To be clear, the lawsuit I filed today seeks relief directly from the Supreme Court based on authority of the Texas Constitution, Section 22 of the Government Code & Supreme Court precedent. I am not seeking relief from a trial court under Chapter 66 of the Civil Practice &

Bomb threat: Dems were ordered to evacuate their hotel in an intercom alert warning of a bomb threat around 7:30, Rep. Bucy tells me. They just got the all clear to return. Bucy quick to blame the rhetoric from state Rs: “Some zealot acting on behalf of Ken Paxton’s threats”

This morning, a threat was made against the safety of the members of the Texas House Democratic Caucus. We are safe, we are secure, and we are undeterred. We are grateful for Governor Pritzker, local, and state law enforcement for their quick action to ensure our safety. #txlege

A bomb threat this morning forced an evacuation—because of dangerous republican rhetoric. As a former human trafficking prosecutor, I've faced threats before, but never from the Governor or President Trump. Paxton told his supporters to 'hunt us down'—but we won't be silenced.

State Senator Phil King is laying out SB 4, the proposed new congressional map in the Senate Congressional Redistricting Committee. It is the same proposal as in the House. King says his objectives with the map are to create more Republican seats and more compact districts.

.Texas State Senator Borris L. Miles gets worked up when Senator Bryan Hughes stressed the point that the Massachusetts delegation is entirely Democrat: “Dammit, this is Texas. We’re Texans. I really don’t give a shit what goes on in any other community — any other state.” #txlege

Sen. King again says that his understanding is that the National Republican Redistricting Trust was involved in drawing this #txlege map, like it did with the current maps adopted in 2021. Rep. Hunter was careful last week not to mention their involvement in drawing this map,

🚨BREAKING: I've just launched an investigation into a Soros-funded PAC for unlawfully funding runaway Democrats. If Texas lawmakers are bowing to the Soros Slush Fund rather than the will of the voters, Texans deserve to know.

Gov. Gavin Newsom tells reporters (at unrelated presser) he wants California’s new congressional maps on a special election ballot, not just a Q about this proposed mid-decade redistricting. Again, all only if Texas goes through with its gerrymandered maps. #txlege #CALeg

NEW: Attorney General Ken Paxton is asking Illinois to arrest quorum-breaking TX House Dems. Paxton says Dems hope IL will "provide safe harbor... [but] the U.S. Constitution, federal statute, & the doctrine of comity between states demand otherwise." Filing: texasattorneygeneral.gov/sites/default/… #txlege

The FBI could investigate quorum-breaking Democrats for bribery and they could face real felony charges, Sen. Senator John Cornyn told me this evening. Gov. Abbott tells me he will call “special session after special session.” Stakes will continue to rise this week. More TODAY

“Democrats act like they're not going to come back as long as this is an issue. That means they’re not going to come back until like 2027 or 2028, because I'm going to call special session after special session.” Gov. Greg Abbott from the mansion exclusively NBC News tomorrow
