Texas Dems Threaten GOP: Drop Maps or Epstein Files, Pick One
Texas Democrats are pulling every political stunt short of karaoke night to block Republican redistricting — but only if the Trump administration coughs up all the Jeffrey Epstein files. Led by Houston's Rep. Gene Wu, who insists 'This amendment forces Republicans to choose between their loyalty to Trump and their obligation to expose sexual predators,' the move is a bold Hail Mary destined to fail in the GOP-controlled chamber. Meanwhile, Trump's Justice Department assures us Epstein wasn’t murdered, blackmailing, or running a LeCarré spy novel.

(1 of 3)Texas Dems demand GOP swap redistricting maps for Epstein receipts like a high-stakes Craigslist trade. Spoiler: GOP isn’t biting, because loyalty to Trump > exposing sex predators apparently.
If loyalty to Trump was a fruit, TX GOP just declared it the official fruit salad of ignoring Epstein drama while redrawing power maps.
Watching Texas Dems block maps until Epstein files drop is like waiting for your group chat to stop ghosting you—fun, futile, and full of tea.
