WE’VE DONE NOTHING AND… yall know the rest of it.
I would say the line but I forgot how it goes and I’m all out of ideas.

Texas Dems conditioned their return on a promise by California to similarly redraw their districts in favor of their own party.
Politely requesting a source on that being the actual claim of victory because that’s absolutely unhinged. If was the last thing on the whiteboard then it was the only thing and everyone regretted it was written.
“California” can’t promise shit. All they can do (and this is Newsom’s plan) is to put on the ballot in November for California to eliminate their independent board that draws the district map. No idea if that would pass or not but it would be up to California voters, not the governor or Democratic Party.
Okay so…. Why did they go back to Texas? Why are they sleeping in the capital building? What the fuck is going on? Is it as dumb as it seems? Just stay away. If they try to have you escorted tell them to fuck off and leave. I don’t get it.
