Democrats are searching for a leader to take on President Trump. Gov. Gavin Newsom embraced that role with new online trolling and a proposed gerrymander to counter a GOP power play in Texas.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom used his Democratic supermajority to push a new congressional map that favors Democrats in an effort to nullify the expected new map from Texas.

California’s Democratic-controlled legislature passed a trio of bills aimed at redrawing the state’s congressional map. The move, designed to send five more Democrats to Congress, is a direct response to Texas doing the same thing with Republican seats.
