  1. You knew they were lying when they said they weren’t going to continue.

  5. I don’t see any realistic option other than challenging any new map in court.

  7. And the weak AF democrats roll over and let it happen even though they have the power to stop it

  8. Of the Democrats who left TX, how many of them are back at the TX Capitol now?

  9. Progressives need to stop unilaterally disarming the party on gerrymandering and campaign finance.

  10. “sorry about the collapse of democracy, but living in a hotel for a few months was just too much of an inconvenience. Maybe someone else will help.”

  11. LOL so all that “We’re gonna save democracy by being away” shit was all BS?

    Let’s hope the States that said they’d redistrict if the Rs did, weren’t also BSing (they are, they’re all spineless and just want money and power)

  12. This is straight-up partisan gerrymandering, folks. They’re openly rigging the system to steal more seats – it’s undemocratic and a slap in the face to Texas voters. This isn’t about representation; it’s about power grabs.

  13. What as the point of leaving to block the first sessions?

    Dems never go hard enough.
