The Texas Democrats who left the state are heroes standing up against Trump's corrupt attempt to rig the system through racist gerrymandering that silences Black and Latino voters. Abbott has no real authority to remove them and this is just political theater.
There's a 19.7% chance that Republicans will control both houses of the U.S. Congress following the 2026 midterm elections, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
