@ChuckKittrell @JustinBamberg The ironic thing is- to engineer a district against Jim Clyburn, Republicans will have to intentionally split black voters up into other districts.

@KingsRow911 @JustinBamberg What court are you talking about? The Supreme Court doesn’t rule that for specific states. But if you can’t see that Clyburn’s district is racially gerrymandered that’s on you.
English
Politics is broken when a rally cry to NOT gerrymander more is based on a state being the most gerrymandered Republican state in America. How have we let this happen to ourselves in this country??

South Carolina State Senate Majority Leader @shanemassey: "We are the most gerrymandered Republican state in the country already."

@ChuckKittrell @JustinBamberg This is Republican Jim Jordan's Ohio district- carefully crafted to keep minority citizens to a minimum- to ensure Jim wins. It's 85.9% white and 4% black.
Ohio's black population is 14%. Ohio republicans engineered Jim's district to have as few black people as possible.
English
@ChuckKittrell @JustinBamberg States don't have to "ensure" a district isn't racially gerrymandered. Plantiffs have to bring a claim and prove it is in court
you've got it exactly backwards
A citizen (state) doesn't have to prove they didn't break a law. The government (state) has to prove they did.
English
@ChuckKittrell @JustinBamberg The court didn't rule SC's district was racially gerrymandered Chuck.
You are making stuff up.
English
@JustinBamberg We let it happen because politicians didn’t have the courage to stand up to racially gerrymandered districts and had to let the Supreme Court make a ruling against racism.

@Cassiodorus2025 calling Shane Massey a democrat is proof someone is clueless

@JustinBamberg this is what open primaries gets you.

@ChuckKittrell @JustinBamberg He's the most powerful South Carolina senator- by far.
Why would his district throw that away to redistrict maps that would give Democrats a better chance than they have today of winning 1-2 more seats?
That would be really stupid

@JustinBamberg Massey just kissed his life in politics goodbye in 2028. He will be the most hated politician in SC.

@GingerSottile @ImFiredUp2 SC typically votes Democrat 40-45% in governor's elections- and has 1 Dem seat
SC having 1-2 Dem seats is perfectly reasonable- and Justin, given his record working with Republicans, would likely agree that those NE states should have a minimum of 1 GOP seat
English
@ImFiredUp2 @JustinBamberg Are you sure? Show us some comparable stats for those states. SC population is approx 45% POC.
English
@ImFiredUp2 @JustinBamberg South Carolina votes Democrat 40-45% in governor's elections- and has 1 Dem seat.
I am not sure your map is the "gotcha" you think it is since Justin isn't a rep for any of those states and given his record of working with Republicans on many issues in South Carolina.
English
@JustinBamberg I am glad your "buddy" @collins_neal didn't get his way. He voted to proceed on this issue.
With friends like Neal, no one needs any friends.

@BradWarthen Micah Caskey sure was defending the attempt to redraw the legislative districts at the last second on his Facebook account.
What a party hack buffoon that guy turned out to be.

Asked what the Framers had come up with, Ben Franklin said "A republic, if you can keep it." Apparently, we couldn't. It looks more and more like that every day...

President Donald Trump, in a post on Truth Social, told Republicans in the South Carolina statehouse he was “closely” watching their actions on redistricting. The Senate could vote as soon as today to extend session. postandcourier.com/politics/sc-tr…

Well, it's @BillHemmer making up nonsense- as usual.
This is the "respect the audience" approach that @BretBaier advocates- even if it means making up stuff and taking things out of context.

Contrary to this post, the report was delivered about two months ago and detailed in an open hearing before a state legislative committee And the auditor himself testified he could not prove fraud Such needless breathless urgency...

The Washington Post Editorial Board defended Trump's $1 billion White House Ballroom.
But according to them, California spending $12 million to provide diapers for newborn babies "infantilizes new parents."

@Thinktologist @EdCSutton @HarmeetKDhillon There is no ruling that says the current maps are non-compliant
Republicans created the current map to increase the odds of Republican wins, not as a favor to Rep Jim Clyburn.
The proposed map would have given Democrats a better chance at winning 3 districts
English
@EdCSutton Your current map is non-compliant. You're begging a lawsuit by @HarmeetKDhillon if you don't redraw it on no-racial lines

Republicans drew our current South Carolina maps, not Dems.
Stop insulting people's intelligence by pretending otherwise.
Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette@PamelaEvette
South Carolina’s voters elected strong Republican majorities in the State House and Senate to deliver fair, constitutional congressional maps that end Democrat racial gerrymandering and strengthen our conservative stronghold. The Senate’s refusal to advance these efforts today is a betrayal of the people of South Carolina and a direct defiance of President Trump's clear call to produce maps that honor the will of our voters and put America First. There is no time for hesitation or excuses. We must finish this redistricting work now, by any means necessary, to deliver representation rooted in the Constitution, not identity politics. I stand with conservatives across South Carolina and President Trump in leading this fight to end the rigged maps, eliminate racial gerrymandering, and maximize the conservative stronghold. The integrity of our elections and the future of our state demand nothing less.

Republicans drew the current district maps in use by South Carolina. Democrats didn't.

In Butler, Trump was shot in the ear, on live television. A man seated behind him was killed by one of the bullets.
Vince Coglianese@VinceCoglianese
42 percent of Democrats believe the Butler, PA assassination attempt on President Trump was staged. This isn't a small group. Massive numbers of Democrat voters are living in a complete state of delusion.

That system is now built
We should now repeal the federal gasoline tax and let each state maintain its portion of the interstate highway system—with its own revenue—as was the plan from the beginning

Look at this Virginia senator. He’s giddy and can barely contain his joy over a rise in inflation. What a hack.

Inflation is surging. The war is still raging. How is Donald Trump possibly defending this on the global stage?
