Two can play that game.

Stop talking and let’s go!
-
Do it! Now!! Don’t wait! New York, New Jersey, Washington, Illinois etc.!! We have to at least try to beat back the fascist Republicans.
-
No, we can’t. When both sides are blatantly cheating, then the “game” is meaningless. The “winner” is the one who cheats the most.
We cannot play with a cheater. If they don’t want to follow the agreed-upon rules for elections, then BYE!!!
-
The vote is coming in November! California, just DO it!
-
-
Just do it. The only reason we are in this whole horrible fucking mess is because the Guardians Of Pedophiles Has gerrymandered minority control of our congress. Blue states need to hit back. All of them.
-
And now New York. All blue states.
-
Yup. Fair is fair. Or more like "Unfair is unfair” Cheating is cheating. Both sides.
-
Other former California Governor weighs in.
-
We're gonna need more than one governor.
-
While you're at it, introduce House bills to:
Join North and South States as one, and East and West States as one. It's a trick GOP used for more representation, they are not really independent if they always are governed the same.
Statehood for Puerto Rico & DC Full voting & Representation.
-
YES! It’s no different than the other way. It would not hurt as many people!
-
Don’t suggest it. Just do it.
-
Newson needs to shut up and just do it
-
Rep. Jack Kimble of CA's 54th district is going to be quite surprised.
-
Yes!
-
Every blue state should start the process to do the same yet leave it to each governor to enforce it if red states continue to cheat voters of their voice.
-
Do it anyway. And make sure EVERYONE involved in handling the election is uncontaminared.
-
Not very well: CA's redistricting method is embedded in our Constitution. Residents would have to vote to amend the Constitution (something they DO sometimes do - all too often, IMO - but I sort of doubt they would do it this time).
-
💪👍
-
Play the game.
Texas already has their map drawn.
Play the game.
-
I mean ok what’s stopping you then?
-
This is not helping.
-
This is a very dangerous game. It'll cause a cascading back-and-forth between dem and magats until the number of reps is ridiculous. It will cause millions of voters to question if voting is even helpful at all. People will give up. I don't know how we solve this without war.
-
Do It Gavin!
-
He can. Quite easily.
-
SO DO IT!!!
-
It's about god damn time!
-
Don't suggest, don't threaten, don't hint
JUST DO IT!!!
-
Do it. Be proactive…don’t wait.
-
Good deal! Wish we had more Newsoms
-
I'm all for that!
-
I wish I could afford to live in California like my sister
-
Beyond time the Dems act and stay ahead of the cheatin Republicans. Beyond time they listen to their voters. Attack them.
-
Wish more states would stand up for what’s right
-
I’m here for it #govgavinnewsome
-
Im here for it
-
Good!
-
JUST DO IT!!!!!! JESUS FUCKING CHRIST MAN!!! PLAY THEIR GAME AND START WINNING AGAINST THEIR CHEATING GAMES!!!!!
-
I don’t need him to suggest it, just do it!
-
I'm happy that Dem leaders are finally seeing what game this is. They've been acting like this is a game with rules we have all agreed upon, when in reality the opponent has swept the pieces off the table, opened all the doors, and is now playing beer pong with the coyotes
-
I hope he does.
-
I have never been so ambivalent about a human in my life. lol. Love this.
-
Let’s Roll California!!
-
Good. And TEX-ASS can secede the USA until it gets its head on straight.
-
Good luck with that especially in the part of the state known as Jefferson
-
Do t!! Blow them off the map!!
-
Go get em Gav!
-
He still sucks
-
Please let it be true.
-
Yep….other blue states need to jump in too.
-
-
Yes!!!!!
-
If you live in California email Newsom today!
-
Why wait for what Texas is going to do?DO IT NOW! Democrats need to be on the offense. Just do it.
-
💯💥👍
-
Do it! I’m sick of this never ending story and slow slide into Authoritarianism. Do it! So, we can impeach all of them and reset our Democracy from top to bottom.
-
And he better And tRump kiss ass Polis better do the same for Colorado
-
@governor.ca.gov ACTION, not WORDS. REDISTRICT CA. You have laws that you need to change so get moving
-
That doesn't take into account the fact the Stupublicans will oppress the vote.
-
DO IT. DO IT DO IT FUCK TEXAS FUCK GOP FUCK TRUMP
-
I love Newsom’s approach!!
Dark Gavin is freakin fire!!🔥 🔥🔥
-
"BECAUSE HE'S BIG, B.I.G., AND HE'S BAD, B.A.D. AND HE'S BOSS, B.O. S. S. B.O. S. S. BOSS!
