The former FBI director is facing ten years in prison for a photo of seashells on a beach. The president posted an AI-generated photo of himself holding an assault rifle. One of them was indicted this week. Guess which one.Robin's is back after a week and a half off, and the country didn't hold it together. This episode covers everything: the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting and the third assassination attempt on Donald Trump, the James Comey 8647 seashell indictment and the staggering hypocrisy behind it, the Iran war escalation with oil at $118 a barrel and gas at $4.12, Pete Hegseth's disastrous congressional testimony, King Charles III's state visit to a country visibly falling apart, Trump's threat to pull troops from Germany, the Jimmy Kimmel "expectant widow" controversy and the FCC's move against ABC, and the acting attorney general who used to be Trump's personal defense lawyer now running political prosecutions out of the DOJ.Robin pulls the receipts on every Republican who used "86" with zero consequences: Jack Posobiec tweeting "86 46," Matt Gaetz bragging about "86-ing" party leadership, Paul Gosar's anime assassination video, Trump's hogtied Biden truck video, and the thousands of "8646" products still for sale on Amazon, while James Comey faces a federal indictment for arranging shells on a beach.This is what selective prosecution looks like. This is what a weaponized justice system looks like. And this is what happens when you leave the country unsupervised for ten days.KEYWORDS: James Comey indicted, Comey seashell indictment, 8647 meaning, 8647 Comey, 86 meaning slang, White House Correspondents Dinner shooting 2026, Cole Tomas Allen, Trump assassination attempt 2026, Trump assassination attempt third, Iran war 2026, Iran oil prices, Strait of Hormuz blockade, oil prices today, gas prices 2026, Pete Hegseth testimony, Pete Hegseth Congress, Hegseth Iran war, King Charles state visit 2026, King Charles Trump, King Charles Congress speech, Trump King Charles state dinner, Jimmy Kimmel fired, Jimmy Kimmel expectant widow, Melania Trump Kimmel, Trump Kimmel ABC, FCC Disney broadcast license, Trump Germany troops, Trump Merz Germany, Todd Blanche attorney general, Pam Bondi fired, acting attorney general, Trump DOJ political prosecution, weaponized DOJ, selective prosecution, Jack Posobiec 86 46, Matt Gaetz 86, Paul Gosar AOC video, Gretchen Whitmer 8645, Trump hogtied Biden video, 8646 merchandise, First Amendment free speech, Maurene Comey lawsuit, Comey daughter fired, midterm elections 2026, defense budget 2026, Iran school bombing, Iran ceasefire talks, Trump Truth Social assault rifle, political violence, We Saw the Devil podcast, WSTD podcast, Robin Coleman podcast, political commentary podcast, news podcast 2026Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-crime-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

Josh is joined by Shannon Bray, a Libertarian candidate for Senate in North Carolina and author of Liberty Unleashed, for a wide-ranging conversation about taxes, Social Security, education, war, and why so many voters feel politically homeless. Shannon explains how he went from government work and frustration with both major parties to running for office as a Libertarian. The conversation digs into: Why a consumption tax gives people more control than hidden taxes Why Social Security feels like a broken contract How schools fail to teach basic financial literacy Why Shannon's military background changed the way he thinks about war They also talk about the two-party illusion, independents walking away from Republicans and Democrats, and how libertarians can start conversations without watering down the message.

Iran war has cost $25 billion to date, defense official says, as Hegseth faces questions about war strategy. The round that struck a U.S. Secret Service officer during Saturday's shooting outside the ballroom where the White House Correspondents' Dinner was taking place was not friendly fire, multiple senior law enforcement officials told CBS News Wednesday. The Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down Louisiana's congressional map that includes two majority-Black districts, delivering a significant victory for Republicans in a major decision that narrows the landmark Voting Rights Act.

