00:00Indiana Republicans agree to redistrict.
00:03Map wars are heating up in solid red Indiana,
00:07with Donald J. Trump in the thick of it to protect the House majority,
00:10while redistricting, used by both parties, draws cries of attack on democracy
00:15for Republicans even as California scraps its non-partisan commission
00:20to glowing headlines about voter empowerment.
00:23An online claim alleges State Senator Michael Bohacek is blocking redistricting
00:27due to his wife allegedly receiving $1.5 million from Democrat repper Frank Mervon,
00:34while Indiana's GOP supermajority pushes a new map that could flip the 1st District red,
00:39and Trump calls out foot draggers, insisting this isn't a spectator sport.
00:44A post claims an Indiana GOP state senator told Trump no on 2026,
00:50redistricting over Trump's offensive slur and DUI incidents, though unverified,
00:55while state Senate leader Roderick Bray said support was lacking.
00:59But after Trump's rhino and primary problem warning,
01:03the Senate will reconvene December 8th to act on the House's map.
01:07Trump isn't asking for favors.
01:10He's demanding Republicans act like Republicans,
01:13with J.D. Vance making multiple trips as the White House sees Indiana as critical
01:17after 2018's flip, warning Governor Mike Braun to deliver votes
01:21or risk being the only Republican governor to fumble,
01:25with Braun now fully backing the push as essential to the MAGA agenda.
01:30Judicial intervention and Democratic legislative action,
01:33notably through California's Proposition 50,
01:36disrupted Republican redistricting efforts across several key states,
01:40shifting the electoral map leftward.
01:42Indiana matters because the tight House majority could decide key issues,
01:46and governs Braun, pushed by Trump, says he has enough House votes,
01:50just needs a few state senators, and promises,
01:53we'll get it done, calling it leveling the playing field.
01:57If you think this is just another legislative squabble, think again.
02:00It's a full-blown political chess match.
02:03And the GOP must lock it down now or risk another 2026 surprise,
02:08because Trump isn't in the mood to lose.
02:10And the GOP must want to lose.
