Confirmed: Democrat Runaways to Return to Capital Now That Beto's Bribe Money Has Been Cut Off

I mentioned this as an update to a post last night but now it's confirmed.

Now that they have to pay for hotel and travel out of their own pockets, these Selfless Servants of Socialism have decided that all they really wanted to do was to "raise awareness about gerrymandering."

Well you did. Now the entire country knows that Democrats have gerrymandered all the states they control to the absolute limit and it's time for Republicans to do likewise.

ABC13 has confirmed with multiple sources that House Democrats will return to Texas.

Eyewitness News has not confirmed the date, but we do know that Democrats believe they've accomplished their mission by killing the first special session and by raising national awareness about the mid-decade redistricting effort.

It is unclear which day they will be in Austin at the Capitol, but they stress that they will push for Hill Country flooding relief to be the priority.

...

This comes as the House went another session without a quorum on Tuesday, with just 95 members present for the second day in a row. Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows said that assuming there is no quorum on Friday, the session will end, and a new one will begin.

Hours later, the Senate actually passed a new map that benefits Republicans ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. It's the same map that passed out of committee in the House and precipitated more than 50 House Democrats to break quorum.

Democrats in the Senate walked out in protest, but a quorum remained. Sources told ABC13 that Senate Democrats will not break quorum.
