Something needs to change. We can’t go on with political assassinations every 6 months.

Constitution says that districts must be compact, respect regional lines, not favor or disfavor any political party and not favor incumbents.
FL-23 is switching from pac-man to a square, FL-20 is changing from a Plate carrying robot to... another square.
Map is fair.

@suburbanwinebro @_the_joe_sizzle @PpollingNumbers This isn't really packing, we're not drawing nasty districts to get as many D's as possible. Not our fault the Ds are compactly in one spot
But sure, convince yourself that a 7-0R FL SC will shoot this down

🔴 News - Ron DeSantis unveils new Florida congressional map adding 4 GOP seats, creating a 24R-4D split.
English
@_the_joe_sizzle @PpollingNumbers Homophobia so early in the day? Libs never cease to shock
English
@suburbanwinebro @_the_joe_sizzle @PpollingNumbers Its a more compact map, and doesn't need to draw eldritch tentacles to make sure people can win seats :)
Next up is section 2 boyo

@Lenector1 @_the_joe_sizzle @PpollingNumbers it being Trump+13 doesn’t matter if you’re arguing for anything other than proportionality.
English
@MarcACaputo The consultant should be fired, these seats are all double digit Trump seats. If we're losing double digit trump seats, the house was long since lost.

No shock DeSantis is trying to carve a net of 4 additional GOP seats in Florida
But is this a guarantee?
Nope

DeSantis announces new congressional maps via Fox DeSantis says this is about truing up the census & ending racial gerrymandering —but he’s not proposing new state legislative maps FL Legislature, which plans to begin rubber-stamping them tomorrow in an effort to grow the GOP-leaning U.S. House seats, has yet to see the map

RT @chriswithans: I see Ron DeSantis has gone with the moderate option, much like Texas. I do not fault him, for he is a man of integrity…

@ASFleischman Thriving? They've gotten into a population death spiral and will vanish in a generation at this rate.

North Korea killed a million South Korean civilians (20 times the civilian death toll in Gaza) and South Korea went on to become a thriving democracy.
North Korea probably should not have invaded.

30 minutes researching the Korean War will make everything North Korea does make sense to you. The US committed a genocidal campaign and wiped it from our history books

From now on when something terrible happens to my liberal friends I’m just gonna say it was staged.
You didn’t get laid off bro, that shit was staged. Or your mom didn’t pass away that car accident was staged.
Let’s see how they like this shit.

@Champie101 @PpollingNumbers The Amendment also says the maps must be compact, this removes Tendrils from south florida and Orlando and makes it more compact ;)
English
@PpollingNumbers It is illegal to gerrymander in Florida. The Fair Districts Amendments to the Florida Constitution, passed by voters in 2010, expressly forbid drawing electoral maps with the intent to favor or disfavor a political party or incumbent.
English
@_the_joe_sizzle @PpollingNumbers This is compact, and represents a Trump +13 state, also the court is all Republicans lol

@earlyvotedata I mean on one hand I feel we should pay VA back with 5 or 6, but our judges aren't hacks, so I suppose we have to take what we get.

I always thought 4 was a good amount.
Let’s go Florida!

@McCormickProf Actually, drastic measures are required when your political opponents consistently try to murder your President.
I can’t believe this has to be explained.
You cannot continue as normal when one side is murdering or trying to murder the other side.
And the response from the
English
@McCormickProf No, the other side murders millions of babies a year. They want to troon your kids and import the third world. It is flight 93.
English
I'll probably get clobbered for this, but here goes: Please, can everyone, right or left, MAGA or anti-MAGA, Republican or Democrat, stop catastrophizing and trying to get everyone on your side worked up into a rage? It's not Flight 93. We're not on the verge of fascism. We do not need to take desperate measures. Our fellow citizens with whom we disagree are not devils incarnate or personifications of evil. We need to argue with our political adversaries--passionately perhaps--but with respect for their humanity and dignity. We don't need to destroy them. That mustn't be our aim. We all say we believe in democracy. Good! But democracy is all about persuading, giving reasons, engaging one another as fellow citizens, despite our disagreements. Let's rebuild civic friendship. We can do this. (Thank you for your attention to this matter.)

I’m just an unfrozen caveman so this world confuses me. But how does it make sense that the 3 liberal justices eagerly upheld the much more egregious 48-4 California maps but dissented to upholding the Texas map?
@
NEW: The Supreme Court has summarily reversed the 3-judge trial court's decision striking down Texas' mid-decade congressional map (the court had previously stayed the decision). The three liberal justices dissent. #txlege
