know we don t do anything about it, taking the attitude because they re getting what they want. a state like florida can create a police state. you can t protest there as heather just said. you can t teach ruby bridge s book. you can get sued for assigning books, the librarians are scared. he s created a fear base aid among everyone who isn t his ideological match so if you re a right winger who wants the hand mads tail you re free but that s a weird freedom. this isn t a consequence of essentially the supreme court you ve warned about this a lot taking a hands off approach to the kind of ideological attacks that republicans have unleashed against everyone but them. when supreme court rules with what is called federalism, the idea that the state should have broad authority to kind of do whatever they want within their borders, there is a lot of people that think that s a reasonable outcome and think that it s fine for the states to choose for themselves and
scared about black and brown people voting in texas then they wouldn t have pass the the voter suppression law to make it harder. yes, and fullactually, they re passing redistricting to figure out how do we silence black and brown people? that s exactly what is happening now. if you want to talk about a party that is tries to property up their black candidates, i d also point you to a party that s trying to silence them. well, so the thing is, jason, the gerrymandering won t do anything about the state race. they will try to smash the votes in harris county and try to squash the non-white vote but i wonder if in the end, this game between turning the state into the hand mads tail state and going after black and brown votering with aggression, the lieutenant governor blaming black people for covid outbreaks. the accumulation winds up biting them in the butt if they wind up with allen west on the ticket instead of the current governor.
