It just wouldn’t be a day ending in “y” if Vox senior correspondent Ian Millhiser weren’t outraged about something. Today, it’s that old standby, that less populous states get the same number of senators as more populous states:
It's evil that Wyoming gets the same number of senators as California. And it never stops being bizarre that Americans just quietly live with this moral tragedy.

You do know the reasons why the Founders set it up that way, right?

He definitely does not

Of course he doesn’t. Ian fancies himself an expert on our Constitution but for some reason frequently forgets what’s actually in there — or why it’s in there.
Evil.
Because political majorities always do the right thing……. https://t.co/9NXWaBF55c

Ian should just come right out and say that only blue states should have senators.
Good to see you haven't lost that razor sharp mental edge during quarantine.

Garbage person at a garbage site has a garbage opinion. Quelle surprise.

In these uncertain times, it’s nice to know with certainty that Ian will provide us with galactically stupid takes.
