FBI Tracks Texas Democrats Like Reality Show Castaways
House Democrats are furious that the FBI is being used to play hide-and-seek with Texas Democrats who literally fled the state to 'stop Republicans from redrawing Texas' congressional maps.' In a letter, they warn this feels like 'an abuse of federal public safety resources for completely political purposes.' Led by Robert Garcia and friends, they're demanding to know if the DOJ sees these legislators as criminals or just skilled at ghosting. Meanwhile, Sen. John Cornyn insists law enforcement should investigate when 'Democrat state legislators abandon their post,' apparently turning political drama into a serious crime thriller.
