Rotten Red Rod posted:Real question, since I don't know enough about the situation: what's stopping the Democrats from just undoing this when they take power? As others have said, Wisconsin is gerrymandered to gently caress. Here's some additional data: Walker (R) lost his reelection bid by ~1%. So roughly speaking the state's population splits 51% D and 49% R. However, the Wisconsin legislature will be 36 D and 63 R. The state is so gerrymandered that 49% of the vote yields 63% of the power. It's minority rule, so much so that it's difficult to call Wisconsin a functioning healthy Democracy. (And yes, this is happening on a national level too.) https://www.jsonline.com/story/news...ing/2219092002/

Condiv posted:https://twitter.com/davidsiders/status/1073640892882333697 The idea that Beto should be running in 2020 is monumentally stupid for so many reasons, not the least of which being that a potentially successful Texas Democrat looks a lot different from a potentially successful national Democrat. Saying you're not a progressive is never, ever a good look, but it's more understandable from someone who's primarily concerned with Texas politics. Pushing him for a national run is going to ruin someone who could have potentially taken a Texas senate seat.

https://twitter.com/emptywheel/status/1073659901522731008 CNN caught Zainab Ahmad (their middle east specialist) and Michael Dreeben (their primary person for all things appellate and complicated) returning to base at the right time, so we can make some very vague inferences quote:No sign that it was Mueller's office. No sign of defense counsel. The courthouse security had ushered the lawyers into and out of the building for their secret hearing completely under cover. The sealed hearing stayed confidential.

That girl getting 51 years for killing her rapist while nothing will be done to the Johnson and Johnson executinves that knowingly exposed generations of babies to asbestos is another example of how the idea we have a functional justice system is an absolute joke.

one thing marcy was speculating about (and, again, we have no reason to think this yet) is that it's not about testifying in front of the grand jury - others have challenged that and those challenges are all public - but rather some issue where Mueller's team is trying to pierce attorney/client privilege. that would be a LOT more sensitive, if they're trying to claim they have proof of the crime/fraud exception, even the assertion that it applies could be extremely damaging

I for one am just shocked by this! The best thing that will happen is that we get to shutter and bulldoze all of Trump's gaudy properties while he hopefully had to watch

theflyingorc posted:There was very little evidence of widespread vote manipulation in Texas. He probably wins without voter suppression, though. Actually, from what I recall there's a long-acknowledged issue with the machines in some parts of the state where if you vote straight party your votes count for the opposite party. The state Republicans have no intention of fixing this despite knowing and even admitting it exists because the glitch favors their party when it comes to them potentially being pushed out of office. Since any surprise turnout like that is more likely to vote straight party and the Republican base are fairly consistent in their turnout this means that it fucks with the Democrats first and foremost by having votes for Democrats go to Republicans instead. It's not vote manipulation in the standard sense, but it's definitely an issue. There were posts on twitter from people enraged that their votes were being changed back during the election. Given that and the close margin it's not too hard to think that he might have won (or pulled even closer) had the state had proper means to account for votes.
