Both Democrats and Republicans in the U.S. will claim that their opponents are the worse perpetrators when it comes to gerrymandering. Sam Wang and his team at Princeton University took a look at the data and graded states for their congressional and legislative redistricting. Here's his blogpost explaining the method, plus, at the second link, the results. "From this systematic comparison across every state, we learned that there is a very particular way that districting can be fair: take the power away from legislators."

Blood on the #GOP 's hands AGAIN! Standing in the way of common sense gun regulation by being bought off by gun lobbyists. Shame on them all! Blood on them all! Perhaps if #KashPatel and #PamBlondi called off their war on law abiding immigrants, law enforcement would have enough time to identify these criminals *before* they act. Just like this one apparently *could* have been! #Politics

Do you want your #government to see and know everything about you? #palantir does, and they have built the tools to track your every move, post, and all your friends - The company’s software enables law enforcement and government analysts to connect vast, disparate datasets, build intelligence profiles and search for individuals based on characteristics as granular as a tattoo or an immigration status. It transforms historically static records – think department of motor vehicles files, police reports and subpoenaed social media data like location history and private messages – into a fluid web of intelligence and surveillance. These departments and agencies use Palantir’s platform to assemble detailed profiles of individuals, mapping their social networks, tracking their movements, identifying their physical characteristics and reviewing their criminal history. #Surveillance #SurveillanceState #GovernmentOverreach #privacy #RightToPrivacy #anonymity #RepublicansDidThis #GOP

Jan 6th was the beer hall putsch. Now we see #Trump’s assumption of dictatorial power based on flimsy excuses. #America is sleep walking its way into #dictatorship. Members of the #GOP long ago announced they needed a “Caesar”, having recognised they cannot win democratically, and now they have got one. #uspol theguardian.com/commentisfree/
