Breaking: Trump Says “We’re Entitled to Five More Seats”—Texas Turns into a Battlefield

Inside the national redistricting coup, FBI overreach, and the dangerous playbook of Project 2025.

What’s happening in Texas right now is no longer about process—it’s about power. About a party that’s losing its grip on the popular vote and tightening its control through any means available.

It began quietly, as these things often do. A plan advanced by Republican leadership in Austin to redraw congressional maps in the middle of the decade—well ahead of the next census. Not to reflect population shifts. Not to respond to any legal mandate. But to hand Donald Trump and the GOP five more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Trump didn’t even try to hide it. “I got the highest vote in the history of Texas,” he said, “and we are entitled to five more seats.” Entitled. That’s the word he used. Not won, not earned—entitled.

The moment those words came out of his mouth, the entire chessboard moved.

Democrats in the Texas House refused to play along. More than fifty lawmakers fled the state, denying Republicans the quorum they needed to ram the maps through. Some went to New York. Others to Massachusetts. Many to Illinois and New Hampshire. Anywhere but Texas.

Governor Greg Abbott responded by issuing civil arrest warrants. But those only carry legal weight inside Texas. Outside state lines, they’re little more than headlines.

So they escalated. Senator John Cornyn wrote to the FBI, asking the federal government to help locate and detain state legislators. And Donald Trump—again—made clear what he wanted. He told reporters the FBI “may have to get involved.” He said the quiet part out loud.

Here’s what my sources are telling me, behind the scenes: the FBI’s involvement isn’t just about locating lawmakers. It’s about building a case. Officials inside the Bureau are now quietly exploring whether figures like Beto O’Rourke or Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker can be tied to a broader conspiracy—accusations of bribery, of influencing public officials to abandon their sworn duties. If they can make that stick, they’ll say it crosses state lines. And suddenly, it’s a federal case.

That’s why I’m writing you today. Because this isn’t just about Texas. This is about 2026. This is about the future of the American political map, and who controls it.

While all this is playing out in Texas, Florida has quietly initiated its own redistricting push—beginning the process to redraw boundaries and entrench power further in Republican hands. One state after another is preparing to follow. A national map war is underway. Quietly. Strategically. Deliberately.

This is Project 2025 in motion. The map is part of the mission.

And if you think it ends at gerrymandering, you’re not paying attention. They’re not just shifting lines. They’re shifting laws. Deploying federal agencies. Elevating partisan loyalty over constitutional norms. Every lever of power is being pulled.

That’s why the spectacle is only going to get worse. That’s why every move is being coordinated at the highest levels. And that’s why you’re hearing it from me before you hear it anywhere else.

Because I used to be one of them. Deep inside the Trump machine. I know the language, the strategy, the playbook. I know how they move, when they pivot, and what comes next.

That’s why I’m able to bring you this information. But bringing you this kind of information puts me at risk. I don’t have corporate sponsors. I don’t have billionaire backers. What I have is you.

That’s why I need your help to keep going. If this letter moved you, if this moment scares you like it should—then be part of the fight. Become a paid subscriber. Bring three or four more people into this community. Help grow this platform so we can outpace the disinformation.

And if you haven’t yet, pick up your copy of Shadow Diplomacy at levremembers.com It’s not just my story—it’s a roadmap to how Donald Trump operates behind closed doors. Everything that’s happening now… is part of the pattern I warned you about.

I won’t stay silent.

Not now.

Not while there’s still a chance to stop it.
