On the latest episode of Nir & Rupar, our live weekly video show, David Nir of The Downballot and Aaron Rupar of Public Notice explain the GOP’s exceedingly cynical effort to re-gerrymander Texas’ already gerrymandered congressional map.

If you haven’t yet subscribed to The Downballot, which provides unparalleled coverage of the thousands of critical elections below the presidency, sign up below:

David and Aaron discuss:

* How the new Texas map would target Black and Latino voters—and members of Congress—in an effort to weaken their power

* Why Donald Trump’s unfolding plan to pirouette away from the Jeffrey Epstein debacle could disgust some of his key supporters

* Why the worst-case scenario for Trump is a simultaneous spike in inflation and unemployment

And much more!
