Trump Sues to Stop California Redistricting

The Trump administration moved Thursday to challenge California's effort to redraw the state's congressionalmaps ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, throwing the full weight of the Justice Department in the high-stakes battle over control the House of Representatives next year.

Comments

"The administration's involvement is a dramatic escalation in the legal challenge, which, if successful, could scramble Democrats' plan to push back against a nationwide effort by Republicans, at the behest of President Donald Trump, to boost the party's chance of holding on to their House majority through rare, mid-decade redistricting ploys across several states."'

Do what Lard Trump says, not what he does.

The redistricting in California was approved by 60% of the vote.

Why does the Trump admin want to negate what the voters approved?

Because Lewzer told them to.

It's kinda funny really... his DOJ is hemorrhaging lawyers; they don't have enough for current cases much less this frivolous BS, and no one wants to werk there.

And it looks like the Judge in the Comey and James cases is about to toss Trump's Pin Up Girl prosecutor as incompetent.

@#4 ... It's kinda funny really... ...

I'd tend to characterize it as "sad" rather than "funny."

Same reason Gavin, and the CA State Supreme courts did.

#4 if I was successful in navigating the road to and thru the bar, I would protect my reputation. Once you get known to be "flexible", it's all over.

It good that some have scruples. This won't last forever.
