🚨 BREAKING: For months, we've demanded: Who paid to draw California's sneaky new Prop 50 maps?
Answer: Nancy Pelosi & Congressional Democrats. 🧵

2/ This should shock NO ONE. Back in 2010, Pelosi & her crew were the first to bankroll the effort to kill the independent redistricting commission. History repeats.
They hated losing control. Incumbents gonna incumbent.

3/ Fast-forward to 2025: Prop 50 claims it's just a "temporary" fix. But Pelosi's DCCC submitted the pro-Dem lines—drawn by her go-to guy, Paul Mitchell of Redistricting Partners.
4/ Don't buy Newsom's "temporary" spin. Congressional Dems despise the commission, it's why they fought it tooth-and-nail in 2010.
Prop 50? Step 1 to claw back power. Give 'em an inch (or a map), they'll take a mile (permanent control).

5/ Quick reality check: When's the last time Congressional Democrats launched a "temporary" program... and actually ended it as promised? Crickets.
As Milton Friedman so often said, Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program.
#VoteNoProp50
6/ Voters: Don't get played. Demand transparency. Vote NO on Prop 50.
Follow the money, it's leading straight back to Pelosi's playbook.
