The stakes are just enormous, and I think I really applaud Governor Newsom and all the people in California who had the guts and the foresight to put this before the people of California in response to that which Republicans have tried to do, have done, I guess, in Texas and in other states as well.
This is all about power.
This is about the acquisition and the maintenance of power, even illegitimately gained power.
And I think the point that the governor made is really an important one.
This is also a sign of weakness.
If Republicans had a record that they could run on, if they were not afraid of losing the House of Representatives because of
The bad things that they've done, the bad, beautiful bill that they put together, the way in which they're conducting these immigration raids, these attacks on universities, attacks on the media.
If they were not afraid of their record, they wouldn't do the kinds of things that they're doing now, which is to try to rig the 2026 midterms.
Yeah, this is all about power.
That's the through line, whether it's doing gerrymandering mid-cycle, whether it's trying to have a compliant Congress, whether it's a supine Supreme Court.
It's all about power.
That's the thing that explains everything that they are doing.
And it's what authoritarians do.
They try to accumulate as much power as they can.
You know, they have elections in Russia.
And Putin, as you said, gets, you know, 95, 93% of the vote.
And we'll continue to have elections here in the United States.
The question is whether or not the elections that we have here will be meaningful ones, whether the people will actually get the opportunity to express their views on the policy direction of the nation.
And so...
again it's all about power whether it's you know gerrymandering weakening the voting rights act to take power away from people who the people in power now think are not supportive of them it's all about the acquisition and the use of power and that's one thing
