This is your periodic reminder that Democrats introduced legislation in 2021 to ban gerrymandering nationwide and every republican voted against it except two who were absent.

Sen. Jack Reed to Warsh as he dodges questions about divesting his assets: "Excuse me. I must commend you on the way you can circularly go around questions and not answer them. It's a skill. Unfortunately it's not a good skill for the chairman of the Fed."
For the record, for anyone who’s forgotten, it’s sheer madness for a president to contradict himself nearly every day. It’s profoundly wrong that we can’t trust the veracity of a single thing that he says.
The Strait of Hormuz is still closed. The Iranian regime is still firing on ships. Trump has accomplished nothing.
Just FYI.
Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.
The FBI Director, the DC US Attorney, and the Secretary of Defense walk into a bar.
Apparently like every day.
It’s quite the coincidence that the Strait of Hormuz is open when the stock market is open and closed when it isn’t.
Trump called every reporter in the observable universe, who all dutifully repeated his updates about Iran, and all those updates have fallen apart in fewer than 36 hours.
How long will legacy media keep doing this?
That would be a good start.
Breaking: Iran has re-imposed restrictions on the Strait of Hormuz — accusing the U.S. of violating the deal to reopen it.
Iran says it will continue to block transit as long as the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports remains in effect.
You always have to pay attention to what is actually happening, not what Trump says is happening. Because Trump lies about everything. Too often media serves as Trump’s daily stenographer, passing along his propaganda verbatim.
The Straight of Hormuz is already closed again. Every announcement that it is open appears to be Market Manipulation and Insider Trading on the prediction markets. Everyone else is suffering and paying the price.

Headlines don't tell the whole story. A nice way to say "That was click bait".
I cannot stress this enough. Do NOT divorce the salt and pepper.
Some American Nonsense sums up so much right now.
Wow. Worse for those who know their WW2 history or their Pink Floyd "Waiting for the Worms" lyrics.
So it's the responsibility of TEENAGERS to maintain the replacement level? Oh, she means white people. Disgusting. No wonder young people (basically children) might be hesitant to have a baby with the world the way it is.
Treasury is holding thousands of Epstein‑related financial records — including overseas payments from Epstein routed through Russian banks
Treasury refuses to release them to Congress
Oh good Lord. This is awful.
It’s infuriating when a woman comes forward about a man raping her in his hotel room after drinking and the response is “Why would she go to his room?” “Why would she drink with him?” This is Mike Pence logic. Women should be allowed to hang out with men without expecting they will be raped.
New post from Pope Leo: "God's heart is torn apart by wars, violence, injustice and lies. But our Father's heart is not with the wicked, the arrogant, or the proud. God's heart is with the little ones and the humble."
The WH staged an event where Trump tipped $100 to a MAGA septuagenerian pretending to DoorDash so she could “save enough for her husband’s cancer treatments”.
They honestly thought it would be the feel good story everyone needed.
That’s how spectacularly tone deaf they are.
I seriously need something to look forward to today.
