TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there.
Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

Interesting thread on Epstein Evidence...
The FBI and the DOJ are redacting the Jeffrey Epstein evidence, primarily to protect victim privacy and avoid compromising ongoing investigations. However, the law PROHIBITS redactions solely to prevent embarrassment or reputational harm to public figures.
