## Key points

- Opinion writers say Republican gerrymandering backfired.
- Hamas is blamed for damage to Gaza’s drainage infrastructure.
- Florida is investigating alleged foreign funding of the DSA.

## Summary

The article brings together five opinion commentaries on US politics and Gaza. They argue that Republican redistricting backfired, Hamas’s actions contributed to Gaza’s poor drainage and flooding, union election rules should be changed, Trump bears responsibility for Republican midterm losses, and Florida is investigating the Democratic Socialists of America over alleged foreign funding.

The piece says Republican map changes spread GOP voters too thin, while Democrats are now pursuing their own redistricting. It cites claims that Hamas repurposed water pipes for rockets and diverted aid towards tunnels; a union group’s study found 95 per cent of unionised workers had not voted for their union. It also reports that Florida’s attorney general is examining whether the DSA received tens of thousands of dollars from China and Cuba, potentially breaching a 2025 state law.
