An important point. If CA wants to redraw, we would need a special election because of our state constitution. We should be organizing that now.

It’s time to get ruthless🔥

If California holds a special election on redistricting, I’m voting “yes” for new maps. And I promise you I’m bringing friends and family with me to vote.

The Supreme Court already made it clear it’s fine with gerrymandering. So screw it. LFG.

Bo French is trying to get Fort Worth City Councilman Carlos Flores to switch parties and become a Republican. Who in their right mind would join a bigot like Bo French? #fortworthtexas

Chris Tackett @cjtackett.bsky.social · Jun 30

Imagine getting invited to a party only to watch the host get publicly thrashed by a lineup of leaders and elected officials.

You’d have to question the sanity of anyone who would even consider it (and I’m not saying Flores is considering)

At this point, it’s nothing but a 🎪

From the email:

An Invitation to Councilman Carlos Flores
We are making a public invitation to Fort Worth City Councilman Carlos Flores to switch parties from Democrat to Republican. Now is the time.
Should Councilman Flores switch parties, he will be greeted as a hero, both by his constituents and by the Republican Party. He would follow in the footsteps of other Democrat politicians who have been successful by seeing the political shift their constituents have made in the Trump era.
The massive shift among Hispanic and Black voters to the Republican Party has prompted figures like Dallas Mayor Eric Adams, State Representative Ryan Guillen, and Webb County Judge Tano Tijerina to switch parties. They didn't do this for personal reasons, but because they knew it was the best way to them to serve those they represent. We hope and believe that Councilman Flores will do the same.
In the 2024 election, we saw an unprecedented shift in South Texas, where a majority of the Hispanic-majority counties voted Republican. Councilman Flores' district is a heavily Hispanic part of Fort Worth
It should be noted that Flores also aligns ideologically with the Republican Party. He does not belong with the Democrats. As a strong supporter of our police and firefighters, as well as law and order, there is simply no way for him to identify as a Democrat. He is a common-sense politician, who does not side with the transgender agenda, the transitioning of children, or illegal immigration. Such a politician is not welcome in the radical Democrat Party. He belongs on our side.
This move would also cement Flores' legacy as having made one of the most consequential political decisions for the good of Fort Worth and for the good of our County.
Should Flores switch parties and work with the Republicans, we would have majority control of the Fort Worth City Council.
