Monday’s vote was mostly symbolic as the warrants only apply within Texas state lines.
At least two-thirds of the 150-member state legislative body in Texas must be present to proceed with the vote. The quorum became unreachable after more than 50 Democratic lawmakers left the state.
Most of the Democrats fled to Illinois where the state’s Governor JB Pritzker said he was “going to do everything we can to protect every single one of them” amid arrest threats from Abbott.
The Democrats said they planned to stay away from Texas for two weeks until the end of a special legislative session.
Imagine how unprincipled you have to be to vote to arrest lawmakers because they won’t cooperate with your attempt to cheat in the next election because chrating is tge only hope you have of not losing.
These are tghe people in power, and they shouldn’t even be trusted to play a game of cards, much less to run a state.
Why do we let ourselves be pushed around by such scum?
To be fair, they cheated this way a lot in 2024. He and his minions also said they illegally cheated, I believe them.
Texas Democrat voters need to go en mass and walk their representatives as protectors back into the chambers as a show of force of the people’s power.
A General Strike is, at this point, the only other answer.
Regime whores turning on each other
Maybe these “Democrats” gonna start shilling peasant politics
