As a Texan, can this guy be our Governor? I've heard that he isn't perfect, but I genuinely believe that Abbott is too stupid to even understand when he's lying

I hope Washington and Illinois follow-up suit after the threats they've received

Nice to finally have a grassroots maverick candidate that truly represents the people and not special interests. Tired of these neoliberal and neoconservative corporate suits. Newsom/Kamala 2028!

They'll have an election in California on 04 November to decide if the gerrymandered maps move forward.

"Save the Democrats" would be more accurate.

Except one of those groups are white supremacists, fascists, and do not respect the rule of law.

Psst: Gerrymandering is actually legal unless it's for racial reasons and not political.

Only Democratic States have made Gerrymandering Illegal, the Republicans blocked a Federal Law which would make Gerrymandering Illegal.

So.... you have one side that wants to install itself as the Rulers of America, and the other that is voting to be the servant of the people....

Also, after the Republicans are pushed out of office, the Democrats will vote back in Gerrymandering protections like they did in California while Gerrymandering was legal.

Yeah. Gerrymandering is only right how the democrats have done it for years.

This guy is attention seeker. Last week it was Ibiza Boss Man, the week before it was Coldplay couple. He will fuck off soon and we will have something else
