10.30.2025 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Shutdown Day 30: Faith Leaders Blast MAGA Neglect, GA Power Fight, VA Redistricting Push, AfroTech 2025

LIVE from the 2025 AfroTech Convention in Houston's George R. Brown Convention Center.   

No prayers were answered this week in D.C.'s halls of power, as we reach day 30 of the Trump-MAGA government shutdown. Democratic and faith leaders are calling out lawmakers for neglecting the nation's most vulnerable populations.

Next week, Georgia voters will decide who will fill two Public Service Commission seats that control the state's electricity rates and energy policies. I'll be speaking with Dr. Alicia Johnson about her candidacy for one of those positions.

We'll also discuss how Virginia Democrats are proactively addressing the attack on Black congressional districts. The House of Delegates advanced a constitutional amendment on Wednesday that would allow the state to redraw its congressional lines if another state conducts mid-cycle redistricting.
