CNN panel debate between Bakari Sellers and Kevin O'Leary over Supreme Court redistricting ruling
CNN commentator Bakari Sellers and Shark Tank investor Kevin O'Leary clashed on air Monday over a Supreme Court decision allowing Alabama to redraw its congressional map. Sellers invoked civil rights history and told O'Leary not to be dismissive, while O'Leary argued the Constitution grants states the authority to decide redistricting. The exchange became heated with Sellers using profanity to express frustration over O'Leary's tone.
