Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.

Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
With dems having made gerrymanding harder in blue states, this just means a permanent republican bias in the house (even more biased than before).
Reminder that we've been here before, but worse. This too shall pass, be diligent.
If only a little gerrymandering were the only thing "here" consisted of.
What a joke. Ok guys enough. The lunatics are running the asylum. Time to take away the keys
It's crazy to think Florida used to be a swing state.
The number of republicans that have moved here is huge. All my trans friends and most of my queer friends have left the state.
It also doesn't help that the Florida Democratic party is even more of a dumpster fire than the national party. They even ran our former Republican governor as our Democrat cannidate for governor.
Fox News is a gateway drug.
Fox News is a plague on our society
Lies are apparently the gateway to cruelty.
No question
Propaganda is effective. Especially when there is no counter to its spread for decades.
The boomer snow birds have taken over. Why won't they just die already?
Gen-X snowbirds are right behind them. Florida is the go to retirement location for fixed income “taxes are too damn high” crowd who are losing their internal heat generating abilities. The same wing of the Millennials will gravitate down there, too. And so on.
People who hate the most live the longest
I hate this fucking place.
