Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick was finally forced to cough up a $25,000 bounty to a progressive Democrat who caught Republicans committing voter fraud. In California, certified final results in last months' doomed GOP gubernatorial recall election underscore just how badly Republicans wasted $300 million in taxpayer dollars. Reports that Sen. Joe Manchin may be considering switching parties is a stark reminder that Democrats' razor-thin Senate majority can be flipped in an instant, killing any remaining hope of enacting President Biden's agenda -- which may be why Biden is not attacking Manchin publicly as many progressive voting rights activists have demanded.\\xa0 Republicans' ongoing assault on American democracy continues apace as they work to gerrymander their way into the House majority in 2022, and use that control to attempt to steal the 2024 Presidential election in a way they weren't prepared to do in 2020. Texas GOP lawmakers double down on extreme partisan gerrymandering in new legislative redistricting maps in the state legislature and Congress, stealing seats and representation from the state's surging non-white population. Illinois' Democratic-majority state legislature tries a very slightly gerrymandered new map.\\xa0 Plus Desi Doyen has our latest 'Green News Report.'"
