Democrats can retaliate against these GOP gerrymanders with new maps in Illinois, Maryland, Oregon, & Virginia.

They could flip 7 GOP seats to make up for this & new GOP maps in Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, & possibly soon Indiana.

Imposing costs is the only way to deter the GOP from doing this

California and Blue States, you know what to do.

The Supreme Court allows Trump and Texas to gerrymandering and steal the 2026 election?

OK. Game on.

A new poll shows that a majority of Americans disapprove of Trump's statements accusing Democratic lawmakers of “sedition,” and in fact a majority actually approve of those lawmakers' statement that soldiers have a legal right to disobey orders issued by Trump if they feel those orders are illegal.
Poll: More Approve of Dems’ Message to Military Members to Disobey Illegal Orders Than Trump’s “Sedition” Attacks
“Our laws are clear: You can refuse illegal orders,” a group of Democrats said in a video message in November.

This is not a legitimate Supreme Court. This is a court that wants to lock in white-supremacist, right-wing rule.

Simply amazing that the Supreme Court declared an end to legal race discrimination in the affirmative action case two years ago and now allows overt racism in both immigration arrests and redistricting.

Using race to help minorities? Bad. Using it to discriminate against them? Very, very good.

As Justice Kagan begins her dissent by pointing out, what is even the point of trial, of fact-finding, of clear error, of standards of review, when the Supreme Court simply ignores every single part of that and decides everything purely on the papers without any real consideration of the facts?

Their drug mission? To where? With what? When did allegedly smuggling drugs from one foreign country to another begin to carry with it the death penalty from the US? When did the military’s mission become imposing that illegal penalty?

The Supreme Court majority has decided that they are the fact-finders, and the facts are what they want them to be, and quite frankly if District Courts disagree, they can pound sand because they're not the ones in charge.

They're right about the last part. But the damage they're doing is longterm.

Pastor Black: While I was in the middle of using the words of Jesus, they opened fire on me. It was so clear that they had been so poorly trained, or — the alternative — that they had been deliberately told to escalate violence against peaceful protesters.

I don't think the Justices understand the extent to which they are playing with fire. The more they do this, the more District Courts will engage in open disrespect of the Supreme Court, because what other response is there to open disrespect directed at them? That's bad for the Judiciary, period.

Carrying the water for billionaires should be disqualifying for Dem candidates whose attention should be directed at the rest of the population of the US and not 1100 people with vastly more wealth than they could ever spend. Sorry, Gavin, that’s old think pandering to donors.
Gov. @gavinnewsom says he disagrees with Mayor @zohrankmamdani about the need for a wealth tax on billionaires, which he is “adamantly against” - says Dems are a “big tent party” with both views.
