Aiding / Abetting is Illegal, Right?

A bunch of democrats ILLEGALLY fled Texas so as to avoid doing their jobs in the Texas legislature. It seems that they're "big mad" that Republicans are taking a page out of their playbook and redrawing political lines so as to garner some extra seats in DC.

Boo Hoo. It's bit like democrats haven't done the same thing for years wherever they're in charge:

• 2024 Election (Illinois) 55% D, 45% R - but 14 of 17 reps are dems (82%)
• 2024 Election (New York) 56% D, 43% R - but 19 of 26 reps are dems (73%)
• 2024 Election (California) 58% D, 38% R - but 43 of 52 reps are dems (83%)

Not very proportional, and even less so when you include the two dem senators from each state. So spare us the fake outrage.

Now, Texas Governor Greg Abbott is threatening the missing democrats with arrest for abandoning their elected posts:

• Texas House Republicans on Monday voted 85-6 to authorize the House sergeant-at-arms and related officers to track down and civilly arrest Democrats who fled the state, many heading to Illinois, in protest of GOP redistricting efforts.

  "The sergeant-at-arms and any officers appointed by her are directed to send for all absentees whose attendance is not excused for the purposes of securing and maintaining their attendance under warrant of arrest, if necessary, until further order of the House," said Republican state Rep. Dustin Burrows, the speaker of the Texas House of Representatives.

As you may or may not know, they're here in Illinois, guests of Fata$$ and making public appearances to screech and whine about how "democracy is dying" somehow....while the majority party enacts what the majority of their citizens voted for.

Our question is this though:

• Could Greg Abbott get a Texas Grand Jury to make a case for indicting Fata$$ for aiding and abetting the Texas dems in their illegal acts?

It might toss a wrench in his national ambitions and certainly cost him private attorney fees - this isn't a governmental function of any sort in Illinois, breaking Texas laws. An interesting bit of speculation.
