Attorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian celebrate how California voters passed Proposition 50 with approximately 65% support, delivering a crushing blow to Trump’s efforts to rig the 2026 midterm elections. The hosts reveal how Gavin Newsom led the charge after Trump directed Texas Governor Greg Abbott to gerrymander congressional districts, with Prop 50 adding five likely Democratic seats to offset Republican gains and potentially flip House control in 2026. They detail how Trump deployed federal troops to California polling locations including Dodger Stadium and sent Justice Department monitors to five counties in what Newsom called voter intimidation, while Trump made baseless fraud claims after losing. The attorneys explain how 70% of ballots were cast early showing massive enthusiasm, with overwhelming Latino and Asian American support, while the “no” vote received fewer votes than Trump got in California’s 2024 presidential election. They discuss how moderate Democrats Mikie Sherrill and Abigail Spanberger won gubernatorial races in New Jersey and Virginia the same night, suggesting Trump’s support is dwindling as moderate Republicans and independents reject his authoritarian agenda.
