AOC said it best when she said, “Wah wah wah.” I can’t help but see children every time I see Republican white men whining about injustice.

This is going to result in Democrats winning 10 of Virginia's 11 House districts. Reminder: Virginia is purple state. That's completely ridiculous. Why don't you just ban Republicans from voting altogether?

Politicians gaming the rules to nullify the votes of people they don't like is some shady fkcng business, and this genie does not go back in the bottle. When Republicans come back into power, as they inevitably will, I'm surely they do the same thing to Democrats, but worse. It's never just tit for tat.

Gerrymandering is stupid. It disenfranchises voters. It makes Congress *completely* dysfunctional. And it sets off an endless cycle of retribution between the parties. All if this is especially dumb because Democrats are going to win the House and Senate, anyway, even without this.

The people who support this are effectively voting to disenfranchise people they don't agree with. When democracy in America ends, you can say you did your small part.

What do you think would have been an appropriate response to Texas’ efforts to pass laws that VA must abide by, having supressed its voters?

DP. Something that follows the law would have been a good start. The VA Dems tried to cheat to try do their cheating. You can’t make this stuff up.

This followed the law.

Giving 10 out of 11 House seats to Democrats in an evenly divided state could hardly be more ridiculous.

There’s nothing in the law that says they can’t. Ask SCOTUS.

I agree it’s unfair. So I support the national band on political gerrymandering. Do you?

NP and yes.

Great! Call your republican member of congress (while they still have a job) because they’re the ones blocking it.

No, they're not. You know nothing about politics. A bill like this would never pass Congress regardless of which party is in charge.

Then call the D’s bluff.

Let’s see full R support and see what happens.

Virginia's sacrifice to help pay for the sins in Texas and other places. The country thanks you Virginia!

A bill just like that passed the House a few years ago but the Senate Republicans wouldn’t vote for it. Because Republicans are the problem here.

You should really try to learn the basics of politics and how Congress works before spouting off.

This bill passed the House five years ago, when Democrats controlled the entire government. They could have passed it into law, because they controlled the Senate and the White House, but they didn't because they didn't care all that much about it. It was a messaging bill. They had other things they actually cared about.

Second, the bill doesn't actually exist anymore, because all bills automatically die after two years. After two years, you have to start the whole process all over again. There is no bill just waiting for the Senate to be passed. Most of the bill who wrote that bill aren't even in Congress anymore. Many have since died or retired.

If Democrats who are currently in Congress wanted to do this, they could. They could write their own bill and try to rally support for it, and demand a vote. They haven't done any of that, because they don't care about this issue.

Don’t lecture me about knowing about the government when you won’t acknowledge the filibuster in the Senate. Republicans are in control of every branch of government right now and they’re having a hissyfit about a state deciding to implement partisan gerrymandering which their Supreme Court has been totally fine with. They could reintroduce and pass this bill, or just the portion of this bill that bans partisan gerrymandering, anytime they like. And the filibuster wouldn’t be a problem because all Democrats would support that.

How TF are the Democrats who are in the minority in both houses of Congress right now supposed to get any anti-gerrymandering legislation passed when the Republicans are the ones who won’t vote for it? You can’t “demand a vote” to even get something onto the House floor, this feckless Speaker won’t allow anything Trump doesn’t like so the only thing happening is via discharge petitions.

Dems have been working on this issue for years, reworking it many times.

Given the MAGA attacks on basic voting rights, the Dems have had bigger issues to fry and they have been pushing the SAVE Act and John Lewis Voting Rights Act.

But they do have a bill to address gerrymandering currently in the works:

Giving 10 out of 11 House seats to Democrats in an evenly divided state could hardly be more ridiculous.

There’s nothing in the law that says they can’t. Ask SCOTUS.

I agree it’s unfair. So I support the national band on political gerrymandering. Do you?

NP and yes.

Great! Call your republican member of congress (while they still have a job) because they’re the ones blocking it.

No, they're not. You know nothing about politics. A bill like this would never pass Congress regardless of which party is in charge.

Then call the D’s bluff.

Let’s see full R support and see what happens.

There is no bluff. You're just an idiot. Democrats will never support this. Neither will Republicans. No one in Congress is even seriously considering this.

Stop calling people idiots.

You should really try to learn the basics of politics and how Congress works before spouting off.

This bill passed the House five years ago, when Democrats controlled the entire government. They could have passed it into law, because they controlled the Senate and the White House, but they didn't because they didn't care all that much about it. It was a messaging bill. They had other things they actually cared about.

Second, the bill doesn't actually exist anymore, because all bills automatically die after two years. After two years, you have to start the whole process all over again. There is no bill just waiting for the Senate to be passed. Most of the bill who wrote that bill aren't even in Congress anymore. Many have since died or retired.

If Democrats who are currently in Congress wanted to do this, they could. They could write their own bill and try to rally support for it, and demand a vote. They haven't done any of that, because they don't care about this issue.
