The Yes on 50 campaign says "gerrymandering is bad, so vote for more gerrymandering." No on 50 says, "gerrymandering is bad, so vote against gerrymandering." One of these positions is more logical than the other.

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in American history. Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in Texas history. Now the two of them are teaming up with a corrupt, illegal gerrymandering scheme.

Instead of trying to earn more votes, Republican officials across the South are executing a systematic effort to dismantle Black political representation in Congress through gerrymandering. It's time for broad reforms to end this kind of gerrymandering for good.

“A HYPER-PARTISAN GERRYMANDERING BOONDOGGLE” Speaker Mike Johnson not holding back on Democrats’ extreme redistricting move in Virginia that could FLIP control of the House after this year’s midterm elections. Johnson says he is CONFIDENT that the state’s Supreme Court will strike down the new map before the balance of power changes.

Bill Maher: “If only the Republicans get to gerrymander, the Democrats will never take back the House.” Arnold Schwarzenegger: “No, no, gerrymandering has been going on for 200 years.” Bill Maher: “Not on this level.” Arnold Schwarzenegger: *Isn’t buying it* “Look, there are states out there that have 40% of Republicans and only have like 20% representation in Congress… There is gerrymandering going on all over.” Blue states in the Northeast have almost completely WIPED out Republican representation in Congress. What Bill does not understand is that Democrats are almost completely MAXED out when it comes to gerrymandering, unlike the Republicans.

The only reason Newsom can ram his redistricting scheme through the California legislature is that Democrats have a two thirds ‘supermajority.’ But that is also the result of Democrat gerrymandering. There is nothing democratic or legitimate about any of this.

CNN’s Scott Jennings on California launching a new gerrymandering push: “Let me summarize Gavin Newsom's speech today: Gerrymandering is evil. Please vote for my gerrymandering. Of course, he failed to mention that it's already gerrymandered. Republicans get 40% of the vote in California. They have 17% of the congressional seats under a supposed independent redistricting commission, so we're going to further gerrymander the gerrymandering that caused Texas to act in the first place!...Wanna keep on going? How about Illinois where you live?”

Here is United States Rep. Tim Burchett dropping the mother of all bombs: Biden White House staffers were taking massive payouts in exchange for over 8,000 pardons, as the vegetable was decapitated. “Someone got rich off of that.” In other words: bribes. Now, arrest them—arrest every single one of them—for the crimes: • 18 U.S. Code § 1519 – Destruction, alteration, or falsification of records • 18 U.S. Code § 1512 – Tampering with witnesses • 18 U.S. Code § 1503 – Obstruction of Justice • 18 U.S. Code § 201(b) – Bribery and • 18 U.S. Code § 371 - Conspiracy to defraud the United States government 📝 In July 2021, Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy selected the five Republican members to serve on the January 6 Select Committee. Nancy Pelosi, the treacherous Witch of the House then blocked minority representation from the Select Committee for the first time in the history of the U.S. House of Representatives.

🚨 BOOM! Sen. Mike Lee just pummeled Temu Obama Hakeem Jeffries and Congressional Democrats for RAGING about the end of racial gerrymandering "Democrats are melting down because the Supreme Court confirmed that racial gerrymandering has no place in America!" "Of all the bases on which government can treat people differently, race is a particularly nasty one. It's fraught with all kinds of historical peril. We settled this after the Civil War and said, we're NOT going to do this!" The party of slavery never changed.

Yesterday I stood proudly with my fellow U.S. House Republicans from Virginia, and with members of the Virginia General Assembly in the State Capitol. We ALL agree that what the democrats in Richmond are trying to do is WRONG. We will not sit idle as they undermine the constitution of our great Commonwealth. Gerrymandering is wrong and Virginia deserves better.

End gerrymandering nationwide. Require voter ID nationwide. That is the simple formula for restoring trust in the democratic process that has broad support with Americans of all political leanings.

Missouri State Rep. Marla Smith (D-St. Louis) finds out that Rep. Dirk Deaton (R-Seneca), sponsor of the GOP's illegal gerrymandering bill, did not get one person of color to sign off on the bill. "My ancestors marched, died, struggled so that they would have representation not only in this House, but in the US Congress. And when you create a map that disenfranchises them, you eliminate their voice."

Why are national Democrat groups spending $20 million to gerrymander Virginia’s congressional districts? The answer is very clear: in 2021, two-thirds of Virginians voted to end partisan gerrymandering. Now they’re trying to go against the will of the voters to undo that decision.
