Gerrymandering has gotta be one of the most underreported evils of our time. When one party can redraw districts to ensure they remain in power the citizens have already lost.

I find it ironic the majority of states that have embraced the independent redistricting commissions that ensure gerrymandering is free from bias also happen to be Democratic controlled states.

Re: Fresh Start Political Thread
 

Definitely would grab some crabs too G-1!

CRed-It has always bothered me how bad the district lines look in Maryland. Why does a large county like PG have only two reps but Baltimore City with 300,000 less people have three? Carroll county has two but comparable in size Harford county only has one. Of course the county that holds the state capital has four congressional reps have to make sure they are overrepresented in congress. It is pretty frusterating.

Re: Fresh Start Political Thread
 

Balt City may have lost a rep and one of their reps is a hybrid city/balt county area .... i think this is right, didnt look it up

35 States have gerrymandering .. 2 are democrat.

Just a matter of time .. democrat numbers just increase, republicans flat line and are older and becoming more and more localized.

Re: Fresh Start Political Thread
 

All three of their reps are split amongst neighboring counties but that means a city of under 600,000 has three people advocating for federal funds. To me it just doesn't make sense.

The job report today was a fucking embarrassment. The so called recovery act didn’t do a god damn thing except give lazy mutherfuckers more of an excuse not to work with all their bullshit handouts and welfare. They also revised the previous month from 900k to 760k.

The 2 big obvious issues :

1.the extra 300 unemployment which incentivized people to not work. Fact 7.3 million jobs available NOW. in feb 2020 pre pandemic economy there was 7.1 mil available….lack of jobs aren’t the problem. Black unemployment went up again today, woman not working went up again. Zero construction jobs add.

2. As of the 3rd week in April, only 60% of schools in the 200 largest school districts are open, so the cost of childcare to watch kids on virtual learning is a major hurdle. You have to be a fucking retard of the highest caliber to still think covid is an issue in the classroom. Nyc private schools covid Test this past week of 8700 kids, 1 tested positive. There have been no substantial covid outbreaks linked to school. It’s an embarrassment now.

Biden tax and spend policy is socialist horseshit. All he wants to do is keep people broke and desperate like they always do…keep people dependent on the government for handouts, just enough to keep their vote. If you can’t see it across the major big cities they run then you are simply a fucking fool

Important political alert:

Removing Tucker from the "record all new episodes list". Replaced by Gutfeld! Note - I don't watch every night, but I recorded them to watch if I felt like.

Not because I now dislike Tucker. But his show now feels like an advertisement for "Tucker Today", or whatever the paid show is called (not paying for "political news"), I like Gutfeld, and Kat Timpf is my TV crush.
