Newsom Tells Donald “TACO” Trump His Time’s Up In All-Caps Message On Redistricting Fight
Governor Newsom threatens legal countermeasures to GOP redistricting in Texas aiming to influence 2026 elections and plans to redraw California maps favoring Democrats, officials said.
- On Tuesday, California Gov. Gavin Newsom told President Donald Trump he missed the deadline to abandon 'illegal crooked maps' and threatened legal counter-strikes.
- Two weeks ago, Trump ordered Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to find him five congressional seats through a mid-decade hyper-partisan gerrymander.
- Mirroring Trump’s tactics, Newsom’s press office fired off all-caps alerts on X, ending each with 'Thank you for your attention to this matter!'
- Newsom warned this showdown could trigger a national redistricting 'arms race' and fueled debate over whether Democrats sacrifice their moral high ground on fair maps.
- Newsom plans to place a redistricting measure on the November ballot to boost Democratic-leaning districts, as Trump faces the prospect of losing control of the House of Representatives next year.
