I wanted to get this done before the primaries started. And now this will be my last post before the 2022 midterms. There is a lot to talk about in this post so I might as well get to all of it that I can within my time limit to get this done as soon as possible.
One
of the things that makes this election different than all of the others is redistricting.
This makes me think of the song Shape of You. Candidates of both parties have
already lost seats due to being pitted against each other in the primaries and
other seats are already vacant.

One
of the more infamous Congresspeople in the House right now is Matt Gaetz who
has a lot of accusations against him. He may not face criminal charges due to
victims not wanting to cooperate with testifying (and not that he’s technically
innocent). Here are links about him.
I
forget which YouTuber that I like covered this topic, but there was a video
about a question about the insurrection that is worth covering in this blog.
Enjoy this and hopefully you will see a good point raised about this.

The
next section is about Marjorie Taylor Greene who is
already the most infamous Congresswoman despite merely being a freshman
lawmaker. I can’t think of much else to say that these links don’t already
cover already.
Of
course, there are bad parts involving some good people who lost primaries. The
Republicans prove just how horrible they are by smacking the free thinkers in
their party with signs right in the face. Here’s what they did to Liz Cheney.
Going
to another Congresswoman, we get to Lauren Boebert who might not survive this
election or other ones in the future. People like her who are part of the
sedition caucus should be easy targets for Democrats. But will they win against
them?
Even
when we get to the 147 members of the sedition caucus, 139 of them members of
the House, a lot of them still voted to honor the police officers who protected
the capitol. But there are 12 who didn’t. They apparently didn’t like an
insurrection being called that.
They are Andy Biggs, Michael Cloud, Andrew Clyde, Matt Gaetz, Louie Gohmert, Bob Good, Lance Gooden, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Andy Harris, Thomas Massie, John Rose, and Greg Steube.
We
won’t know for a while if redistricting alone will give Republicans a majority
again in the House of Representatives. But it is looking like they will. The
main reason why I don’t feel that we should say that even beforehand is that we
seem to just say that things are rigged against us and not accepting our own
failures. We don’t need that nonsense.
Now
when it came to campaign contributions regarding the sedition caucus, know that
I might do a potential post on this later called the politics of drinking soda,
even if it relates to far more than just what brands of soda are conservatives
and which ones are liberal. The point is, a lot of companies that stopped
giving money to the sedition caucus wound up resuming those donations not too
long later.
Since
we’ve gotten a Democratic trifecta, we got what we expected: good things. There
were a vote for covid aid relief that not one single Republican voted in favor
of. And, true to form, as soon as people revealed that they liked it,
Republicans tried to take credit for the very thing that they voted against.
They do this a lot, especially with coverage for preexisting conditions. Pay
attention to the voting record. Ignore what they say in ads.
While
I will get more into later some of the good things regarding the primaries this
year in a follow up post that I will explain in this post, I should get to
Madison Cawthorne, a Republican so infamous, he lost a non redistricting
primary race.
One
of the dumbest things about Republicans is their refusal to take covid
seriously, even this late into the pandemic. This is despite the fact that red
states have among the highest per capita dead of covid.
Something
to watch out for is the Supreme Court case regarding Alabama redistricting that
I will be sure to follow. It is weird that there was already a decision, sort
of, in that case, even though it hasn’t been decided yet, if that makes sense.
I will tell you that this case and Moore versus Harper are the two that I most
care about in this upcoming term. We’ll see if the Roberts court can top
Citizens “United” as most horrendous decision that they did.

For
all of the people who are convinced that it is the Democrats who are corrupt
despite not mentioning a single example to back up that belief, here is yet
another example of how there was a Republican who did something illegal.
While
I had no idea why Andy Biggs didn’t vote on Trump’s second impeachment, what I
do know is that he is a terrible person and not just because he voted against
honoring the police officers who protected the capitol. Why do Republicans
blantantly lie about January 6th 2021? Do they have to disagree with
anything there is video evidence supporting the exact opposite of what they
always say?
Seditious
Countdown will be included in future posts of this blog where instead of doing
results of the Congressional races, I will post a number of the remaining
members of the Sedition Caucus with updates as to what happened to all of the
ones no longer in office and what might have happened to those who sought and
actually got higher office. This will be done after January 3rd of
any odd numbered year where I will also include updates to the House races. I
may do that regardless of if I cover House races before the election.
