First domino in national #redistricting fight likely to fall with #Texas #GOP to vote on #rigged maps

The #Republican-controlled TX legislature is expected to pass a new congressional map creating 5 new winnable seats for the GOP.

The vote follows prodding by #Trump, eager to stave off a #midterm defeat depriving his *party* of control of the #US #House, & weeks of delays after dozens of Texas #Democratic state lawmakers fled the state in #protest.

Upcoming #midterm #elections
will be the most obscenely corrupt election in #U.S. history
ALL #Trump 'administration' #Department
from the Dep. of #Justice, the #FBI to the #MAGAGOP
to ALL #MAGAS-controlled #polling stations
(for every MAGA vote 100 Democrats votes will be erased)
ALL engaged in manipulating the election results
and remain in power in spite of the voters.

Sadly it will not be possible to prevent it
In #Dictatorships it is always like this
will be like this in #USA too.

Continued thread

In #Texas, #Democrats on Monday prevented their state House from moving forward, at least for now, with a redrawn congressional map sought by #Trump to shore up #Republicans’ 2026 #midterm prospects as his political standing falters.

In #California, Dems encouraged by Gov #GavinNewsom are considering new political maps that could slash 5 Republican-held #House seats …while bolstering Democratic incumbents in other battleground districts.

Democracy is on the line here in Texas. Kudos to these reps who are blocking the vote by heading to Chicago, NY, & Boston. 🇺🇸 🗽

Texas House Democrats flee to block GOP congressional map

The lawmakers’ absence means the lower chamber won’t have enough members present to function, stalling passage of a draft map Democrats have condemned as a political power grab.
