The Democrats facing arrest have fled to block a vote that could sway the balance of power in Washington.

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”.

    I am saying your nation is past the point of the dems saving you.

    So what’s your REALISTIC suggestion? Lots of crying from you, not a lot of suggestions.

    Come on, the us is now a global pariah state.

    Hey bud, WHAT’S YOUR SUGGESTION?

    Sorry fix your shit

    SUGGESTION?

    Fuck your parties

    SUGGESTIONS PLEASE!!!

    I nailed you in your first comment. You are a whiny. little. bitch.

    I provided a realistic suggestion for how to fix this mess without violent revolution, because that is the absolute last resort (and it isn’t going to happen). And all you’ve managed to do in response is whine like a little bitch.

    You are not productive. You are not helpful. You have NO solutions. You are a waste of time and effort and only serve to add to the chaos.
