Tyranny is Tyranny no matter what letter is next to your name
People outside of Texas don’t get the disdain for Governor Abbott. He comes across as representing the people and the GOP well. However, he continues to operate in opposition to the Constitution. Whether the Politian is democrat or republican and no matter which side of the aisle you align with, we must call a spade a spade. Tyranny is tyranny no matter which side of the aisle you are on.
In the case in point here, Governor Abbott instructed a special session of the Texas legislature to redraw district lines. It appears this can and should only be done during regular sessions, not special sessions. So it will be interesting to see how this plays out in court.