A 72-year-old man in Wisconsin just did something the state never expected… He tested their election system. Not with hacking tools. Not with insider access. Just a name… and a date of birth. That’s all it took for Harry Wait to request absentee ballots belonging to some of the most powerful officials in Wisconsin, including the Democrat Mayor of Racine and the Republican Speaker of the State Assembly. Let that sink in. Ballots… sent out… based on publicly available information. And when those ballots arrived? He didn’t vote them. He didn’t hide them. He turned them over to authorities. He exposed what he says is a massive vulnerability inside Wisconsin’s “My Vote” system, one that, he proved, could be exploited by anyone with basic information. But instead of being thanked… Instead of the system being fixed… Harry Wait was charged. Prosecuted. Convicted. Now he’s facing up to 7 years in prison. This is what Democrats do, they punish the good guys, especially if they are Republicans exposing Democrat inspired election fraud. Today, I walk you through exactly what Harry Wait did and what this means for election integrity going forward.
Howie Kurtz is joined by the co-host of Fox's The Weekend, Tomi Lahren, for a candid look at the security threats facing President Trump and the internal frustrations boiling over within the GOP. They discuss the aftermath of the averted tragedy at the White House Correspondents' Dinner and the latest legal controversy surrounding James Comey. Kurtz and Lahren break down the stories dominating the headlines in 2026, from the conflict with Iran to the scandals rocking the sports world. "I think if you're going to see Republicans stay home in the midterms, it's more so gonna be because they didn't see enough movement on those issues that they voted on." — Tomi Lahren on the political impact of congressional GOP performance.

Florida's new congressional map is out, and the more I look at it, the more it feels like Republicans are trying to push right up against the edge of what is politically and legally possible. The goal is obvious: take a delegation that used to split closer to 20 to 8 and force it into a 24 to 4 map. The way they get there is not subtle. It is classic packing and cracking, cramming Democrats into a handful of ultra blue districts while shaving just enough of that vote into surrounding areas to flip them red. On paper, it works. In practice, it might be a little too clever for its own good.The Orlando and Tampa changes are where the knife really goes in. Seats that were at least competitive or lightly Democratic get completely reengineered into solid Republican territory, often by double digit swings. That is not a tweak, that is a transformation. But the tradeoff is that you are stretching your margins thinner everywhere else. You are counting on your voters to show up consistently in districts that are no longer blowouts, and that is where the risk creeps in. If turnout slips even a little, some of these engineered wins start to look a lot shakier.South Florida is the most interesting piece, because it is where the assumptions behind the map really get tested. The strategy is to break up a dense cluster of Democratic voters and isolate them into just a few seats, while turning longtime strongholds into competitive races. Debbie Wasserman Schultz's district is the clearest example, going from safely blue to something that could genuinely flip. But that only works if the political coalitions in South Florida behave the way Republicans think they will.And that is a big if. The theory is that Latino voters in South Florida, especially Cuban, Venezuelan, and Colombian communities, will continue trending Republican, especially given recent foreign policy developments that resonate directly with those groups. If that holds, then this map could deliver exactly what it is designed to do. But if there is even a modest snapback, or if Democratic enthusiasm spikes the way it sometimes does in midterms without Trump on the ballot, then those same districts could turn into real problems.Because the energy question cuts both ways. Republicans may like how the map looks, but Democrats in Florida are fired up in a way that is hard to ignore. These are high turnout voters, especially older ones, and they do not need much motivation to show up. When you combine that with districts that have been made more competitive by design, you end up with a map that is not just aggressive, but potentially volatile.On top of all of that is the legal question, which is not trivial. Florida technically has rules against partisan gerrymandering, and while the state can argue that this is just a neutral redraw, that argument is going to get tested. If the courts decide this crosses the line, then the entire map could get thrown into uncertainty at the worst possible time for Republicans.So I keep coming back to the same thought. This is a high risk, high reward play. If everything breaks right, Republicans net multiple seats and strengthen their position heading into the midterms. But if even a few assumptions go wrong, turnout, demographics, or the courts, then what looks like a masterstroke could end up being a self inflicted problem.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:16 - Florida's Redistricted Map00:21:43 - Update00:22:51 - House Republicans00:26:05 - Texas Senate Race00:29:31 - Iran00:35:17 - Kirk Bado on His Correspondents' Dinner Experience01:23:16 - Final Thoughts and Wrap-up This is a public episode.

