Texas Republicans just voted to track down and arrest Democratic lawmakers for fighting their gerrymandering effort. If Democrats re-enter Texas, they will be immediately detained.

This is absurd. If this is allowed, what would stop other state’s majority from voting to have the minority arrested for _insert any reason here_
Whelp….. there it is. Up to all blue states to immediately gerrymander everything to the greatest extent possible. It’s a war for democracy, can’t be trying to fight fair when this is the other side.
That’s a sign of a healthy democracy. /s
Democracy is effectively over.
Psychotic
Texas sucks now and forever
They will never have a quorum and nothing will get done!
How dumb are these people?
Or don’t they care about Texans, just the dear leader, Trump?
They were already frothing at the mouth, eager to strike, just waiting for any reason to target them, I’m sure.
wow. my family left Saddam Hussein’s Iraq for stuff like this.
I really do hate being from and living in Texas as someone left-leaning because of bs like this.
Watch Trump deploy the IL National Guard to get them
And that, kids, is how the Civil War of 2025 began.
All because the REPUBLICANS WANT TO CHEAT OUR VOTES!! RIDICULOUS!!!
What’s with the right and their obsession with authority?
Detaining opposition because they refuse to let you cheat at an election sounds like its official
Dems know the rules.
You can only leave town during a time of crisis, right Ted?
I thought they only hunted for women coming home after seeking necessary medical care.
Are we great again??? Just asking for a friend
Sounds like what Texas Dems did in 2003 during the Bush admin. It didn’t help them then so idk about now
How is this LEGAL?
Is this just slowly turning into a arrest all left leaning politicians now? Not far off I assume
RIP USA
Same shit happened in Wisconsin when Republicans went to war with unions. Fuck these election rigging cowards
