do you typically sexualize your narrative when speaking to other men? other posters do this too
lol part of a vagina
If you were a billionaire and wanted to make sure that idiots out in murica would continue to vote for the rich instead of for their own interests...
you would also gaslight them into fearing others sex parts and sex lives and skin color and "otherness" ...
this way you could continue to screw them while they went to war against - others for no real reason...
this way their attention would be focused on others instead of the pockets you picked clean.
Indiana reverses itself, revives partisan redistricting
We'll see... I think drawing out the Indianapolis district was too much. The Gary district was easy pickings though and should have been drawn-out in 2021.
wow
Indiana Republicans vote down the partisan redistricting bill
Guess they're leary about being seen to knuckle under to a very unpopular president
More Republicans voted against it than for it
backfired
Trump rigged his own census against himself?
In this case, I think Trump got too far over his skis by threatening to pull all federal funding for Indiana
Extorting proud midwestern Republicans like they were Democrats might have been ill-considered
https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/11/polit...-redistrictingJean Leising spoke at a breakfast this fall at her 8th grade grandson’s school. Hours later, when she was set to give him a ride home from basketball practice, he bashfully told her that his entire team had received text messages about her that day — “and they were all bad.”
Recounting the moment to CNN shortly after she joined 20 other Republican state senators in rejecting President Donald Trump’s redistricting push, Leising said she laughed the moment off with her grandson — but that it ultimately led to her opposing the president.
“Boy, when I got home that night, that’s when I decided,” said Leising, a 76-year-old grandmother of eight, first elected to the Senate in 1988. “I was angry. So the next day, I said, ‘I’ve got to talk about this.’ Because this is over the top. This shouldn’t be the way it was.”
“But that was the beginning,” she added. “It only got worse from there.”
Sen. Mike Bohacek has a daughter with Down syndrome. He was offended by Trump’s use of a slur for people with disabilities, in a Truth Social post deriding Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, and said that Trump’s “choices of words have consequences.”
Sen. Greg Walker, who represents former Vice President Mike Pence’s hometown of Columbus, said he was among the senators targeted by swatting attempts in the weeks leading up to Thursday’s vote. While law enforcement has not publicly linked the swatting or other threats to a political motive, Walker said he felt voting yes would reward wrongdoing and set a dangerous precedent.
Sen. Greg Goode, whose town hall in Terre Haute this fall revealed massive public opposition to mid-decade redistricting, said the new maps would splinter communities with similar interests. He also criticized “over-the-top pressure from inside the Statehouse and outside,” as well as “threats of violence, acts of violence.”
“Whether we realize it or not, whether we accept it or not, the forces that define this vitriolic political affairs in places outside of Indiana have been gradually and now very blatantly infiltrated the political affairs in Indiana,” he said in a speech before the vote.
Sen. Sue Glick, a Republican who took office in 2010, echoed Leising’s comments, citing the violent threats many senators faced.
“Hoosiers are a hardy lot, and they don’t like to be threatened. They don’t like to be intimidated. They don’t like to be bullied in any fashion. And I think a lot of them responded with, ‘That isn’t going to work,’” Glick said. “And it didn’t.”
Indiana Republicans might also have taken into account that if they do the partisan redistricting, at least two bad things could happen
1. If the redistricting is completely successful and Republicans win all the districts, Indiana could be left without any majority representation in the upcoming 120th Congress
2. The redistricting could set the table for a dummymander, resulting in the loss of more than two congressional seats in the midterms
the right-wing stochastic violence machine is largely directed by Trump
lol indiana....
they brag about not being threatened -
hey - here in texas - we have cancun crooze and he would never accept being threatened nor insulted by trump....no oh nvm...
dumb Texas Republicans doing Trump's bidding on redistricting may end up losing seats to Dems
it's not 2024 anymore, Trump's ethnic cleansing is very unpopular with hispanics
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/u...stricting.htmlWhen Texas Republicans redrew the state’s congressional map over the summer, they aimed to flip five districts held by Democrats and were guided by the 2024 presidential election results, which showed voters moving to the right.
…
With Hispanic voters showing signs of souring on President Trump in special elections this year and concerns mounting over the cost of living, Democrats believe they could hold on to as many as three of the redrawn seats in Texas, two in the Rio Grande Valley and possibly a third centered in and around San Antonio. The party is also looking at flipping a Republican seat in the Valley, little changed in its partisan makeup by the new map, where a popular Tejano music star is running as a moderate Democrat.
fine when Texas does it, though
Trump created the permission structure for a fight Republicans may very well lose
Virginia redistricting passes
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...idt-rcna340895Virginia voters on Tuesday approved a Democratic redistricting plan that could allow the party to pick up as many as four new seats in the midterm elections, NBC News projects.
Better get used to Air Bud dunking on your fascist Republican asses, he's just getting warmed up
also, the California redistricting was contingent on Texas going first
FAFO
So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference...
so far
Across the 7 states with new maps:
—11 districts have shifted toward Democrats;
—9 districts have shifted toward the GOP.
Republicans, furious at Democrats for doing thing they wanted to do but couldn’t do, now insist thing they wanted to do is un-American
sore loser Republicans
the retrocession of Alexandria and Arlington was in 1846
Unlike Texas, VA maps approved by voters
Unlike Texas, VA maps temporary
Unlike Texas, VA maps only drawn in response to other states
Unlike Texas, VA maps not racial gerrymander
