7 Things: Alabama ready to go hard on redistricting, another loser supports Doug Jones, defamation claims fly in multiple races, and more…

7. A new “Animal Farm” adaptation starring Andy Serkis and Seth Rogan is being praised by paid-for conservative influencers as a great thing for families, but this is not true to the source material and should be avoided, watch the original or read the book.

6. Auburn University’s counseling program always pushed a negative light on white males, according to a new report, one student said, “No matter what module we were in, whether it was on racism, feminism, transgenderism, ageism, it always shined a negative light on white males.”

5. Attacks are flying, defamation claims are too, Alabama Attorney General candidate Jay Mitchell demanded a retraction from Katherine Robertson for what he called “bald-faced lies” and defamatory claims, while similar accusations are flying in the HD20 race between State Representative James Lomax and former U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Huntsville).

4. Never-going-to-be-Georgia Governor Stacey Abrams told Alabama sorority sisters in Birmingham that democracy is under attack, which is her only message as she backs Doug Jones, the cowardly caretaker former junior senator in an ill-fitting suit, who looks like he just woke up and stole his shoes from a homeless person, and who will never be governor.

3. President Donald Trump is probably right; maybe it is treason, as the U.S. will begin escorting ships in the Strait of Hormuz, calling it the right move as the Iran war continues with economic pressures and Senate Democrats pushing war powers resolutions amid the currently paused conflict.

2. States are ready to move on redistricting after a recent Supreme Court ruling, and if the war goes national, according to FiveThirtyEight’s most aggressive redistricting simulation, “[t]he House would end up with 262 Republican seats to 173 Democratic seats.”

1. Maybe Alabama will get it done after Alabama Governor Kay Ivey officially called a special session to redraw the state’s congressional maps – and maybe they should move to adopt the Ainsworth map – while lazy, pathetic critics are bringing up Ivey’s former blackface and suggesting it is not fair to draw districts without focusing on race.
