More Big Moves by the GOP to Hold the House

 Speaker Johnson is expressing confidence that the GOP will increase its majority in the House of Representatives by 2026. This outlook is linked to recent redistricting plans, particularly in Texas, which could significantly alter the balance of power.

• Texas Redistricting: Recently announced redistricting in Texas could shift the House delegation from 25 Republicans and 13 Democrats to 30 Republicans and 8 Democrats, potentially netting the GOP 5 more seats if trends with Hispanic voters continue favorably.

• Other States: Similar redistricting efforts are anticipated in Ohio, Indiana, Georgia, Kansas, Missouri, New Hampshire, and Florida. Florida, however, may not see as significant a change as Texas.

• Democratic Response: Democrats are criticizing the redistricting as gerrymandering, but the new Texas maps appear to be more logically drawn and include more Hispanic majority districts. Many Democratic-led states have also implemented gerrymandering.

• Historical Context: GOP strategies are reminiscent of successful past redistricting efforts, particularly 2002, which allowed the majority party to defy typical mid-term losses.

• GOP Strategy: The GOP is focusing on:

• Redistricting to gain seats.

• Minimizing retirements by influencing candidates' decisions.

• Increased spending on campaigns.

• Supporting incumbents to prevent primary challengers.

• Aggressively fundraising and recruiting.

• Focusing on specific issues such as impeachment.

• Positive Economic Factors: The U. S. economy's growth at a rate of 3% and lack of involvement in prolonged conflicts could hinder a Democratic resurgence.

• Public Perception of Trump: Trump's approval ratings show some resilience, which may not align with the negative narratives from left-leaning polls. The Democrats continue to struggle with public perception and internal discord.

• Elon Musk's Shift: Musk has transitioned from challenging both parties to financially supporting GOP super PACs, indicating a strategic move towards the Republican side.

The GOP is strategically positioned to maintain or expand its control in the House by capitalizing on redistricting and current political dynamics. Johnson's optimism reflects a calculated approach to leverage these factors leading into the 2026 elections. The necessity for Republicans is to limit losses to retain their majority while taking advantage of favorable developments and ongoing Democratic discontent.

It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...
