With Texas moving quickly toward a mid-decade revision of its congressional map to tilt five districts toward the Republican Party, Missouri would now be expected to follow suit to help the GOP gain one more.
Missouri has eight congressional districts, and Democrats hold two. Any proposal is likely to split the 5th District, which is mainly in Kansas City, by adding Republican voters in sufficient numbers to take it away from incumbent Democratic Rep. Emanuel Cleaver.
That would give Republicans seven of the state’s seats in the U.S. House.
For nearly a month, Trump has been pressuring Gov. Mike Kehoe and legislative leaders, with calls to at least one Republican lawmaker who expressed reluctance to go along.
“The Great State of Missouri is now IN,” Trump wrote. “I’m not surprised. It is a great State with fabulous people. I won it, all 3 times, in a landslide. We’re going to win the Midterms in Missouri again, bigger and better than ever before!”
And Kehoe, in a statement responding to Trump, inched closer to saying he intended to call a special session. At a news conference in his office Tuesday, Kehoe said no decision had been made.
“Governor Kehoe continues to have conversations with House and Senate leadership to assess options for a special session that would allow the General Assembly to provide congressional districts that best represent Missourians,” a statement sent by spokeswoman Gabby Picard read. “Governor Kehoe appreciates President Trump’s attention to this issue on behalf of Missourians.”
No proposed map that would favor Republicans has been revealed, and a top Republican on Wednesday told The Independent she has been unable to get a look at one circulating privately.
“I’ve tried to get a hold of the map that I’ve heard about,” said Jennifer Bukowsky of Columbia, vice chair of the Republican State Committee. “I guess I’m not important enough to be consulted.”

The cowardly orange peel forces and even more cowardly magat missouri governor to bend over, sit stay, and eventually roll over because the 34x convicted felon sees the writing on the wall and just like 1/6, and just like his entire business career, cheating and deceiving the ignorant maga cult is his only way of holding on to his deplorable dictatorship. The orange peel never was and never will be my president, nor to the 78 million and growing segment that chose not to support hate, division, discrimination, and the mindless destruction of America.
Your TDS is acting up.
Guess what???? DJ Trump is your president rather you like it or not! And I don’t know how old you are but name calling is extremely childish and petty.
Your sentence structure is extremely childish and petty.
I believe 1022 is Professor Pronoun. Throwing all that "smart" as us libs.
The One Big Beautiful Bill will blow up in late 2026. This will kill the Republican majority as it is currently structured. Changing the districts will enable Trump to maintain control and continue to exceed the Constitutional authority of the Presidency. The SCOTUS rulings enabling him to do the crazy stuff he is doing won't reach their level for an actual hearing for years. I hope all the MAGA hat folks understand how dangerous this is. Trump and the MAGA crowd will eventually lose power and the liberals will copy his playbook and take equally dumb actions.
Where's the PPPP?
They are probably busy polishing up on how to properly use all their capital letters.
It could take a while!

You are confused again the libs are the pronoun party how soon you forget. Your party also is also confused about genders and what gender can have a baby… Don’t worry you silly lbs I won’t let you forget your nonsense.
The PPPP is on an climbing expedition.
Probably on looking for the lost tablets rumored to be waiting to be rescued from the top of the mountain.
It takes a while to summit Bubulum Stercus Montis but the rwnjs connsider it wholly ground
238....To Professor Pronoun, I still say you're confused with your own identity and therefore seek to compensate this inner conflict by slamming LGBTQ so that "monkey see monkey do" is your only way out.

No confusion here straight white male and proud of it,
Once again so you will hopefully retain it the LIBS/DEMS are the party that is confused about murder/abortion, what gender can have a baby and the total number of
genders. I also believe in law enforcement not burning down multiple cities because you are having a temper tantrum. Your party is so obsessed with attention you stand out on purpose and then get offended when someone says something about it. Dress like a fool get tats get all the piercing standout as much as you can, but in a few years I will be the one standing out because I will not participate in any of that….
And I’m sure your gonna have a comment about the straight while male, I have every right to be proud of that, we all get the same rules.
I’m not racist either, if you get to be proud of whatever you are so do I.
I wonder what your pronouns are…
What a bunch of Dumb Liberal Leftist Demon Democrats. Let us begin an educational journey. The 2-largest cities in Missouri, Kansas City and St Louis have Democratic Mayors and Democratic Loyalist - and Rank as 2- of the Highest Crime and Murder Cities not only in Missouri, but in the United States. When you look at the Top 10 Crime and Murder Cities in the United States the Majority of them have Democratic Mayors and Democratic Loyalist, what does that say - Yet the Democrats continually Fail to see the Truth and Facts of their Failed Policies and Practices - maybe that is why they LOST - the Presidency, the Senate, and the House and their Party is in Utter - SHAMBLES - with No Direction in Site, because their Leadership was a Sleep at the Wheel for the prior 4-Years letting the Magic Autopen set the Direction of their Party, allowing Millions of Illegal Aliens to come across the Border, while their Previous Patriarch Obama, holds the Record for Deporting the most Illegal Aliens by a US President, (Can anyone figure that Azz-Backwards Logic Out) as they are holding Ice Cream Socials and Hiring Oprah and the Hollywood Elitest to try and Sway America, while spending $1.5-Billion Dollars in 15--Weeks (Know that is a Presidential Election Record) as Biden Pardoned his Son, Hunter, who was having an affair with his Dead Brother's wife and then Biden Pardoned his entire Family, Siblings and their Spouses - OMG - OMG - Where is Jerry Springer when you need him. So, all you Frenzy Democrats it is time for you to whine, cry, yell, and vent like the Crazy - Karens and Kevins you are as we salute the Fall of the Democrats as the Independant's are moving up the RANKS - LOL! LOL! LOL!
8:45 taking us on an educational journey with zero grammer and two long ass sentences, lmao.
Dude couldn't even say anything real, just "DEMONS BAD REEEEEE"
7:44PM - No, the United States is done with the Woke, DEI, CRT, and the Pronoun Shamers, trying to influence and run our society. Budweiser, Target, Disney, Starbucks, and the Government - all learned their Lessons about - "Go Woke - Go Broke", and Cracker Barrel is about to get the "Wake Up Call", stop screwing with things. Just like Schools are stopping - Ridiculous Policies of forcing boys and girls to share bathrooms and locker rooms and having boys compete in female sports - you can act, dress, pretend, or be whoever you want at home - but the line stops when - You Try to Force your actions on the majority.
Hey all you maga-$%$#@, check out USA Today and weep. Your master is extremely unpopular and losing support fast. And to think, the big ugly bill hasn't even started it's destruction yet.
7:27 is proven correct with the final sentence. Because nobody is pushing these things on anyone. However, if they don't like the pronouns, they should stop using pronouns. Good luck with that.
Hey 642, Let me introduce to you (727, 845) the one and only PPPP!.....ie.. the Prolific Pontificating Paragraph Producer! You'll notice that the same obsession with dems, biden, and Obama are repeatedly regurgitated in different paragraph structures depending on the day of the week. An absolute joy to behold.........not.
