Why can’t we ever find an OC that can make tight spiral throws, with anticipation and above-average velocity.

That’s your opinion.
He only needs 1100and 5TD and he’s worth it, since NE paid the same price WE paid for Greenard.
What are they supposed to do?
Should the media treat Jalen Hurts like Joe Biden, and say that he’s sharper than ever and on top of his game?

Leftists don’t speak for liberals, nor do they believe, liberals are reflective at anything.

Let’s be real.
In red states, questioning if their redistricting efforts are really racism or a pure political power play is valid.
It’s impossible to separate Southern Dem Cities/districts from race but that doesn’t mean the decisions are based on race.
But that also doesn’t mean they’re not.
You can’t redistrict in the South to favor Republicans without minorities/blacks being affected.
It’s impossible.
Democrats can’t redistrict in the blue states and have opponents complain it’s racially based.
Thats impossible.
Even though some Dems do claim their redistricting efforts in blue states are based on red states redistricting based on race. Those statements could invalidate all their efforts by Supreme Court if someone made that argument and US SC wanted to be diabolical.
Supreme Court already upheld Californias redistricting plan so they aren’t being 100% biased but they are definitely more biased than being a neutral party, which is the ideal stance on any issue, but that would be naive at this point.
Virginia redistricting probably should have been denied by the State Supreme Court due to their amendment rule.
They believe that general
Assembly must vote on it first (passes), then have a general election where every voter knows
What’s at stake when electing the general assembly, then after the general election, the new assembly votes on it again.
Since 1.3 million (40% of all votes) people already (early) voted for the 2025 general election before the general assembly voted on it, those 1.3 million weren’t aware before casting their vote what was at stake.
Democrats judges argued that only Election Day counts and too bad for the 1.3 million who voted that didn’t know what was at stake.
The Virginia state SC was shady that they allowed the referendum to occur, when they know that they are going to void it due to the previous reason.
The four justices hoped referendum failed and the issue would be moot without them getting the blame. IMO, once it passed they made the ruling they knew they were going to make.
The wildcard is the language of the referendum, which is still in VA SC pocket, if US SC overrules VA SC election voting issue, the State SC could still strike it down based on the language by hearing the language lawsuit immediately.
The language in the referendum is a separate lawsuit but was referenced in judges opinion but not as a factor in this decision. So a different hearing would create a new opportunity to strike it down again.
Here is the language:
Should the Constitution of Virginia be amended to allow the General Assembly to temporarily adopt new congressional districts to restore fairness in the upcoming elections, while ensuring Virginia's standard redistricting process resumes for all future redistricting after the 2030 census?
“Restore fairness in the upcoming elections” is a crazy statement to put on a state bill.
It’s not a neutral statement by any means, and turns the referendum into a leading question that could influence the voter’s vote.
So if the case is heard, it’s probably going to be ruled as non-constitutional since VA constitution states that statutes require NEUTRAL, plain-English explanation.
The referendum question isn’t neutral.
And the US Supreme Court has no jurisdiction to overturn the state Supreme Court if they make a ruling on the ballot text language issue.
So that’s game, set, match!

You cheered Virginia going from 6-5 to 10-1 but cried when it went back to 6-5.
Wasting $18 million and thousands of man-hours to crush the souls of liberals nationally was a stroke of genius.
Southern Blacks could vote Republican to make their vote count.
Or move to blue states where their vote would count and solidify senate seats, governor admins and guarantee electoral votes for President.
Or in 2016, Blacks could have voted, instead of unconditionally surrendering their rights for the next 44 years.
If unconditionally surrendered is too strong, it’s like they were waiting on the sidelines expecting someone else to show up and fight for their rights for them.

Black turnout was under 58% for Kamala and 800k black men switched vote from Biden 2020 to Trump 2024.
It was roughly a 3.6 million negative vote swing against Kamala 2024 vs Biden 2020.
For the record, I have seen that 65% stat quoted in a couple publications but they aren’t correct.

If you want Dems then move to blue states.

Jews in America prefer Platner over Dem Party.
Don’t know why Blacks would be against Platner?
Why are you being racist?
Identity politics much?
Replying to @trouble_man90
You don’t know how leftists voted, you only know their criticisms.
We have factual data that blacks didn’t show for Hillary in 2016
Every racial demographic had them record turnout in 2016, except one - blacks (men) whose turnout dropped 7%.
