Newsom’s calling the shots...and California’s proving what real reform looks like. Redistricting done right...by the people...for the people. No more gerrymandered traps. He’s lighting the blueprint for state-level democracy fights nationwide

My biggest complaint about the Dems is they are thumbing through their Marquis of Queensbury rulebook, complaining "it's not fair," as the GOP Nazi party is curb stomping their teeth out street fighting. I'm glad Newsom is fighting back the same way. The whole DNC needs to do the same.

Ca, Maryland and Illinois will definitely redistrict the voting map for the midterms. NY can’t do it until 2028. There are several other “red” and “ blue” states that are contemplating it but their state laws are hindering progress.

It’s too late now, but blue states should have been pushing to get more house reps for decades now. It’s statistically fair, and the fact that blue states are underrepresented federally has only served red states. Red states, while being way over represented, still felt like they “had no voice.”

The administration knows. It’s the regular people and MAGA who do not. It’s why they claim everyone there are “crazy liberals,” so they have an excuse to strong arm them, and try to change leadership. Blue states though, are the ones who could survive a “federalism” type split, and they may do so.

Unless the US get 2/3rds to 3/4ths of the states to amend the constitution to allow a split. There are a lot of red states that claim they “want” a national divorce, so maybe it could work, but the administration would be adamant about keeping them. It’s all about money for him after all.

And Chappaquiddick…. It’s about being rich, not what party you belong to. The war is a class/race (b/c these are attached at the hip in the US). The red/blue fight serves the rich, not us.

An idea: Collectively boycott (or minimal spending) holiday shopping. 4th Qtr spending provides a basis for how the country is doing. If you're celebrating, then purchase what you can now and minimize your gift giving/ celebrations. Celebrate holidays after 1/1/26. Have Christmas on 1/6/26.
