As @davidpepperoh.bsky.social has written, this also means that there are politicians who face no competition, feel no need to be interested in voters and can be as corrupt and/or extreme as they like
Competition in 2024 House races was scarce, with only 37 districts decided by 5 or fewer percentage points. For the most part, it’s because of gerrymandering.

President Biden is expected to permanently ban new oil and gas drilling in large sections of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, as well as other federal waters. The move relies on a 70-year-old law that could make it difficult for the Trump administration to reverse it.

This is amazing. In September 2022, USAID published this "Dekleptification guide: Seizing windows of opportunity to dismantle kleptocracy." I like to think that my taxpayer dollars helped fund this, and I'm putting it on my holiday reading list!

Sounds like we can wait on the court system to decide whether or not to extend this or we can introduce something in Congress. Surely someone has an outline of a system that could be implemented? #immigration
A court-ordered system for protecting the health of children detained at the southern U.S. border, put in place two years ago after several children died in custody, is set to expire nine days after Donald Trump takes office with plans to intensify the deportation of migrants.
Health Protections for Migrant Children in Custody Are Set to Expire
A 2022 legal settlement established requirements to protect the health of minors detained at segments of the southern border. It ends nine days after Donald Trump takes office.
