In four part harmony. The story of the Texas fleabaggers, the Democrat lawmakers who fled the state to deny the Republicans a quorum that they expect to use to redistrict the state, and add 5 Republican districts is starting to get fun. At RedState, Greg Abbott Drops Bombshell on TX Dems Who Fled State: Return Today or Be Removed, Face Felony Charges and Sister Toldja thinks Texas Democrats Make an Even Dumber Move, and You Just Have to Laugh at This Point, by meeting with Kathy Hochul, Governor of one of the more heavily gerrymandered states. "Because if there is a state in this country that stands up for "our democracy" and voters, it's New York, where they've worked to contain Republican representation to a very bare minimum even after getting slapped down." Greg Price @greg_price11 "So Texas Democrats have decided to flee their state to protest "partisan gerrymandering." Half of them are currently in Illinois, the most gerrymandered state in the country. The other half are in New York, where Democrats redrew the congressional maps in their favor after Republicans gained seats in 2022." Sarah Arnold at TownHall reports Texas House Approves Arrest Warrants for Democrats Who Fled to Illinois to Block Redistricting Vote. From Ace, Texas Democrats Flee the State to Block Redistricting; Greg Abbott Says That the State Constitution Allows Him to Declare Their Seats Forfeited "I don't know why they didn't fix this the past twenty times the Democrats did this. They do this every time there's a major vote, and we just keep letting them," and Democrats Blow Off Governor Abbott's 3 PM (Central) Deadline to Return to Work, "Governor Abbott escalated his threat: He now says that any of the fleebaggers who do not return to Texas by 3pm central (4pm east coast time) will face criminal felony charges. But the more immediate threat is to strip them of the offices they have abandoned." Chris Queen at PJM, Texas House Votes to Issue Arrest Warrants for Rogue Democrats. But at Althouse, "[Governor Greg] Abbott could not remove [the quorum-avoidant Democratic] lawmakers on his own and would need the courts to go along with his plan..." ""... according to University of Notre Dame law professor Derek Muller." "Samuel Issacharoff, a professor at New York University School of Law who has observed Texas redistricting battles for more than 30 years, said the governor’s authority to order legislators to be arrested or to remove them from office, 'is at best, unclear.'" And law professors are always right, and never biased, am I right. No they probably can't, but it would be fun to try it this once. Maybe the Texas courts will let them. PJM's Matt Margolis notices Even CNN Knows That Illinois Was the Dumbest Place for Texas Democrats to Flee. Twitchy, WOOF! Even This CNN Journo Asks If TX Dems Realize How BAD It Looks for Them to Flee to Gerrymandered IL. Coddled Affluent Professional @feelsdesperate "Hold on, 5 minutes ago weren’t ‘mainstream libs’ trying to add two new states, pack the courts, get rid of the filibuster, and dismantle the EC?" Quote Will Stancil @whstancil," Sort of the core principle of democracy is that you can’t get to 51% and then change the rules so you win every election forever. It’s not that the founding fathers and prior presidents didn’t think of this obvious strategy. But Trump has decided to go for it, he doesn’t care." The Babylon Bee @TheBabylonBee, "Texas Begins Construction On Northern Border Wall To Keep Democrat Lawmakers From Returning https://buff.ly/p3jruEN."
Hat Hair's Capt. Ed watches CNN: Let's Face It, Trump Is the Most Influential President This Century -- And More.

PJM's Stephen Kruiser likens it to the Dems Keep Bringing a Wiffle Ball Bat to Trump's Game of Hardball. At NewsBusters, New York Magazine Grumbles that Media Epstein Overkill is Ineffective. "However, since you mentioned Russiagate, it seems that now the media focus on Epstein primarily seems to be a desperate attempt to avoid covering the new documented revelations by DNI Tulsi Gabbard about Russiagate." At RCP, the Unsinkable Mollie Hemingway: The Way Media Is Using Epstein To Avoid Covering Obama's Complicity In Russia Hoax Is Very Suspicious.

Fire them all." I don't know if she cooked the books, but under her, the program was consistently wrong. But I'll bet she had a great DEI program. Althouse, "Last weeks Job’s Report was RIGGED, just like the numbers prior to the Presidential Election were Rigged. That’s why, in both cases..." ""... there was massive, record setting revisions, in favor of the Radical Left Democrats. Those big adjustments were made to cover up, and level out, the FAKE political numbers that were CONCOCTED in order to make a great Republican Success look less stellar!!! I will pick an exceptional replacement. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAGA!" Writes Trump, at Truth Social. The NYT presentation of this news story is: "Trump to Appoint New Top Labor Official Within Days/President Trump fired the commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday after the agency released dour monthly jobs data.""
Capt. Ed watches Zeldin Quickly Dismantles CNN Narrative on Climate Change, EPA: Gone in 90 Seconds. Francis Menton, the Manhattan Contrarian looks at the new Department Of Energy Report On The Impacts Of Greenhouse Gas Emissions. "The Report is attributed to something called the “Climate Working Group,” consisting of five prominent members of the climate skeptic community: John Christy, Judith Curry, Steven Koonin, Ross McKitrick, and Roy Spencer. Full disclosure: I know four of the five (Judith Curry is the exception), and consider two of them friends." Sarah Anderson at PJM, sees Biden Put This Harmless Mechanic In Prison. Now, Troy Lake Is Asking Trump for Help. "Troy was helping truckers by removing Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-mandated emissions systems that were preventing their trucks from operating correctly."

Col. Rob Maness at TownHall, DOJ Just Dealt China a Crushing Blow. Booker and Warren Hate It. "The DOJ recently greenlit the HPE-Juniper telecom merger, which may create a company big and strong enough to finally end the reign of terror of Huawei, the Chinese Communist Party-backed tech giant whose goal is global domination of everything from 5G to AI and enterprise networking." They just hate American businesses.
