A clue just how stupid politics is and how the PTB think we're all too stupid to know it.

I was just coming to post this. Talk about weaving in and out of certain communities.

It’s insane we allow the lawmakers to redraw districts every 10 years.

But then a lot of how our government works is insane.

Always remember this policy was supported by Reagan and the GOP in order to cram all the black votes into one district.

It was nice to see black politicians and the GOP united on at least one issue

You are. That district is direct result of the legal requirement for minority majority districts that keep shiela Jackson lees in congress.

The frick I Am. This type of shite benefits both parties. The day one of them steps up and tackles gerrymandering (or term limits) is the day I'll pay off the bet by licking SJL's dirty spot.

California has an independent commission redraw their districts. Pretty sure Michigan voters voted to do the same recently. I want to say one or two other states do the same, but not sure.

Isn't it beautiful? Responsible for literally one of the most ignorant idiots to have a voice in DC.
