Washington Examiner chief political correspondent Byron York criticized Democratic lawmakers in California for temporarily abandoning “democratic” values to redistrict.

York noted that the Citizens’ Redistricting Commission did not have a say in Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D-CA) call for a special election in November to create new congressional maps in the state. York said on The Hugh Hewitt Show on Tuesday that maps are being expedited to impeach President Donald Trump.

“It's like saying, you know, these are our progressive values, but we're going to have to put them on the shelf for a few years while we deal with the threat, the singular threat of Donald Trump, who presents a threat to our entire democracy,” York said. “And then we'll become democratic again after the 2030 census.”
