Texas Republicans have voted to track down and arrest dozens of Democratic legislators who have fled the state to block passage of a partisan redistricting plan.
The vote passed by 85 to 6, following Republican Governor Greg Abbott’s threat of bribery charges against the absent Democrats.
After the vote, the governor ordered state troopers “to locate, arrest, and return to the House chamber any member who has abandoned their duty to Texans”.
Outside Texas they don’t have jurisdiction…pure posturing by the Dictraitorship.
Bold of you to presume the Republicans care about the law. It would be really easy to just use ICE to take them to some camp in Texas.
The rule of Law is dead in the U.S.
I expect the first political execution before the end of the year
Bounty hunters are so hot right now
