Trump, Vance, and MAGA are having a very bad week, just like last week!
Which is why they are relying on all the theater. Too many Dems are focused it on it too, so I hope reporting the losses will show everyone how they're not in a good position despite all the swagger. Please keep adding to this mega thread, and spin off any larger discussion so we can better see the volume. Any posts that mention Biden, Obama, or Dems will be reported. If you'd like to start a thread about Biden's losses for the week, please go right ahead. |

| This thread is a great idea. But damn, it’s depressing to read that list because it also shows how much damage has already and will continue to be done, since it mostly hurts regular folks. |

August 14 Governor Newsom alongside state and legislative leaders and advocates representing CA, introduces a state constitutional amendment to enable California voters the opportunity to fight back against Trump’s attempted power grab in Texas.
The Election Rigging Response Act — will go before California voters this November. The key provisions are: 1. Retains California’s Citizens Redistricting Commission and declares state policy supporting the use of fair, nonpartisan redistricting commissions nationwide. 2. Temporarily adopts new California congressional districts for use in congressional elections through 2030. 3. Preserves California’s current congressional maps only if Texas or other states also keep their original maps. Early adopter senators are rallying with CA: AZ Senator Ruben Gallego: “It’s time for Democrats to understand the existential threat.” MI Senator Elissa Slotkin: “I’m not going to fight with one arm tied behind my back” NY Governor Kathy Hochul: “All’s fair in love and war. We are following the rules. We do redistricting every 10 years, but if there are other states that are violating the rules and trying to give themselves an advantage, all I say is I’ll look at it closely with Hakeem Jeffries.” IL Governor JB Pritzker: “We all ought to stand up against it” NJ Governor Phil Murphy: “If that’s the way we’re going, we’re from Jersey, baby, and we won’t be laying down.” MD House Majority Leader: “I’m introducing legislation to redraw Maryland congressional districts if any other state cheats & draws new maps outside of the census period. |
