Texas Republicans voted to issue arrest warrants for Democrats who left the state to block the GOP’s congressional redistricting plan. Most of the Democrats fled to Illinois, where Gov. JB Pritzker (D) made it clear he won’t enforce the warrants.

Sure, Hot Wheels. THAT’S a brilliant way to ensure your opponents come running home to participate in your illegal power grab. Der Führer will be most pleased.

I and others have said it before but it bears repeating: Any idiot Yosemite Sam wannabe Texas state troopers who come to Illinois and try to kidnap anyone just might be heading back down I-57 in body bags. Illinois will bill Texas for the bullets. (And the body bags.)

Pritzker is the best governor the state of Illinois has ever had. The proof is how much Republicunts hate him.

Is this even a thing? Is it constitutional? Can you arrest someone for not doing their job? If so, I'm screwed.

Not legal.

Thank you. I keep thinking it can't possibly be legal and then I hear the governor and now the president up the ante.

This is the way. No more high ground, play by their rules. If they don't like them they will prevent their own bad actions by stopping democrats. Call their bluff

The Texas Constitution provides for breaking quorum as the final act against legislative malfeasance.

The suffering is real. The silence must end. Their voices matter. Truth matters. Watch "THE VICTIMS OF JAKUB JAHL IN AFRICA". Take action. Share their story

Fun fact: It's not illegal. There's no law that says it is.

I just read that the arrest warrants aren't valid outside of Texas. True?

True. And the arrest warrants are not legal in TX. Nothing in TX penal code.

Drama queens putting on a show for the president with no legal right to act on their threats. 97% of the citizens of Texas are black ,brown ,or Asian. They will rise up and fight for their voices to be heard !

An aspiring despot would send a coordinated snatch operation to bring them back against their will. Anyone think Trump is an aspiring despot?
