Dems Claim Victory In Texas Redistricting Clash: 'Killed This Corrupt Special Session'
Texas Democrats are claiming victory over their Republican counterparts in their redistricting clash and could return to the state, according to a new report.
Concretely, ABC News detailed that lawmakers are planning on returning to the state if Republicans effectively adjourn the special session called to that end on Friday.
In a release published on Tuesday, Democrats said they "have killed this corrupt special session on behalf of Texas families, exactly what we said we'd do when we left the state."
However, a spokesperson later told the outlet that plans could change if the GOP changes its strategy over the next days.
"Gov. Greg Abbott said the session will adjourn on Friday if Democrats don't return by then"
Sounds like a trap. Adjourn, get everyone back, then "EMERGENCY SPECIAL SESSION!!"
Exactly what will happen, and with those warrants in affect, the Democrats won't be able to escape out of state this time. So for them to claim victory now is stupid. But its par for the course for Democrats. They only pretend to stand up and fight. Democrats are letting fascism run wild with no end in sight.
Coool cool cool.
What is your solution? What should Texas democrats be doing to directly stop this?
Do not split. They took action to raise awareness and delay this vote, risking arrest. You are posting online. It's not the Democrats' fault that Republicans have become the party of authoritarianism.
And they leave again... cest la vie. Hot wheels isn't some sort of mystical mastermind. Hell cobra comander had better plans with his weather dominator. Hot wheels is just a fascist who hates everyone who isn't him. And fuck him. He should roll out onto 35 and chill.
Unless it's a lure to get them back so they can be arrested and held pending the special session... Remember, established rules don't matter anymore.
Let Abbott and others reconvene to get all the corrupt people in one room. Then do the thing.
