when the people who shuttered USAID learn of a diabetic single mother and her disabled son starving to death 9,000 miles away because of aid cuts, they don't see failure or dereliction or tragedy, but rather success: the people they view as unworthy of life are dying

Listening to Utah GOP lawmakers scold us while claiming they avoided partisan data to draw new congressional maps is rich.
Somehow, we are to believe they were unaware of an effort FROM THEIR OWN PARTY to support the map that gave them the biggest electoral edge.
Guess which map they passed. 🤔

Finished my stream drawing maps and testing them against Brady Brammer's Bogus Bill. The first of these 3 maps, drawn without regard for partisan data, fails Brammer's tests. The following 2 maps, drawn to intentionally favor specific parties, pass them. VOD and map links below:

In a few hours, I'll be going live demonstrating the flaws in Brady Brammer's bill (SB1011) by drawing maps from scratch on the fly and testing them against his criteria. Should be a fun and educational experience, hope to see y'all there! www.youtube.com/watch?v=njic...

This bill's test passes the vast majority of gerrymanders (including the current one) and fails most fair maps. It is quite literally worse than having no test at all.

The second day of Utah’s court-ordered redistricting process saw plenty of fireworks, with Democrats and Republicans fighting over their dueling experts.
Meanwhile, Utahns like Stuart Hepworth have submitted dozens of other maps that they urged lawmakers to consider instead. #utpol

It's decision day for the redrawing of Utah's congressional maps.
Five maps have already been proposed by Utah's GOP majority.
Two more last-minute proposals could shake up the process ahead of today's vote.

The Free Speech President has now pulled two of the three major late night hosts off the air through threats and intimidation because of their jokes. Obviously I’m behind Jimmy Kimmel 100% in the face of this fascist garbage. Speech against this admin isn’t just being chilled, they’re freezing it.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.
This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Ezra Klein Accidentally Shows How the Media Brought Us Trump
The prominent liberal pundit made up a fake version of Charlie Kirk to praise, laundering his reputation the way a lot of mainstream media launders MAGA

Two months ago, the trees were full of leaves, and they were green. Now, many of them are yellow. Some have fallen off entirely. If you ask about this, you're told it's because of "autumn." No one had ever heard of "autumn" before this year. And you're not allowed to say this doesn't make sense.
