But the idea that people are watching this happen, or at least people who vote like I do or have similar values...
to me are seeing this just as people running away from their job is ludicrous.
What they are seeing is the fact that Donald Trump called up Greg Abbott and redistricting is supposed to happen once every 10 years.
That's when the census happens.
He's saying, I want a mid-cycle redistrict because I only have a three seat majority and I need a bigger cushion.
So get me five more seats.
So Greg Abbott calls a special session, not about the flooding, not about what happened in Camp Mystic, but so that he can steal seats from Democrats so that Jazzy,
won't be able to have her seat any longer.
It's important to remind people that in 2021, there was a bill, the For the People Act, H.R.
1, and it would have banned all gerrymandering.
And every single Democrat voted for it, and every single Republican voted against it.
Republicans want it this way.
They want to use this to their advantage.
And of course, there are some states,
If you can do it, why wouldn't you get as many seats as possible?
But the way in which Abbott is going about this has made people, even like Eric Holder, who runs an organization that is fundamentally against this, change his tune because the California proposal, and Newsom has been out front on this as well, only has this happened for a few years.
You know what?
Our reporting, and thank you for including earlier the reporting by Tom Winter and Ken Delaney, who I work closely with, is that there isn't, you know, a damning new client list.
It's what was in Garrett's piece.
And that there aren't new allegations, at least regarding abusing young women against Donald Trump that are somehow, you know, being hidden here.
