Adam Schiff Sounds the Alarm: Trump's Plot to Rig 2026 Starts in Texas - Liberal Lens [View all]
In a powerful and urgent speech, Congressman Adam Schiff calls out Donald Trump’s shocking push to redraw congressional maps in Texas — years before the next census. What’s at stake? The integrity of our elections, the future of fair representation, and whether voters still get to choose their leaders — or if politicians will get to choose their voters.
This isn’t just about redistricting. It’s about mid-decade gerrymandering, a rare and dangerous move that could set a precedent for chaos across the country. Schiff warns that Trump’s behind-the-scenes pressure is already influencing Texas lawmakers, pushing them toward a rushed special session to rewrite district lines early — a clear attempt to rig the 2026 midterms in his favor.
From threats to voting rights, to the manipulation of political power, to how redistricting really works — this video breaks down everything you need to know about Trump’s latest move, why it matters, and how it could impact states like California, New York, and Illinois.
If you care about democracy, fair elections, and protecting your vote, this is a must-watch. Learn what’s happening, how it could spread, and what can still be done to stop it.
