7am: President Donald Trump is asking the Supreme Court to allow for the deployment of National Guard troops in Illinois, claiming they are needed to protect ICE agents. This comes as immigration enforcement tactics in Chicago have escalated. Plus, ICE agents have repeatedly clashed with protestors despite a judge's restraining order banning the agents from using riot control techniques. MSNBC political analyst Molly Jong-Fast joins "The Weekend" to discuss.

8am: The provision was meant to protect voters from racial gerrymandering that weakens minority voting power. Many of the seats that could be affected are in the Deep South. — the very region the Voting Rights Act was written to protect. The outcome could shift as many as 19 House seats toward Republicans. Janai Nelson and Jelani Cobb join The Weekend to discuss the potential effects of the Supreme Court's decision.

9am: The "No Kings" protests are happening in all 50 states and Washington DC today, and organizers expect millions of people to turn out. The movement comes in response to President Trump's agenda, including his National Guard deployments, immigration enforcement, and redistricting efforts. Hunter Dunn, who is helping organize the Downtown Los Angeles demonstration, and former GOP Rep. Joe Walsh, who is speaking at a "No Kings" rally in Connecticut, join "The Weekend" to discuss.
