Jessica Tarlov is no stranger to being the sole liberal voice on a Fox News panel, and she used that voice Tuesday to turn her colleagues' conservative outrage back on them.
Tarlov cried hypocrisy during a discussion with Martha MacCallum and Tomi Lahren about Texas Democrats shirking their duties by fleeing to so-called "blue states" to prevent a quorum for a redistricting vote that favored the GOP.
President Donald Trump claimed on CNBC Tuesday that Republicans were "entitled to five more" congressional seats from the state because he said he won Texas "decisively" in last year’s presidential election.
The Texas Democratic lawmakers defied the governor and Texas attorney general's threats of arrest, with no plans to return to the state until the obvious gerrymandering is addressed.
"There was a bill in 2021 that all the Democrats supported that would have had a national ban on redistricting in this way, and all the Republicans opposed it," Tarlov began. "I also heard no complaints when Mike Johnson, just a couple weeks ago, decided to abdicate his job to say, 'Congress isn't in session anymore because I don't want to have to vote on turning over the Epstein files -- the bill put forward by Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie.' He said, 'Let's go home,' rather than talk about the fact that Donald Trump may or may not have been in there."
Tarlov added, "Be equal opportunity in your complaints about fleeing your job. At least they're doing this for a good reason."
The Texas Democrats have said they're defying the legislature in the name of democracy and are ready to face the consequences of their actions, even if that means fines and arrests.
