They may find out in November 2022 that nobody elected them and their 15 minutes of fame are over. The growing multi racial pushback against CRT in schools and low TV ratings for wokeness in sports might be followed by consumer antipathy to products of too-woke corporations. Money talks.

It could be a whole new political ballgame a year from now. I doubt the cultural left clerisy’s rigid dogmas have the support of even 1 in 10 Americans. But the fawning news coverage and commentary they get makes it seem more.

November 2022 should be a wipe out of this BS by people who just want their lives back. But didn't I read somewhere where Eric Holder has some group busily working on influencing the Congressional redistricting maps being redrawn in the states? Not to mention the "voting rights" bill pending in Congress which may be voted on next week while the rest of us are watching dispatches out of Kabul. Stay tuned.

You are correct. We live a distance south of Springfield, Illinois. Years back, I think it was the 90s, we lived in what was recognized as one of the most gerrymandered districts in the nation. Our Democratic Congressman was from Rock Island --- ROCK ISLAND! That district had the blessing of both parties. Towns were split up giving reliably D precincts (not towns, precincts) to the D incumbent, and the reliably R precincts to the congressional district with the R incumbent.

What I see going on now is not so much a desire to protect the incumbents as it is to federalize the whole election process, benefiting only the Ds. Not good.
