... and the GOP loves a good filibuster. He has no power to do anything. If those Democrats are acting against their constituents' interests, they'd be voted out next year. And not one will be. They lost this argument once before during Rick Perry's term. And then Democrats only went to New Mexico as guests of the NM Governor.

We Texas Democrats are enjoying the messy divorce that he's currently going through with his wife---she says she's doing it, at long last, for "biblical" reasons, while he's begging for public restraint over it. Hey, political revenge is where you find it...

If it's not in Texas law or state constitution, would courts grant that?

They may threaten but if they had any sense, they wouldn't go there. But Repukes have no sense so anything is possible.

This isn't a federal issue.

They're a bunch of GOP ass lickers.

Theoretically, the case should go to a District Judge where the representative resides. But this supreme court will do whatever. They're worse than SCROTUS.

Who fled to avoid a vote on releasing the Epstein Files back in mid July?

Talk about fair play!

Then I heard the FBI was going to arrest them. What happened with all that? Bullshit of course. As is this.

But I don't think the potential 5 seat pickup in Tejas will matter. As the economy continues to buckle and god knows what other calamities await us, those 5 seats, if they Repukes can even win them, may be a drop of water compared to the wave of resentment directed at the regime.

What does worry me is seating new House Dems in 2027. There will be free and fair elections in CA, NY and elsewhere. But will the regime call those elections "fraudulent" and pressure SCOTUS to reverse Powell v. McCormack, giving Jebus Johnson the ability to not seat them?

That would cause a shit storm of galactic proportions and might be the straw that drives some Blue states to seriously consider separation. And before you go on and on about "there's no legal bases for secession" explain to me how legal means anything in this dystopian version of America. Legal appears to be anything you can get away with.

for the nearest republican who supports legislation to harm them and make them poorer.

1) Racism
2) Sexism
3) Generational Stupidity
4) Garbage in = Garbage out. Right wing disinformation, Christo Fascism, and a sea of lies such as global warming
isn’t real, medical science isn’t real, and the danger of a trans girl playing on her high school softball team.

Simple answer is what they have to sell to the American people is highly unpopular with the majority of
Americans. In Ohio the Congressional races are over before the 1st vote is cast.

The US supreme court gets this. (i know it's the Texas SC now} We'll see how this goes from NO WAY this can happen, to the Dems. being removed.

2030.
Then appeal away.
The Trump response.

in the Texas flag is actually a review!