There's plenty of hate and divisiveness to go around, the rhetoric on all sides is way too heated, but the leader of the Republican Party is the king of hate, he's the king of divisiveness, he's the king of cruelty, he's the king of inciting violence. So As long as he is their leader, Republicans own the ugly rhetoric in this country. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On Tuesday, April 21, the Justice Department announced an 11-count indictment charging the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) with financial crimes, including wire fraud and making false statements to a federally insured bank. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said the nonprofit organization secretly sent over $3 million to informants inside extremist groups without telling donors what their money was being used for. The SPLC denies any wrongdoing and plans to fight the charges.Ad-free podcasts are here!To listen to this podcast ad-free, and to enjoy our subscriber only premium content, go to ReadTangle.com to sign up!California's Republican candidate for governor.As the midterms approach, we'll interview some candidates from across the political spectrum who are in high-profile, fascinating races.

King Charles of the UK is scheduled to address Congress today before traveling to New York City to meet Mayor Mamdani on Wednesday. Mark discusses whether Jimmy Kimmel could be taken off the air due to his jokes about Melania and Donald Trump's lives. He also raises concerns about individuals threatening President Trump, suggesting that they should be prosecuted. Democrats continue their heated rhetoric against the President. Mark interviews political strategist Ed Rollins. Mark and Ed discuss similarities between the recent assassination attempt on President Trump and the attempt on Ronald Reagan. Ed notes that Trump needs to focus on the nation's key issues to win voters in November and believes the likelihood of younger voters switching from Democrat to Republican is low. In addition, he adds that if gas prices decrease before the midterms, Republicans could have a chance to win both the House and Senate. Mark also questions whether it is possible to abandon the script and speak freely on air as the President. There's a real buzz in New York City right now, with real estate investors putting up new skyscrapers all over town. Mark shares some inside scoop on where these impressive buildings are going up and what's driving the latest building boom. Katie Couric of NBC is reportedly writing a book that will address her experiences working with former anchor Matt Lauer. Mark interviews streaming host Bill O' Reilly. Bill recounts being present when gunshots were fired at the White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday, sharing his account of the incident. As a result, the likelihood of future dinners being held at the Washington hotel has decreased, with the suspect now in custody. Mark and Bill also discuss how Disney's programming, including shows like Jimmy Kimmel Live, has negatively impacted their business in recent years.

On Saturday evening, there was a shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington, D.C. President Trump and members of his cabinet were rushed out of the room, and Trump later gave a surprisingly calm press conference. Authorities have a suspect in custody. Normally, security is extremely tight wherever the President goes, but several journalists reported that security at the event felt surprisingly lax. As politicians took to the Sunday shows to call for unity, internet gumshoes are speculating as to whether the shooting was staged. MSNOW Senior Washington Correspondent and former President of the White House Correspondents Association, Eugene Daniels, helps us make sense of it all.And in headlines, Trump backs out of negotiations with Iran in Pakistan, Republicans use the Correspondents' Dinner shooting to call for an end to the Department of Homeland Security shutdown, and the Department of Justice drops its investigation of former Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, which opens the door for Kevin Warsh to be named as his successor.Show Notes: Check out Eugene's podcast – https://tinyurl.com/2tfpp6jn Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
In the United States, recidivism rate, or the likelihood that a criminal re-enters the prison system after being released, is among the highest in the world. The state with the highest reincarceration rate (within 3 years) is Delaware at 55.9 percent. While the lowest is Virginia at 17.9 percent. Earlier this month, Make Me Smart host, Kimberly Adams, moderated the 2026 Second Chance Forum at Georgetown University on the importance of second-chance employment programs to lowering recidivism rates in the United States. Adams sat down with two top law enforcement officials from across the aisle: Delaware Attorney General and Democrat, Kathy Jennings and Pennsylvania Attorney General and Republican, Dave Sunday.Today's podcast is an edited version of their conversation.

