BIG: Trump REDRAWS Texas Map To Stay In Power Forever? | 5 New Seats for Republicans Raise Alarms

Texas Republicans have redrawn congressional maps, aiming to add up to five new GOP seats and strengthen Trump’s slim House majority ahead of the 2026 midterms. This mid-decade redistricting—highly unusual outside the census cycle—turns Texas’ 38 seats into a national battleground.

Democrats in California and other states are proposing counter maps, sparking lawsuits over racial gerrymandering.

With a federal hearing set for August 2025, critics warn the move erodes trust in democracy, giving Trump a stronger legislative shield but no guarantee of long-term dominance.