-
Do it anyways
-
Not a game but our democracy at work 😡 Democrats must respond like Gov. Newsom or we’ll lose our chance to save the country in 2026. I’ve changed my mind about the Democratic response because TX MAGA GOP and Dear Leader are so corrupt!
-
I hope he does
-
With the way Republicans have illegally gerrymandered to the max already Dems should have no problem doing it in all the blue states.
-
Just do it! They will wait until the last minute and do it and then Dems won't have time to do it before the election, so do it now!
-
Question answered! (Why aren’t blue states doing what TX is doing)
-
He won't do it. They just talk.
-
If we do win the house back and the sun hopefully at some point, we need to get some election laws and our election system changed one person one vote no matter where you are electoral college I think might need to go bye-bye
-
Good I’m sorry, but we have to fight fire with fire at this point. It is just too far gone not to so I’m glad he’s riding back and I hope New York does and any other state that is blue enough to do this.
-
Texas was already gerrymandered to hell. i'm not going to cry about Henry Cuellar losing his safe blue seat, but i surely hope some pubs wind up getting dummymandered out of theirs.
-
Why don’t we just secede like we always talked about
-
Amen 🙏🏼
-
Every vote should count correcting corruption with corruption IMO this WILL SCREW US ALL. We need to a US grid done in perfect equal squares for any real balance. Of course this is an idea from an exhausted person going to bed not knowing what a viable solution is. Fight fire with fire I guess.
-
-
Well, Abbott doesn't have a leg to stand on.
-
Probably Newsom does not need to do much
-
Good. I'm already going to be working to remove Young Kim if at all possible.
-
👏👏👏
-
Good
-
I don't want either party doing that, but the rules and laws no longer matter.
-
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
-
How is that even possible?
-
Newsome should do it anyway….all blue state governors should
-
I say Fucking Do It anyways!
-
Love it ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
-
Please!?! Don't let them have another red win, and we all sit back, watch and do nothing.
-
Thank you Gavin!!! Fuck em all!!!!
-
Just do it!!
-
They need to do this anyway. If the magats don't play by the rules, we shouldn't either
-
It’s time for the Dem’s to get just as crafty as the GOP. Get tough.
-
You go Gov.! Trump always messes with our economy which might not be so devastating if he actually knew anything about economics. He is an idiot!
-
Do it!
-
@governor.ca.gov I'm in. DO IT, Gov. Draw up the map, call the special election, let's f***in roll.
-
Do it. It may be the only way to preserve the rule of law.
-
THIS is the kind of fight we need rn. He should do it! Either way!
-
It is unfortunate...California's system should be the one emulated....
-
Do it Governor!
-
drump is a grifter. Newsom is a drop kicker.
-
Everybody has to play by the same rules
-
Do it!!!!!
-
Don't wait Gavin do it now!
-
Go for it!
-
That's right. Newsome is basically telling those fuckers in TX FAFO.
-
10 need to play at that game
-
Finally!…now carry it through…no more time for normally…the other side are corrupt, criminal fascists…old, not new, testament stuff….an eye for an eye.
-
Fight fire with fire 🔥
-
Forget “suggesting.” DO IT NOW! Gloves off!
-
I’ve always been one for playing by the rules of fairness. I’m done. They’ve stolen or rights, our liberty, and our future. They’re working on stealing the future of our children now. Fight fire with fire. Fight back before it’s all gone!! It’s time to fight the way they do.
-
The republican party is not playing by any rules of fairness, decency, or respect for majority will. It’s time to fight fire with fire.
-
Should do it regardless. No such thing as a good Republican.
-
Stop talking about it and do it!!
Negotiate after.
-
Electoral college will be bought and paid for
-
Way to go on the offensive 👏
-
All democrat governors need to do this now. Don't wait. Repair the system after the election.
-
Please do!
-
I hope he really does and it’s not just talk.
-
America must vote to replace the GOP representatives & senators, then 1. Vote to Impeach Trump 2. Try & convict him in Senate 3. Remove him from office 4. Demand resignation of all current Cabinet officers 5. Demand SCOTUS Thomas & Alito resign 6. Try & jail Trump on criminal charges of corruption.
-
Excellent!
-
-
Go Gavin
-
Got to love it! 💙💜🩵
-
Just one problem with that... it has to be voted on. So basically if the rethugs wait long enough, they will effectively prevent him from being able to.
-
Finally Dems!
-
He lost me a few months ago but the bastard got me back. We need fighters ! Welcome back brother. Fuck this fascist regime and fuck trump!
-
Nice plan to fight back against trump attempt to steal the next election.
-
Lets go Gavin, show me your powers.
Gavin for President in 2028.
I am willing to take 100 bullets for him man.
-
Sounds good to me.
