Gotta admit I'm a bit surprised that Burrows, dems and RINOs, the unholy trinity, let this see the light of day, but here you go-

The devil is in the details, and of course federal judge will enjoin in 3, 2, 1, but the article seems to be about the Trump plan.

Interesting. I guess Speaker Burrows knew he would be put on national blast by Trump if this didn't move forward.

Probably accurate. The racket only survives in the general darkness: if most (R) voters were aware of what goes on, they'd be primed to deliver a primary blood bath.

Yeah, Burrows is a politician above everything else and knew better than to cross Trump.

Glad he got it done but still hope he gets primaried along with all his RINO comrades in 2026.

Not worried about the courts. 5th circuit will overrule any shenanigans

Apparently Florida is preparing to follow suit.

Rep. Jimmy Patronis (R-Fla.) came out in favor of redistricting in a post on social platform X, writing that "Texas can do it, the Free State of Florida can do it 10X better."

I'm not sure there is a lot of squeeze here- Florida Republicans already outnumber Dems in Congress 20-8.

Most of the rogue decisions are being reversed; the question is how long do they stand as Dems are moving to run out the clock. A 5th Circuit case may not last as long as a 1st, 4th or 9th Circuit case, but it will still gum up the works for a time.

Seems like we should be finding a federal judge to fix the Census Bureau mistakes in 2020 that cost republicans 12 seats.

This isn't getting enough attention.
