For the third time in three weeks, the fight over Missouri's congressional map is back

at the U.S. Supreme Court this morning. The latest round comes after a federal appeals court ordered Missouri to use new districts

backed by President Trump, a map the Supreme Court has already blocked twice from taking
0:19
effect for November. The new map reshapes a Kansas City-area district held by Democrat Emanuel Cleaver and was drawn
