t lost faith — and he doesn’t want us to do so either. Warnock joins Nicolle Wallace for an important talk about an increasingly activist Supreme Court and a system he sees as “overrun with money and corruption.” They begin by addressing why decisions on redistricting (Louisiana v. Callais) and ending temporary protected status for Haitian and Syrian immigrants (Mullin v. Doe) have made, in the Senator’s estimation, "the most activist court we have seen certainly in my lifetime.” He also grapples with the blatant grift happening in plain sight by President Trump and his family, and why Republicans only seem to show courage on their way out the door. But even as voting rights are threatened and wealth inequality continues to grow, Senator Warnock urges us to renew our faith — in our beliefs and in one another. And he holds a deep-rooted belief that while rights are not inevitable, following the example of his mentor, the late John Lewis, “when you don't know what else to do, keep walking. Keep walking across that bridge.”
