Indiana Republicans … INDIANA REPUBLICANS!! … rejected a redistricting map that would have carved up the Gary and Indianapolis regions and guaranteed them 100% of Indiana’s congressional seats.

“The GOP-controlled state Senate on Thursday voted down 31 to 19 the map that would have gerrymandered two more safe red seats, imperiling the party’s chances at holding control of Congress next November.”

Excerpt from her article in The Atlantic:

Marco Rubio here, with an important announcement: No more Calibri in official State Department communications! Get out of here with your ungarnished lines and provocatively naked terminals! The Biden administration may have shot the serif*, switching from Times New Roman on the grounds that serif-less fonts such as Calibri are more accessible to readers with disabilities. That’s all over now.

* Emphasis mine. What a glorious pun.
