Gerrymandering has become the foundation of republican politics… rigging elections before any votes are cast. Controlling the state courts is an essential element of this game. This is about holding the court through 2030. The next redistricting.

We do live in a time of monsters. Global warming, AI, and rising authoritarianism. These are things we ourselves have created. And behind each of them are wealthy, powerful men being driven by greed and a lust for unchecked power.

His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.