One of Donald Trump's few critics within his party is the libertarian-leaning senator Rand Paul, from Kentucky. Paul was recently the sole Republican to vote in favor of restricting the President's power to make war in Iran. He also opposed Trump on tariff policy, and on his budget bill in 2025. “He loves voting ‘NO' on everything,” the President fumed. Paul ran for President in 2016, and is considering another run for the White House in 2028. He talks with David Remnick about how he would differentiate himself from J. D. Vance and Marco Rubio; about his opposition to the attack on Iran; and about Pete Hegseth invoking Christianity in the war. “People quoting the Old Testament about smiting the enemy” concerns Paul greatly: “If this becomes Christians versus Muslims, I don't see a quick end to a war.” Further reading: “The End of Limits on a President's Wars,” by Ruth Marcus “Why Rand Paul Ran Aground,” by Kelefa Sanneh The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

Steve Schmidt returns to the "Daily Beast" podcast to unload a blistering critique of Donald Trump, King Charles III, and the global political order they’re reshaping, arguing the King’s U.S. visit is not just ill-timed, but a historic moral failure tied to Trump’s assaults on democracy and alliances. Speaking to Daily Beast executive editor Hugh Dougherty, Schmidt connects the dots from royal controversies and Jeffrey Epstein to Trump’s late-night social media tirades and questions about his mental fitness, warning of a dangerous erosion of institutional checks at the highest level of power. He predicts a political collapse for MAGA, a brutal electoral reckoning, and an internal unraveling fueled by conspiracy and infighting, while also torching both Republican complicity and Democratic weakness.

Melania Trump may have been the first to notice the incident unfolding. Afterward, President Trump spoke with WOR's Sean Hannity, on the phone, who may have the most comprehensive coverage. The suspect's first court appearance is scheduled for today in Federal Court. Mark interviews NY Post journalist Michael Goodwin. Michael comments on the importance of current security measures at the White House Correspondents' Dinner and similar major events, emphasizing their necessity for future safety. He questions whether the backlash against President Trump over his decisions on the war in Iran is surprising, given that previous presidents were also pressured to address Iran's regime. Bruce Blakeman is seen as a strong contender for the New York governor's race. Lee Zeldin nearly won in 2022 due to Governor Hochul's missteps, but ultimately fell short. Michael believes Bruce Blakeman's visibility at events and on the streets will be crucial for his campaign's success. New details emerge that the suspect's family was in contact with him before the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday. Mark analyzes what might have transpired. First Lady Melania Trump has responded after late-night host Jimmy Kimmel made an assassination joke about her and President Trump. The ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz continues to impact global oil supplies, with China, Europe, and Iran among the most affected. Mark interviews pollster John McLaughlin. John and Mark are discussing whether the apparent third assassination attempt on President Trump at the dinner could boost his poll numbers. Bruce Blakeman's campaign for New York governor is gaining momentum, despite national polls showing Republicans trailing by four points ahead of the midterms.

Tucker Carlson, the right wing pundit and onetime Donald Trump diehard, now says he regrets supporting the President. Carlson apologized on his show for misleading his audiences and said he'll be tormented over that support for a long time. The comments mark a high-profile break between Trump and his former media ally, and they come amid growing divisions within the Republican party over Iran. New Yorker staff writer Jason Zengerle took a close look at Carlson's many iterations and reversals in his recent biography “Hated by All the Right People.” We talk to Zengerle about what Carlson's apparent change of heart signals about the future of Trump-era conservatism and get your reactions.

