Are you thinking of AOC or Boebert. How about mean Greene from Georgia. Shes a real peach of a domass. AOC is off the charts as IMO she NEVER took an exam at Boston University. She was gifted the degree. Then we have Miss Smirk from Minnesota, I can see her shoving a knife in our backs as she has that gleam on her face. Sorta like Mr. Kibble N Bits late night talk show host.

While it is true that if someone thinks they can gain something by being racist, they will do that. It is also true that highly educated doesn't mean intelligent.
Getting an education in one field does not mean they know anything or are capable of learning in other fields of study.
I know too much and question everything.
Does anyone know the minimum safe distance of ignorance?
Did anyone ask the monkeys how much fun the barrel actually was?

Greene you are mentioning? I am in what was her district. She turned into a disappointing disaster.
The others I know from the news. And loud describes them quite well.

His reply was, if she wanted more money, she needed to marry a man that made more money.
When you live in a rural area, finding another job may not be an option, and when an employer has an advantage, it would be bad business not to make use of it.
Especially when dealing with stupid women.
My hundred other posts weren't oversimplified though. Also, rural living is a personal choice and I do not know many big businesses that are rural. We are talking about hundred million people right? Those arent rural population numbers

Yes, I used to live in Newnan, Georgia. Wassup with her cheap dresses. She keeps ranting about Rape and Child Trafficking. I have a live Case for her about Child Trafficking. So if I give her the evidence what will she do? Bail?
I now live in a disctrict with Nacy Mace. Another "outlyer" ? I wrote to her district inbox several times on sharing my UFO footage over Savannah River Nuclear Reservation. NO INTEREST, NADA. She also as Chair of the UAP siuation, plagurized material as submitted by Jeremy Corbell and exposed his witnesses.
I now think that both are DEEP STATE

Sounds like the majority of people in politics...
"Yet so it is, we see the illiterate bulk of mankind that walk the high-road of plain common sense, and are governed by the dictates of nature, for the most part easy and undisturbed. To them nothing that is familiar appears unaccountable or difficult to comprehend."

I have no idea who said it but I remember reading that politics was invented to give people that can't do anything a job. I think that applies to 90% or more of them.

A republic is a representative government ruled by law (a constitution), while a democracy is a government ruled by the majority. In a republic, citizens elect representatives to make decisions, whereas a pure democracy involves citizens voting on all laws directly. The U.S. is a constitutional representative democracy.
Democrats are mudding the water as they obviously DONT SUPPORT THE CONSTITUTION and the SPIN is that USA is a DEMOCRACY. NO WERE NOT and whats up with the foul language.?
Well fuck screw me all to hell for the semantic difference.
I mean, it's not like the words really mean anything globally.
"Democratic People's Republic of Korea?"
Only one of those words is right when they use it.
They kinda just seem like interchangeable government words.
But I am sorry anyway, The USA is a "constitutional representative democracy republic" whatever...
.... that currently features (what I think is) an underhanded nationalist WASPy agenda to gaslight the general public into thinking attacking minority representation is called an equal meritocracy and ending racism.
So I guess in OUR republic is the one that allows itself to undermine an entire demographic's ability to choose THEIR own congressional reps at a more local level.
And what's next up in government class?

Tennessee has what 9 districts of 770,000 people each? And 25% of the state is democrat voting.
I think "fair" would be two blue districts around Memphis and Nashville. But they get one in Memphis, which will soon be reduced to zero.
So the question is, Do you think its fair representation for democrats (regardless of race) to have little to no state representation through gerrymandering?
And can you see how the focus to go after democrat districts on racial equality grounds is disenfranchising black voters even if its just done because their districts are democrat?
Because I dont even think it's fair that Republicans have only 5 of 54 CA districts. Thats disgusting actually.
Republicans should have Orange County, half of SD county, IE, rural everywhere, Central Valley and the high desert. At least 13 million need to be represented.
They are 13 districts short now.
And I think this needs to create the dialog that creates a law that keeps districts in line with how people in more local areas actually vote. No more wild lines. You keep Orange County's rep in orange county and draw it by more local majorities and deal with 3 GOP reps in the LA area.
Thats my grand solution. And then will be no more ground for "targeted disenfranchised black voters" to land on.
It would still balance out if all sides agreed to stop this feedback loop bullshit. Tennessee is just slightly over 18% Democrat.
In Massachusetts, where only 24% of voters are registered Democrats, every district is held by a Democrat Congressman.
You mean to say that for voting to be "fair" one must consider the party of the voter, not the eligibility?
No redistricting takes anyone's vote away. There's nothing at all "unfair" about partisan districting.
I've already pointed out that partisan districting began with the very first Congress. It has continued since then, with the (former) interpretation of the Voting Rights Act making it MUCH worse.

Party registration makes it hard on independents, Americas largest affiliation.
I based Tennessee on the 34% Harris recieved in the popular vote, along with total registered and other results and came to 1/4 democrat being fair. 2 districts being fair.
Likewise with California, the 1/3 was an average of total registration and Trump getting over 40% of the popular vote.
Not exacting.
Its more pie in the sky, admittedly, but its not fair for Tennessee to eliminate ALL blue districts anymore than it is for California to whittle it down to 5 red districts.
Its bullshit to see meandering jigsaw districts working their way across the state. Not local representation anymore.
Memphis is now barely represented and at the mercy of 3 republican districts like the conservative Central Valley in CA is at the mercy of Coastal Pelosistan.
Memphis deserves a local rep that reflects the city like central farmers need a rep not also covering somewhere liberal and non-agricultural.
Its not good either way. Fuck it all, no matter how time honored it is.
