Breaking News: The Texas attorney general asked the state Supreme Court to remove 13 Democratic legislators from office after they left the state to block the Republican-controlled Legislature from redrawing a congressional map to favor the GOP, a request by President Trump.
BEHOLD! ONE OF THE BIGGEST REASONS NYT WORKED TO PUT THE KKKRISTOFASCISTS IN POWER: ENDING THE DEMOCRACY THE OLIGARCHY FINDS SO INCONVENIENT. #BOYCOTTNYT
Trump is a coward afraid of a level playing field.
😡
Bring on the lawsuits.
Fascists doing Fascists' things.
Is this what the people of Texas want? Where are the people in all of this?
Can confirm that millions of us hate it in Texas. We are living in a hellscape. And many of us can’t afford to leave.
That was my first question as well. Are the people of Texas just going to watch this happen?!?! Our streets would explode if they tried that here.
No, some of us in Texas do not want this. Some of us in Texas oppose this.
Governor hot wheels sure loves to tongue punch President Taco’s fart box. Fucking pederasts every last one of them. He’s just mad that he can’t get up out of that chair to fuck children with his buddies.
Fuck. Texas. Republicans.
The Texas attorney general is a twat.
So the Texas Executive Branch is asking the Judicial Branch to interfere in the workings of the Legislative Branch so that it can rubber stamp the demands of the President of the US to redraw maps in an off-year to entrench partisan gerrymandering? So much for separation of powers & federalism.

More than 13 left the state - why does he only want those 13 gone??
Piece of 💩
Sounds very democratic…
Like fillibusters, such acts are intentional tools whose purpose is to restrain run-away juggernauts of tyranny of the majority.
The NYT could have noted that there is no legal authority to do this, that it’s a constitutionally protected tactic, but the NYT is a piece of shit
Making America fascist as quickly as possible
hey NYT--removing Dem legislators because they are protesting illegal gerrymandering===would be wildly corrupt. Why don't you point this out? or are you just a GOP propaganda organ?
Narrator: They were, in fact, a GOP-enabling organization.
Welp, here's the real test of Texas democracy. I can't believe I'm thinking what I'm thinking. How depressing.
Bris Cocaine quoted in the NYTimes like he's just a guy, what a world
No
Not a fascist wish at all.
Your AG is corrupt and is employed by Trump not by Texans
Lawless
Donald Trump has asked @nytimes.com editors to remove references to his desperate child-sex-crimes coverup from their website (or else).
Wow this summary is actually accurate: GOP are POS
What pos mean?
Pieces of 💩
If they had gone on vacation in Mexico, that would have been acceptable.
The US has turned into a bloody third world banana republic dictatorship. And citizens haven't even noticed yet.
Given the make up of the supreme Court, reasonable chance they go along with this. Where does this leave democracy in the US and mid terms starts to look a lot more problematic.
