🚨 The GOP’s Audacious Midterm Strategy 🚨

The party plans to redistrict Ohio & Texas before the midterms, adding 7 GOP House seats.

Trump’s first 6 months? Historic.

But if Republicans lose the House in 2026, it all ends and we're back to impeachment.

Here’s the plan. 🧵

2/ Texas and Ohio are launching mid-decade redistricting—a rare and risky move.

But it’s necessary.

Democrats are already threatening lawsuits.

The White House is backing it.

The mission: Lock in the House.

3/ In Texas, Gov. Greg Abbott called a special session starting July 21.

Republicans aim to turn a 25–12 map into 30–7.

CNN is already howling. They didn't howl when Democrats did it.

4/ Targets in Texas?

🔻 Rep. Henry Cuellar
🔻 Rep. Vicente Gonzalez
🔻 Possibly seats held by Al Green, Sylvia Garcia, and Marc Veasey

Even the vacant Houston seat is in play.

5/ In Ohio, a quirk in state law gives the GOP full control of the map. It must be redrawn before 2026.

Current map: 10R–5D
Expected map: 13R–2D

6/ Democrats are already threatening lawsuits.

Rep. Al Green: “We’ll sue.”
Rep. Lizzie Fletcher: “This is partisan abuse.”
The media? Calling it “distorting democracy.”

But here’s the truth: This is the system working, exactly as it always has.

7/ Trump’s second term is roaring:

✅ Border secure
✅ Prices down
✅ Deportations rising
✅ Budget surplus
✅ Big Beautiful Bill signed

But if Democrats win the House? Expect impeachment #3 and total obstruction.
