Virginians voted Tuesday to redraw their state’s congressional map, approving a ballot measure to give Democrats as many as four additional seats. Republicans are flipping their lids.
Fox News commentator Laura Ingraham called the result a “Total travesty!!” on X, while MAGA pundit Juanita Broaddrick said, “No fucking way this is legit.” Right-wing troll Phillip Buchanan, known as Catturd on X, said, “What a fcking joke.”
Republican politicians also went into hysterics, with House Speaker Mike Johnson accusing Democrats of showing “how far they will go to break the law, ‘wage warfare,’ and disenfranchise millions of voters in order to force their unwanted, radical agenda down the throats of every American.”
These fuckers started this shit with Texas. Dems simply said “play ball”. Repubs then got distracted playing with their own.
They’re not used to the Dems actually fighting the same fight. They’re used to the Dems talking but still rolling over and trying to justify it as taking the high road.
If not for hypocrisy, the GOP would have no platform at all.
thats why they are so welcoming to sex perverts, and deviants and scam/fraudsters. they need to shore up thier numbers some how. cant do it on message alone.
I was at a dinner and sat near a guy who didn’t know what this election was about.
Me: The amendment allows Virginia to redraw maps to counter-act the maps that Republicans are drawing in other states
Guy: gerrymandering is already bad. Why should we make people in Virginia suffer for what’s happening elsewhere?
Me: because gerrymandering is what’s making Republicans stay in power.
Guy: what’s wrong with that?
Me: because they are being assholes
Guy: but they were voted in.
Me: but after gerrymandering illegally I might add. Democratic states are trying to level the playing field.
Guy: just because Democrats do it legally doesn’t make it any less wrong.
The exchange told me everything I needed to know about the guy.
Typical embarrassed conservative. They know just enough to know not to admit they support Republicans in public.
It’s well past time to see the hysterics of GQP when the Dems go on the offensive instead of only reacting after the Republicans pull this shit.
Who am I kidding? Never gonna happen.
We need to make sure these foreign assets get relieved of duty, and tried for treason
The time for that was Jan 6, it’s a bit harder with the culprits in charge
The next best time is ASAP
I’ve been talking about this for the last six months.
Republicans did not abandon their gerrymandering push out of ethics. They realized that they’d fucked up to such an extent that their 2024 coalition no longer exists, and they can’t accurately project where they will have strength in 2026. Therefore, the gerrymandering they have done has largely worked against them.
That’ll happen when you’re elected on affordability and don’t do jack shit to fix the cost of living.