This episode is presented by Create A Video – I regret to inform you that Republicans are pouncing again. This time it's in response to the fourth assassination attempt on President Donald Trump. Democrats are complaining in a Politico article that the GOP shouldn't "politicize" or "weaponize" the attack against them.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast All the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com
Guest Host Trae Crowder is joined by his friend and fellow standup comedian, Geoffrey Asmus! The two dig into the state of Trump's base, including Geoffrey's own MAGA dad showing signs of buyer's remorse, and why economic pain at the dinner table may finally be doing what years of political argument couldn't. They trade theories on why so many working-class voters remain Republican even when their actual policy views skew left and what it would take to build a real alternative.They also get into the comedy culture wars: the rise of right-wing adjacent comics, the Riyadh comedy festival, and explain the term "clapter.” Geoffrey and Trae also address the threat of artificial intelligence to creative work, Joe Rogan's bizarre evolution, the Kill Tony phenomenon, and how the manosphere targets young men hungry for acceptance and direction.LEARN more about Trae and see his standup! https://www.traecrowder.com/WATCH Geoffrey's standup special and see him on tour! https://www.whitecomedian.com/SUPPORT THE SHOW BY VISITING OUR SPONSORS:Save money on your insurance bills with SelectQuote!

The players are also the umpires — and that's why the game is broken. In this on-air conversation, Paul Rieckhoff lays out why the Virginia redistricting fight is a flashing red warning light for American democracy, not a win for either team. Republicans moved first in Texas. Democrats followed. And the 45% of Americans who now identify as independent are watching both parties gerrymander their way toward mutual annihilation while 10,000 voters a week walk away from the two-party system entirely. From there the conversation shifts to the Strait of Hormuz, where Trump's three stated objectives in Iran — regime change, securing enriched uranium, and reopening the strait — remain unmet while 41% of the Navy is tied up and gas prices climb toward four dollars a gallon. Paul closes with a story that should not get lost: the administration's reported plan to send Afghan allies, including 400 children, to the Congo. A betrayal of the people who had our troops' backs, and a warning shot to every future ally who might consider standing with us. Righteous anger, rigorous analysis, and a reminder that independent is an attitude. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Ditch your expensive carrier and support Independent Americans!

It's a night I will never forget as Master of Ceremonies at the Clay County Republicans Lincoln-Reagan-Trump Day Dinner at Harrah's casino's ballroom in North Kansas City. White House Assistant to the President and Staff Secretary Will Scharf was the guest speaker and after he gave a wonderful speech about his new found fame introducing all the executive orders and handing them to the President in the Oval Office, I sat down with him on stage for a question and answer session. It would be a mix of serious and fun questions... until his phone went off like a fire alarm. The whole room could hear it and we all thought it was President Trump calling in to say hello to the crowd. It was not. It was just a moment after the assassination attempt in DC Saturday night and the next ten minutes would be simply remarkable for everyone in attendance. Especially Will Scharf. I have it all on tape and will play it for you. Then, we go over the full Chiefs draft as it looks like they just crushed it. They're clearly going in a new direction with the team. And in our Final Final, NFL owners political contributions are very one sided... to Republicans.

Today, we're bringing you a new episode of 'On the Road' with Jonathan Martin. Last week, Jonathan sat down with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) at the Masters to talk Trump, 2028 and the upcoming Georgia Senate race. Plus: Kemp on EVs, economic policy and why he's staying focused on 2026 — not the White House.

On this episode of the South Carolina Lede for April 25, 2026: we look at the second Republican gubernatorial primary debate that took place this week in Charleston.
One of Donald Trump's few critics within his party is the libertarian-leaning senator Rand Paul, from Kentucky. Paul was recently the sole Republican to vote in favor of restricting the President's power to make war in Iran. He also opposed Trump on tariff policy, and on his budget bill in 2025. “He loves voting ‘NO' on everything,” the President fumed. Paul ran for President in 2016, and is considering another run for the White House in 2028. He talks with David Remnick about how he would differentiate himself from J. D. Vance and Marco Rubio; about his opposition to the attack on Iran; and about Pete Hegseth invoking Christianity in the war. “People quoting the Old Testament about smiting the enemy” concerns Paul greatly: “If this becomes Christians versus Muslims, I don't see a quick end to a war.” Further reading: “The End of Limits on a President's Wars,” by Ruth Marcus “Why Rand Paul Ran Aground,” by Kelefa Sanneh New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday.

