But Orange Julius just keeps on slipping past the hand cuffs. I guess he's a criminal mastermind, because he sure has made our justice system look like *#$)L@#.

Nearly fell out of my chair when they said Holder "changed his mind and now supports indictment"... I missed when he said he was opposed, or why the hell he would have been opposed.

MF45 needs locked up right now, along with his criminal spawn.

I heard near the end of his segment when it was rebroadcast on the radio here last night and was like, "Hey? I recognize that voice... That sounds like Eric Holder!" And it was.



His book is coming out tomorrow - https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/705040/our-unfinished-march-by-eric-holder-with-sam-koppelman/

I will say that thanks to his NDRC (National Democratic Redistrict Committee), their affiliated NRAF (National Redistricting Action Fund) partnered with Marc Elias and Marc's Democracy Docket to win selection of their map as the final one for the Congressional districts here in PA.

The district lines that were created before the 2020 census in 2018, had actually been drawn and imposed by the majority-(D) state Supreme Court to remove the extreme gerrymandering that the GOP loons had put in place in 2011 after the 2010 census, and those new districts meant Democrats gained 4 Congressional seats in 2018. They went through a myriad of state and federal suits in 2018 including to the SCOTUS who refused to hear the appeal, so the new districts remained in place an PA sent 4 new (D)s to Congress.

That same map, minus 1 seat (due to the loss of one after the 2020 census), will now (at least at the moment) remain in place generally unchanged other than the tweaking of the remaining districts after the removal of a seat.

Victory in yet another state: Pennsylvania. Efforts to weaken the power of the vote for select groups of people are unlawful and must not be tolerated—not on our watch. We must and will act.

This is a HUGE moment in the fight for #FairMaps. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has adopted a new, FAIR, congressional map (that was proposed by NRAF-supported petitioners!) that will allow Pennsylvanians to vote in fair, lawful districts. Full statement➡️https://bit.ly/3HgCJCq
