Rep. Pat Fallon: 'Democrats Better Find A Mirror, They're Gerrymandering Junkies'

Posted • August 5, 2025: Texas Democrats have fled the state. They don’t want to give the state legislature a quorum to pass a congressional map that favors Republicans. So, they decided to seek refuge in Illinois, a gerrymandered state in the country. The irony is almost as bad as the MLB moving the All-Star game out of Atlanta in 2021 over Georgia’s voter integrity laws. The game was held in Colorado that year, a state with voter ID laws. Gerrymandering did not begin under Donald Trump, which seems to ooze from all the whining and shouting from Democrats about the Texas map. The good news is that this isn’t going to become a thing like Wendy Davis’ abortion filibuster. No one cares about this, and the messaging has already cooked Democrats, as even the legacy media thinks they fled. These communication breakdowns happen when you lack a plan, a clear message, or a leader. As a Jersey native, I lived under the yoke of gerrymandering—look at some of these districts.

And Democrat Gov. Phil Murphy even tossed a redistricting threat aimed at Republicans, as if that’s shocking. My man, you can say that. It has been done elsewhere. Both parties do it. What am I missing here, but it's application in the Garden State—not going to happen: Any attempt at changing the Garden State's Congressional boundaries will face a major legal roadblock, Dan Cassino, professor of government and politics at Fairleigh Dickinson University, told Newsweek. "The New Jersey Constitution explicitly forbids a mid-decade redistricting, unless the state's districts are struck down by a court, so the odds of New Jersey redistricting are slim to none," Cassino said. —— In Illinois, the state where these Texas cowards fled to fight an unfair map, they redistricted their maps, with the intent of squeezing out Republicans. I don’t think any state representatives fled to prevent that map from being made official, because Republicans aren’t insane. […]

California even redrew its maps in 2021 to help Democrats keep their then-majority on the Hill. […] The problem for Democrats is that there aren’t enough states to gerrymander. They’re tapped out, with deportations increasing, and blue states poised to lose electoral votes due to declining populations, the lifeblood of the Democratic Party is being drained, and they don’t know what to do. It’s what happens when you think demography is destiny. It’s not. The five new districts the GOP would supposedly claim with Texas’ new map are majority Hispanic. 🚨 Rep Fallon: "When [Dems] talk about gerrymandering, they better find a mirror." In the top 5 blue states, Dem control 79% of seats. In the red top 5 red states, Republicans control 69% of seats. BUT GOP candidates for Congress in 24' got 5 MILLION more votes than Dem candidates. The GOP SHOULD have 230-233 seats in the house, but they only have 220. Democrats are the gerrymandering junkies. (…)
