(11,552 posts)1. Paxton continues to avoid any accountability or consequences for his securities fraud indictments
Greg Abbots administration is thoroughly corrupt.

(25,962 posts)3. Paxton's 6th Amendment rights have been egregiously violated.
He was indicted seven years ago on felony securities fraud charges. It's ridiculous to make the man wait this long for a trial.

These continued attacks on our fair and free election system are beyond meritless, beyond reckless -- they are a scheme by the President of the United States and some in the Republican party to disregard the will of the people-- and name their own victors.

Texas has moved to sue GA, MI, WI, and PA *in the US Supreme Court*. It's asking SCOTUS to let legislatures decide who won an extraordinarily extreme ask rooted in baseless voter fraud conspiracies that numerous judges have repeatedly rejected https://texasattorneygeneral.gov/sites/default/files/images/admin/2020/Press/SCOTUSFiling.pdf?utm_content=&utm_medium=email&utm_name=&utm_source=govdelivery&utm_term=

And if it does not make sense, you must acquit
