W/S 107 Hoover Criminal Gang

Also known as Selos or just 107 Hoovers, this South Central L.A. Hoover set been active since the mid-70s, reppin’ around 107th & Normandie. Known for their long-standing war with the Rollin’ 100s and other Crip sets, that beef made the area nicknamed “Death Alley” by the L.A. Times ’cause of how deep the violence runs. They beef with most Blocc and Neighborhood Crips but rock with other Hoover sets like 112HCG.

These days, the 107 Hoovers got expansion sets and affiliates in cities across the U.S., from Texas to the Midwest—spreading that orange flag far past L.A. County.

Rapper: Jap 5
Sentence: “You can tell he from the Selos, bro stay hollerin’ W/S 107 Hoover Criminal Gang—Hoovers everywhere now, not just Normandie.”

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
