@micah_erfan @jlgolson The only reason democrats want to ban it now because they have gerrymandered the hell out of every state possible.

@jlgolson Gerrymandering is bad. Republicans have done it. Democrats have done it.
Only one side has endorsed a federal ban, however. And the other side instead of passing it is going for maximum gerrymanders in state after state to rig their way to victory.
That’s wrong.
English
10 red states have or are in the process of imposing brutal gerrymanders without a single vote.
2 blue states have responded with voter-approved temporary redraws. Democrats have also introduced a bill to ban gerrymandering nationwide.
Both sides are not the same.

Graham Platner said women who are sexually assaulted should "take responsibility"
He called rural Americans "racist" & "stupid"
He praised Hamas
He said "all cops are bastards"
This is who Democrats want in the Senate.

@jason_howerton @Riley_Gaines_ @JasmineForUS She's too dumb to understand she's only a tool. She's replaceable at any point by another tool.

Actually, @JasmineForUS, you’re not “powerful” at all. You’re a public servant. You’re the opposite of powerful. Once upon a time, those who chose to serve understood this.
You are the employee of your constituents, you’re just too ignorant to realize it.

Jasmine Crockett: “The level of disrespect that is continuously lobbed against us as black women. I am one of the 535 most powerful people in this country. And for some reason, you think we on the same level, but you gonna disrespect me?"

This is what incitement of violence sounds like. These are not insults or ridicule. These are incitements of violence.
This type of rhetoric is meant to make people believe that Trump and his supporters are a direct threat to them, their families, and the country.
Democrats create imaginary threats and then promise to save people from said threats. Look no further than the No Kings rallies. A bunch of people protesting a king that does not exist.
When a political party is constantly preaching to the country that the other side is out to hurt them and to hurt the most vulnerable people in society, it shouldn't be a surprise when some people attempt to end the threats that they actually believe exist.

@rosadelauro How exactly does it change anyone's right to vote? All it does is forbid districting based on race.

Today’s decision will drastically harm voting rights. We must guarantee citizens’ participation and representation in our democracy & protect the sacred right to vote which has made this nation great.
Failure risks the end of American democracy.

@SenWarren You're fucking stupid. The whole fucking thing is privately funded. Even if he does not build it, it will not change the affordability of anything for U.S. citizens. The ballroom is needed, fuck off already.
English
Right now, I'm BLOCKING a Republican bill to build Donald Trump's ballroom.
Instead of rubber-stamping Trump’s gold-encrusted ballroom, Congress must lower costs for American families. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

The United States Supreme Court has just gutted the Voting Rights Act. This is a sad day for America.
We will continue to fight back!

The Supreme Court just made it easier to draw minority voters out of power. That's what today's ruling does.
Kagan said Section 2 is now "all but a dead letter." She's right.
States can gerrymander by race as long as they call it partisanship, and the Court handed them the playbook to do so.

NEWS: In a major 6–3 decision, the Supreme Court has struck down Louisiana’s congressional map that added a second majority-Black district, ruling it unconstitutional as a racial gerrymander. The opinion, written by Justice Samuel Alito, narrows how the Voting Rights Act is interpreted moving forward. Justice Elena Kagan, in a sharp dissent joined by the Court’s other liberal justices, warned that the ruling weakens protections against racial discrimination in voting—arguing it allows states to dilute minority voting power “without legal consequence.” She described the decision as part of a broader trend that has steadily eroded key provisions of the Voting Rights Act since 2013. While the Court did not overturn the law entirely, the ruling could have significant consequences. Louisiana is now likely to lose a Democratic-leaning district, and other states may revisit their own maps amid ongoing redistricting battles.

@SeminoleM25149 @Savsays What did she do to agitate? I watched the videos. And leftist activist journalists don't push their agenda only? And it's kinda funny that you are all for deportation when you just don't like the person. She was born in Texas.

Cannot express how grateful I am at how swiftly the DOJ and FBI handled this.
They’ve been doing an incredible job for the American people lately and I could not be more appreciative 🙏 🇺🇸

@ctrl4ltpers0na @Savsays What did she do to pick a fight? Document a protest?

@SeminoleM25149 @Savsays What dumb shit? Documenting a protest at a federal building?
English
@Savsays Total overkill for federal officials to get involved because you got pushed. Maybe you will stop doing dumb shit.

It's been 7 months since we had our baby and we're still receiving unexplained hospital bills in the mail.
Hardly ever an adequate description of services. Just a QR code to pay online.
It feels intentionally confusing and difficult to get answers. We want price transparency.

@Hickenlooper Fucking OBAMACARE ruined healthcare. I used to have decent insurance, now its a deductible 5x higher for shitty care.
English
Americans are delaying – or avoiding medical care all together – because getting the care they need costs too much.
Republicans catapulted us into a full-blown health care crisis when they scrapped Medicaid funding and gave tax breaks to the ultra-rich. They need to fix it.
