This week, we trace the political cartography shaping America’s future. Texas Republicans passed their new congressional maps, disenfranchising Democratic voters while enabling Trump & his billionaire buddies' agenda.
Meanwhile, California Governor Gavin Newsom promotes his own redistricting plan with video ads & press conferences, ultimately leaving it up to voters to decide in a special election. Newsom fights fire with fire as he unleashes a barrage of epic tweets trolling Donald Trump.
Then we bring it home to New York City politics: the latest mayoral fundraising numbers set the stage for a high-stakes general election, Eric Adams stumbles into yet another scandal courtesy of Winnie Greco’s infamous bag of potato chips, and Democratic nominee for Mayor, Zohran Mamdani makes history—and local politics—cool again with a scavenger hunt! From maps to tweets to mayors, we discuss what is and what is not suitable for democracy.