-
Please start with D1 so Doug Lamalfa can go back to spending the money he grifted off the American taxpayer for the past decade. The man is worthless.
-
Do it regardless of what Texas does. See?
-
Ha! We’ll see your Texas and put California in play. Very nice.
-
PLEASE, do this!
-
Mathematically can't be done.
Even if you pooled all Republicans into a single district (the absolute limiting case), you would still have one red district.
-
I love a little hardball. Like holding back federal taxes.
-
-
fuck it! just do it! Lets all just fucking do it! Lets do it by population..... we have the numbers, and it should have been done all along
-
Do it! Time to fight back!
-
That’ll work.
-
DO. IT. NOW.
-
fuck yeah.
-
Perfect! A shot across the bow!
-
It’s not “if” but when.:(
-
Just do it FUCK TEXAS
-
I hate to say it, because gerrymandering is basically horrible, but...yeah, behind this 100%. Make GOP-held districts extinct in the state if they move forward with this. Enough is enough.
-
Do it. Never condoned cheating but Republicans deserve to go down in flames.
-
God, I love my Governor!!!
-
Quickly becoming the Dem leader. Gavin knows his shit!
-
It will be easy Example CA03 is reverse Gerrymander to create a R district.
-
Do it! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
-
JUST DO IT!
And NY and IL.
They want to cheat? We will show you how to gerrymander motherfuckers.
Pound them into dust.
-
Let’s do it!
-
Every blue state should do the same!
-
The sooner we salt the earth, the sooner we can rebuild.
-
And any other state with a Democrat governed.
-
It was theoretically even easier to do this in Illinois, by drawing all the districts as strips radiating outward from Chicago. Obviously, that would have offended the Dem legislature's sense of fair play, though the actual 14-3 split was still an improvement.
-
DO IT.
Seriously, we probably need to go more proactive. "Oh, you're considering it, are you? BOOM, we've already done it, good luck in your fucking worthless future endeavors." Maybe think twice before your next power grab for a change.
-
Please... do it. We don't have the luxury of time. Now. Please.
-
Do not mess with California! We chose the bear, and his name is Gavin.
-
That would be phenomenal!
-
And he should. We should support it.
Trump won’t stop until our foot is on his throat. Congress could stop him by the end of the week , but they won’t so Go Gavin. -
Ffs do it anyway…
-
Fingers crossed.
-
I HOPE YOU DO IT GAVIN
-
I love this. Well done.
-
Do it!!!
-
Just do it!!!
-
🗳
2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣6️⃣ Is Coming, Let's Do This!
-
The correct response would be to sanction ALL TX reps, give them no votes and no access to committee seats- until the get fair and independent districts. But what do I know, i'm just a lefty from way back.
-
Two wrongs continue to push the US further right
-
Game on.
-
Letttsss go! Fuck em… they aren’t playing by the rules AT ALL time to fight.
-
Oregon, WA and Arizona should do it too.
-
Good. What I was thinking. If they say 5, we do 12. All of them sounds better
-
Should just do it anyways. Force the issue, worst case scenario, gerrymandering gets struck down nationwide.
-
He should remain Governor and create a coalition of other Governors to stand up to this lawless administration. He's being heard and it is important to continue.
-
I don't disagree that you need to get power back from this administration, but it says something that you have to cheat in US election systems to get power back from the previous cheats. You need an administration with the courage and vision to create a truly independent electoral oversight body.
-
❤️
-
He'd better start now. Don't wait til it's too late.
-
Don't talk about it; do it. The Supreme Court ruled that cheating is ok, so cheat. You can be sure the GOPPERS will push it to the extreme, and then some.
-
Yes, please!
-
Yes they can!!💙
-
Long past due. The fight to save our democracy has been underway for a decade.
-
This will only lead to a more escalated division of our nation and possibly that Civil War II that should be avoided. I'd much prefer a revolution against fascism than a war between states. I don't know what to do about the Texas gerrymandering, and yes it is wrong. But 2 wrongs don't make a right.
-
Finally getting in the fight! Let's go TACO! Take the pedo down!
-
Fucking do it already you fucking idiot.
@governor.ca.gov get with the motherfucking program and FUCKING DO IT.
-
California currently has 12 MAGA congressholes.
-
DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
He needs to follow through on this.
-
It is not that simple in California unfortunately.
-
Fight fire with fire
-
Good!
-
Awesome, thank you 😊.
-
Do it for Florida too, @govgavinnewsom.bsky.social. Please! This is way better than debating DeSsntis. This is beating him.
-
Why it took them almost 20 years to realize this was an option is baffling to me. Often the only language a bully understands is a punch in the face. Grateful for even the hint of a spine.
