As a white Southerner in the United States, I am deeply appalled. Words absolutely fail to describe how this gerrymandering could downspiral from the loss of political representation for Black Americans to loss of professional opportunities and individual personal freedoms. And don't get me started about educational equality. This is an outrage, and an assault against the memory of the Black slaves whose labor literally built the Southlands from the ground up. It's a misery and a heartbreak for their descendants, many of whom still live in poverty, oppression, and injustice.

So I guess #WaywardWaymos are a thing now?

Unoccupied, driverless #Waymo #cars have invaded a neighborhood near us, repeatedly #driving into a dead-end road, around the cul-de-sac, then driving out. They're not there to pick up passengers. But there are plenty of children and pets in the area.

The cars are lost. And on auto-repeat. :eyeroll:

#Empty #Waymos invade #Atlanta #neighborhood, circle #CulDeSac for hours with no #passengers

As Democrats "have steadily been wiping out Republican officials in the core #Atlanta counties of swing-state of #Georgia,"

The governor quietly SIGNED INTO LAW a requirement ONLY for the 5 most populous Metro Atlanta counties of Fulton, Cobb, Gwinnett, Dekalb & Clayton that FORBIDS POLITICAL PARTY DESIGNATION on ballots for most local officials.

It also moves elections for most affected officials to May, when there is typically less voter turnout.

Unbelievable

The #FederalGovernment can keep the #2020election ballots from #Georgia’s #FultonCounty that were seized by the #FBI from a warehouse near #Atlanta, a judge ruled Wednesday.

US District Judge JP Boulee’s decision came after lawyers for the county had argued that the #ballots & other #election materials, as well as any electronic copies the #DOJ has made, should be returned because the seizure was improper & #unconstitutional.
