Truth or Lies?
Gerrymandering in Texas
Trump says that he and other republicans are ENTITLED to 5 more seats in the attempted redistricting of Texas
They are NOT entitled to more seats. They are going about this illegally according to the US Constitution. Constitutional and federal provisions create the framework for Texas redistricting, ensuring equal population districts, compliance with the Voting Rights Act, and preventing racial or partisan gerrymandering.

Other countries are emptying their prisons into our country
from Donald Trump:
...millions of people to pour through our borders from jails, prisons, mental institutions, insane asylums, gang members to be taken off the streets of Venezuela and deposited in our country... You know, crime in Venezuela is down 74 percent, because they took their criminals and gave them to us through an open border policy of the previous administration.
New York Times:
Is Venezuela sending criminals to the U.S.?
There is no evidence that the Venezuelan government is systemically or selectively releasing prisoners and expelling them from the country.
There is no credible research showing that increased immigration leads to increased crime... Instead, studies suggest that immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than people born in the United States
