So:
-KAG released;
-Grand jury tells Trump's DOJ to pound sand in 3rd Tish James indictment; and
-Majority of GOP senators in Indiana reject Trump's extreme gerrymander.
That's quite a day.

The thing is, *if* Dems show up to vote like they have been in Virginia, New Jersey, and special elections this year, it'll partially neutralize neutralize the Texas gerrymander -- and the rest of it will be more than offset by the redraws in California and maybe Virginia.

Seems like a bunch of the GOP senators got tired of the threats and wanted to deliver a clear "f*** off* message to Trump and his goons.

That's not just a loss for Trump. 21 of the 40 R senators joined the 10 D senators to vote against the new map. Looks like the threats by Trump & his goons backfired bigly.
Threaten people enough & eventually even some of the ones who might've been persuadable will dig in & tell you to f*** off.
