Republican Declares Second Civil War Has Started in US
Indiana State Senator Mike Gaskill controversially declared that a “second civil war has already started” while advocating for a failed redistricting effort supported by former President Donald Trump. Despite pressure from the Trump administration, the Indiana Senate rejected the redistricting bill, which aimed to give the GOP control of all of Indiana’s congressional seats. The proposed map faced criticism, with opponents expressing concerns about gerrymandering and the potential impact on Democratic representation. Meanwhile, other states are also involved in redistricting battles, with both parties preparing for the 2026 midterms.
