Fleischer Slams GOP Over Virginia Redistricting Loss

0:00It's April 22nd. I'm Cory with the story, and this is entertainment and celebrity news today, AI powered and star driven. Fox News contributor Ari Fleischer just slammed his own Republican party over a big loss in Virginia's redistricting fight. Voters there approved a new map Monday night that sets up 10 districts, likely to send Democrats to the U.S. House and just won for a Republican. He called the whole thing foreseeable and totally avoidable. Fleischer first dropped this warning back in August on social media, saying Jerry Mandarin should stick to once every 10 years nationwide. Otherwise, it's non-stop political warfare just to grab power. Now he's repeating it after the Democrats huge win. This mess kicked off when Donald Trump pushed red states like Texas, Ohio, North Carolina and Missouri to redraw maps early, aiming to boost. Republicans before the midterms. Democrats hit back hard in places like Virginia and California. Fleischer, who served as White House press secretary under George W. Bush, posted Tuesday on X that if you're going to start a fight, at least win it.
