Pat talks to author and Union Attorney Robb Smith about the history of the Census, Redistricting, Apportionment, and Gerrymandering. Robb gives an in-depth understanding of where the census comes from, some of the pivotal court cases that have shaped the redistricting process, and why the Framers of the Constitution were afraid of true Democracy.

\\nIn the Open, Dan, Pat, and CMoney Burns couldn\'t help but talk about the MarkeyVerse group of 16 year olds making change through online campaigns - giving us hope that the kids will be alright. Also discussed: the implications of the the 2020 Census and Apportionment, and how it seems like we\'re headed for absolutely no accountability on the Jan 6 attack on the Capitol.