It's Casual Friday on The Majority Report On today's program: Donald Trump doesn't want to give a timeline for the war in Iran. "We we're in Vietnam 18 years...I've been doing this for six weeks" Pete Hegseth continues to whine about the lack of support from Europe for the U.S.'s pointless war. The State Department releases an official statement that states that the U.S. engaged in a war with Iran at the "request of Israel". Astead Herndon, editorial director at Vox, joins the program to discuss his new podcast, America, Actually, and recap the week's news. In the Fun Half: RFK, Jr. is caught manipulating medical studies during a senate hearing by a fellow Republican. RFK, Jr.'s data manipulation is never exemplified better than by his suggesting that trump has lowered drug prices by 600%. Dave Rubin is devastated by Virginia voting to gerrymander their state. Jillian Michaels issues an open call to people from the left to come on to her podcast for a debate and Sam accepts. Michael Knowles goes on a racist rant inspired by Ramy Youssef appearing alongside Elmo for Arabic heritage month. Somehow Knowles' impression of Elmo is far more offensive than his islamophobia. Donal Trump hosts a press conference where he claims to have had more people at his 2016 inauguration than attended Martin Luther King, Jr's March on Washington. After his rant he falls asleep for the rest of the press conference. All that and more.

FBI director Kash Patel has sued The Atlantic for $250 million. It comes after the magazine published an article alleging that Patel is frequently drunk on the job and that his security team has had difficulty waking him on multiple occasions. Still, The Atlantic isn't backing down, writing in a statement, “We stand by our reporting on Kash Patel, and we will vigorously defend The Atlantic and our journalists against this meritless lawsuit.” But we've seen this move before, and it appears Kash is simply taking a page out of President Donald Trump's book. Trump himself has sued the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times for stories and polls he didn't like. To talk more about the litigious Trump administration, we spoke with Oliver Darcy. He's the founder of Status, a nightly newsletter focused on the media.And in headlines, Dr. Mehmet Oz says Trump's testosterone is top tier, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt recites Iran war talking points, and Republicans are losing at their own redistricting game.Show Notes: Check out Status – https://www.status.news/ Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, the Democrat Party sides with Iran and terrorists, including Hamas and Hezbollah. Sen Chris Murphy posted “awesome” upon reading a false report that 28 Iranian ships had escaped a U.S. blockade in the Strait of Hormuz. Sen Chuck Schumer embraces candidates like Abdul El-Said in Michigan, who compares Israel to Hamas and campaigns with Hasan Piker. Americans will not tolerate elected officials rooting for the enemy. Also, President Trump has excommunicated the Woke Reich, like Tucker Carlson, who is finished. His erraticism, extremism, and long list of isms, and his public decline and unraveling, have been career and influence killing. Later, the U.S. is taking a wait and see approach toward Iran, due to the regime's divided leadership and lack of a single negotiating voice. A divided regime creates the ideal precondition for collapse, so the U.S. should actively assist this by using all tools available to force its collapse and arm the courageous Iranian people. Afterward, Rep Chip Roy calls in and announces the MAMDANI Act of 2026 (Measures Against Marxism's Dangerous Adherents and Noxious Islamists), which enacts sweeping immigration law changes to deport, denaturalize, deny U.S. citizenship, or bar entry to any alien who is a member of a socialist, communist, Chinese Communist Party, or Islamic fundamentalist party, or who advocates for socialism, communism, Marxism, or Islamic fundamentalism. The U.S. has no obligation to admit aliens seeking to undermine the Constitution or promote ideologies opposed to American values. Finally, Democrats in Virginia just voted to redraw congressional districts in a way that dismantles Republican strongholds, an action led by Gov Abigail Spanberger, who campaigned as a moderate and specifically promised not to alter redistricting. This is the worst gerrymandering in American history, especially in a purple state like Virginia. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
