the normally mild-mannered congressman lashed out at the state Supreme Court and said he would support impeaching the justices who imposed the map. The court is controlled by Democratic justices.

“They knew they had to rig it against me,” Costello said, calling the map “1,000 percent partisan” intended to “disguise” a Democratic gerrymander.

“This isn’t democracy, this is political corruption,” he said, predicting that a federal court would block the new map’s implementation.



Wow. That's some reaction.

He's a nice guy from my interactions with him. Last time I saw him in DC he looked like a shell of a human. It was very strange. Maybe he was just having a bad day, but it looked like he hadn't slept in three days.

He hasn't really represented is constituents over the past year. Time for him to go.

His district is now compromised almost entirely of the county he lives in. Must be hard it doesn't include random party is Berks and Lebanon to help push it red.

I don't think it's a coincidence. Mueller is targeting family members to use as leverage to get people to flip. He could flip on Manafort or even Manafort's daughter, who is a colleague of Khan. Mueller did this in the Enron scandal, going after family members, and he did it with Flynn.

Its so sad that they've tracked down people who were taken in by Russian trolls, who assess their being shamed as an FBI & "fake news" cabal to deflect from the school shooting that the FBI botched. Faced with proof, they deny, double down on being rightful patriots, and walk away. They know all the people who were involved, and whatever they did was patriotic. No russians!

that last bit sounds familiar.

New Dem pick-up in Trump country: Belcher (D) wins KY's #HD49 by 37%! via @adambeam

HD49 voted Trump 72%-23%, so a huge net swing of 86% compared to that. Yes, Belcher is a former Rep who barely lost re-election in 2016. Still, Dems get a net swing of 38% even compared to that.

"It removed Smucker and puts me in almost entirely in a new territory," Costello said. "I have great affection for Reading, my compassionate approach to immigration reform will be appreciated there."

CBN guy is out there on the Stump for Trump. billy Graham had a profound effect on DJT. Way back to when Billy would dine with Fred Trump.

Smell that? Smells like BS. Wasted no time politicizing Graham's death for the Devil.

PA06 has Chrissy Houlahan and Elizabeth Moro as Dems. I'm going the latter.
