The next election will reflect the results of the 2020 Census. That means a net shift of seats from Democrat-controlled states to those governed by Republicans. As a result, CA, IL, MI, NY, OH, PA, and WV will lose one seat. Winners will be CO, FL, MT, NC, and OR gaining a seat and Texas taking home the grand prize of two new seats.How this plays out is left up to state legislatures. Republicans control the legislatures in 30 states. In 23 of those, they also control the statehouse. In Kansas and Kentucky, a Democrat governor faces a veto-proof Republican majority in the state legislature.

Caution for what? What can the Democrats do that they are not already doing? They have done a coup, indicted the Republicans, have their voters in jail without bail --- and McConnell says we should be cautious. We are never going to get anywhere until we get rid of McConnell. The man does nothing.

The Democrat Supreme Court will end up redistrict Pennsylvania, even though both houses of the legislature are Republican. They've done it before

The House GOP wants those Committees back under their control, & reduce the power of the Squad, as well as the Speakership to throw Nancy out along with her gang from House leadership. The Red States then benefit from that power so they have every incentive to do this. Thus revenge & the desire for power will carry the day👏 Human Nature😁

Caution? Illinois just stuck it right up the ass of GOP voters here by completely locking the Republicans out of the whole process using data that isn't from the full census. They literally gerrymandered the new maps in such a way that 14 downstate republicans were put head to head in 7 newly drawn districts at the state level. Fatboy signed it after promising to veto any such effort for the last 2 years. Caution? When you have the opportunity, you bury your opponent. The commies do it all the time, and the gutless Repubs just play kinder, gentler.

Mitch McConnell does not want the GOP to be in control. That means he has to do actual work instead of going after his own party's conservatives.

President Joe Biden on Wednesday called for the education system to be expanded from 12 years to 14 years for all Americans to make the US more competitive on a global scale. His speech in Illinois drew about 100 protesters holding signs supporting Donald Trump. McHenry County, where Biden made his remarks, went for the former president in the 2020 election. One large sign read: 'Make America Proud Again.' Biden's focus during his daylong trip is on his plan for free childcare and the education component of his 'human' infrastructure package that he will push to pass Congress without Republican votes.

Democrats and the mainstream media have raked Republicans over the coals for months now over their continued objections to a Capitol Riots Commission.While the Democrat argument is that Republicans are supposedly afraid of the truth, the GOP’s argument is that it is unnecessary to add a “commission” on top of the DOJ investigation as well as the other numerous inevitable Democrat-run committee “investigations” into the attack, which they feel will ultimately be little more than show trials designed not only for Democrats to obfuscate the matter even more so than they’ve already done but also to keep the issue and Trump’s name out there going into the 2022 midterms.

Political scientist Lynne Chandler García said the Constitution brought about 'inequality' and that George Washington was a racist. She argued that the history of the U.S. proved that 'racism has shaped both foreign and domestic policy.' Garcia, who teaches Marxist theory at the USAF Academy in Colorado Springs, said she agreed with the Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman General Mark Milley who recently told Congress that Critical Race Theory 'is not unpatriotic.'

Raytheon Technologies, the second largest U.S. defense contractor, is asking its employees to 'identify their privilege' and 'develop intersectional allyship' in a 'woke' training course, leaked documents show. Raytheon CEO Greg Hayes spearheaded the campaign called 'Stronger Together' starting last summer, which was revealed through training documents reported by Chris Rufo, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a conservative think-tank. The documents instruct employees at the weapons-maker to strive for 'equity' over 'equality', and tutor them on 'intersectionality', a world-view that critics say divides people into different categories in a hierarchy of privilege and oppression based on race, gender, sexual identity,

No one has milked the events of January 6 more than House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). She set the official narrative early and often, a storyline her scribes in the news media have dutifully repeated without question or scrutiny. “[Y]esterday, the president of the United States incited an armed insurrection against America, the gleeful desecration of the U.S. Capitol, which is the temple of our American democracy,” Pelosi lamented in a hyperdramatic press conference the day after the raucous protest. She accused President Trump of “sedition” and urged his cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove him just two weeks before he officially left the White House.

The Capitol is still locked down, still closed to Americans. One has to ask why. The Democrats are going to try to use the ‘investigation’ of the three-hour Capitol riot by a select committee to continue an effort to connect Republicans to the event and bash them going into 2022. All that is troubling. But now there’s something that perhaps is even more troubling because of the clear potential for abuse. According to the New York Times, the U.S. Capitol Police have announced they are now planning to expand operations outside Washington “beginning with the opening of field offices in California and Florida” but the plan is to open “several additional regional offices.”
