At Trump’s request, Texas jammed through a hyper-gerrymandered map to steal five House seats. California is fighting back with Proposition 50 — which I urge Californians to vote YES on. And as other Republican states follow Trump's orders, Democratic states must counteract.

Gavin Newsom wants to steal FIVE Republican House seats. We already have Democrat-gerrymandered districts. Now Newsom wants ultra-rigged districts. His scheme is illegal. If he goes ahead I will seek an injunction to block it. As governor I will restore independent districting and fair representation. That would mean an extra TWELVE House seats for Republicans from California.

Right now California has totally gerrymandered districts. With fair representation Republicans would have another TWELVE House seats. Gavin Newsom's BS about "responding to Texas" is a complete lie. Finally, Republicans are fighting back against CALIFORNIA'S gerrymandering!

Texas House Democrats broke quorum with 2 goals: ✅ Kill the first Special Session ✅ Find partners in other states to neutralize Gov. Abbott's maps As of this morning, the House is adjourned and California is committed to act if they must. Soon, we’ll take this fight back to Texas — together.

Trump went to Texas to demand 5 House seats because he wants to control the House in 2026 — and on January 6 after the 2028 election. With our health care, our economic security and our very democracy at stake, California will not unilaterally disarm! We will meet fire with fire and Vote Yes on Prop 50. -NP

Stop trying to “fact check” things you don’t understand. “California can’t gain more seats because the House is capped at 435!” Cool story. Now google apportionment. If Cali’s population grows faster (even with illegals), it can steal seats from other states. The number doesn’t go up, California just gets a larger percentage of that 435.

I spoke out about taking on fraud, waste, and abuse in California and across all 50 states. I asked people in California to DM and share stories of fraud, waste, and inefficiency and credited The All-In Podcast for working with me on this initiative. I appreciate Rep. James Comer's openness to working on a bipartisan basis on tackling waste in all 50 states, Democrat or Republican. We must restore trust.

The real reason Democrats are afraid of gerrymandering. This breakdown ends the Democrat Party “This is why Democrats are so scared of gerrymandering. Because every blue state is already gerrymandered to the maximum possible extent. None of these states have a Republican congressperson: Massachusetts Rhode Island Vermont New Hampshire Hawaii New Mexico Connecticut Delaware These states have only ONE Republican congressperson: Maryland Oregon Maine and these states have 2-5: Colorado Minnesota Illinois Virginia New Jersey Which means the only states that they could gerrymander more to get rid of Republicans would be California and New York. Those are their only options. Whereas Republican states are not as gerrymandered, so they have tons of options and tons of places where they could do so right now. And if every Republican state starts gerrymandering, it adds up very quickly. Like Texas and Florida alone could add 10 plus seats. But when you factor in Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, and other smaller red states, Republicans could gain over 15 seats in the House. And Donald Trump is going to pursue this strategy, which is why JD Vance is in Indiana right now. Because Indiana could gerrymander to gain 2+ seats.“ By simply doing what Democrats have already done, the Democrat Party will no longer exist. This is why they are all losing their minds about gerrymandering

“States like Ohio, Texas and Florida already did partisan gerrymandering in 2021. They drew as many Republican seats as they could without being racist. And so what they are now doing with the second bite of the apple is drawing racist districts under the expectation that the supreme court will strike the racial discrimination prohibitions of the Voting Rights Act…It is the white house pushing these maps onto different states to try to steal as many seats as possible.” - Rep Dave Min on new gerrymandering pre-midterm

"It is all on the line — a bright line — in 2026." California Gov. Gavin Newsom addresses supporters after the projected passing of "Proposition 50." The state is projected to adopt a new congressional map that redraws five districts to be more Democratic-leaning — which could have major implications for the 2026 midterms.

California was the first to kick off the redistricting game—flipping 12 House seats. Now, Democrats are trying to blame Texas to distract from their own power grab and keep Republicans from gaining fair representation. California governor candidate Steve Hilton issues a warning to Gavin Newsom: If he tries to steal more seats, he'll take legal action to stop him: “It’s ridiculous to say that Texas started it, California started it. We could go further than what Texas is doing to give Republicans equal representation in the House of Representatives.” “Tomorrow I’m making an announcement that if Newsom tries to steal another five House seats, I will stop him. The legal arguments are on our side.”

19 states currently issues driver's licenses to non-citizens, with 15 of those 19 states engaging in automatic voter registration, which allows massive election fraud to occur with dirty voter rolls and millions of non-citizens voting. On top of that, states like California allow ANYONE to vote with something as simple as a gym membership. The Democrat Party does NOT care about your right to vote, or about you, they care about rigging and winning elections to stay in power to continue their massive fraud operations to steal your taxpayer dollars.
