Missouri's Republican Gov. Mike Kehoe announced on Friday that he was calling for a special legislative session that will include redrawing the state's congressional map — setting the stage for mid-decade redistricting in the state after Texas just finished doing the same. https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/mis...aw-congressional-districts/story?id=125109160

In 2022, infighting erupted among Republicans in Missouri over whether to pursue a 7-1 Republican-dominated map, which would require splintering Kansas City voters into neighboring rural districts. The legislature ultimately pushed forward the existing 6-2 map, amid concerns that the change could backfire and make several GOP-held districts more competitive.

This I would love to see. The states redrawing districts cut their margins too thin and it comes back to haunt them.

Well in a perfect world I would prefer every state have an independent commission whose purpose is to maximize the number of swing districts. That would force more candidates of either party to campaign and legislate from the center and limit the number of extremists in congress but as long as power is more important than governance that isn't going to happen. And if it doesn't happen I hope voters in Texas and Missouri and wherever else teach their governors a lesson and when it gets to California Newsom is thinking he was better off trusting the system as seats that would have given dems the house are tighter than they are comfortable with. It needs to be a democratic house to stop Trump but everyone needs to learn a lesson here.
 
No. If you want America to do better, drop tariffs to zero. New manufacturing concerns wanting to start up need it So much of what they need needs to be imported. However, the uncertainty over whether Trump tariffs are really going to go up or not have likely been doing more harm to the future of the U. S. economy.

In the case of tea and coffee, what sense does it make to have tariffs up to 50% on them when so little of that is commercially grown in the U. S.? Once again, where is Starbucks, Dutch Bros. and HTeaO on this?

So, woke up this morning to find my X feed filled with "Trump's dead" rumors... That's an interesting way to start the weekend.

Probably not the smartest move.

1. You don't disrespect the military. Whatever is happening in DC and other cities isn't on them.

2. Id bet the average National Guardsman would really prefer to be home with their families right now. I think the government is doing 28 day deployments to keep from giving them more pay (not sure on this) so there is that as well.

3. That's extremely unprofessional of a federal worker.

Ahh that liberal bastion of Alabama

Republican Rep. Barry Moore was heckled so badly at his Alabama town hall that he literally left out the back door in the middle of the event.

Moore didn't offer concluding remarks or even bid good night to the rowdy crowd as they chanted "Shame!" during his exit.
