Democrats are nothing if not a predictable bunch, and that's exactly what happened in the aftermath of Texas Republicans unveiling a proposed Congressional map that potentially would give more GOP representation in the U.S. House, but which still doesn't go as far as the notorious gerrymanders we've seen in blue states like Illinois.

In response, dozens of Texas state lawmakers fled the Lone Star state on Sunday in an effort to try and deny a quorum during the special session Gov. Greg Abbott (R) called. 

Hilariously, to prove a point about "democracy being at stake," they flew to Illinois and New York, two states where Democrats have taken gerrymandering to an art form over the years to not only preserve but also expand the number of Democrats from their respective states in Congress.

As we reported earlier, NY Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) held a presser Monday in a show of solidarity with the Texas Democrats who traveled to the Empire State.

"We won't sit on the sidelines while Republicans try to rig the system to give Donald Trump more unchecked power," Hochul proclaimed. "Texas Democrats are standing up for the future of our democracy, and I'm proud to stand with them in the fight against disenfranchisement."

Hochul said a few other things that raised some eyebrows as well, telling a reporter that she wouldn't be opposed to disbanding an independent redistricting commission previously approved by voters in 2014 because she was allegedly "tired of fighting this fight with my hand tied behind my back":

For one, the Empire State uses a redistricting commission to draw its maps, though they are subject to the state Legislature’s approval. A second issue is that any amendment to the state constitution requires it to be passed in two consecutive sessions before going before voters, meaning New York Democrats wouldn’t be able to change their maps in time for the 2026 cycle.

Hochul acknowledged those constraints, saying, “it is not the timeline that I would have preferred.”

“We’re going to also look at litigation strategies,” Hochul said. “We’re in close conversations about options there, and so I would say this — we’re considering all options right now.”

Plus, imagine thinking that talking about "protecting democracy" while at the same time stating you want to dump a voter-approved independent redistricting commission even makes sense.

I mean, it's just downright comical how Democrats pretend they've been playing nice all this time and have been given no choice in the matter thanks to what Republicans in Texas are doing:

'nuff said.
