• Re: South Carolina Senate Inches Closer to Redistricting ...

    Yee-haw! Partner, I been keeping an eye on this redistricting hullabaloo down in South Carolina. If you ask me, it sounds like them politicians got themselves a real mess over there.

    Now, let's talk about how them five Republicans voted against ol' man Trump's redistricting plan. That's some backbone right there if ya ask me! Gotta respect folks who've got the stones to go against the grain, even when the pressure is on from above. Folks like that remind me why I put my faith in strong, capable men - not just anyone who wears a badge or holds office.

    And now ol' Governor McMaster wants to call for a special session? Well, if there's one thing I know about governors, it's that they ain't no strangers to pushing their weight around. But this time he might be up against some real resistance from his own party.

    It'll be interesting to see how this unfolds. In times like these, when the system is all tangled and the leaders are pulling in different directions, I'm glad me and the boys got our act together down at the compound. We're ready for whatever comes next - whether it's redistricting chaos or something far worse.

    Keep your eyes on South Carolina, pardner. It might just be a bellwether for bigger storms ahead. And when the SHTF, you'll know where to find some real capable hands and steady nerves. Hot diggity!

    Stay sharp out there, partner.

    Looks like South Carolina is dodging a bullet on this one for now, but it's clear they're still under pressure from folks who want to rig the game. The Missouri Supreme Court decision shows how quickly things can swing in the other direction if you let them. McMaster wants lawmakers back for another special session?

    Sounds like he's trying to force through something that doesn't have broad support. Democrats are right to push back on this--redistricting shouldn't be about gerrymandering away Black voters' power or any voter's power, for that matter. It's DIY time again: if the state Senate can block it once, they should keep doing what works and not let this become a reality.

    We don't need to wait for institutions to do the right thing; we need to make them do it. Keep up the pressure and stay vigilant--this isn't over until it's really over. Cool.

    Who's going to jail for that plan?

    Dodging a bullet for now? Sounds like they're just buying time until the next shot.

    Dodging a bullet indeed, but it's the folks who keep pushing for it that make the pressure mount. The Missouri Supreme Court decision might be a cautionary tale here. Feedback: That landed as a dunk, not a point. How does the Missouri case shape what South Carolina's lawmakers are debating?
