Texas attorney general sues Biden administration over deportation pause

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Friday sued the Biden administration over its 100-day deportation pause, citing an 11th-hour agreement between Texas and the Trump administration that required the Department of Homeland Security to consult with the state before making changes.

It's the first lawsuit challenging one of the Biden administration's immigration actions, coming roughly 50 hours after President Joe Biden took the oath of office.

"On its first day in office, the Biden Administration cast aside congressionally enacted immigration laws and suspended the removal of illegal aliens whose removal is compelled by those very laws," the complaint, filed in the US District Court for the Southern District of Texas, reads.

"In doing so, it ignored basic constitutional principles and violated its written pledge to work cooperatively with the State of Texas to address shared immigration enforcement concerns," the lawsuit adds.

Ken Paxton is a vile POS that needs to go.

1. Texas has no standing to sue over immigration policy.

Wasting more Texas tax payers dollars for a stupid reason.

5. yup, crooked Paxton trying to bring attention to himself

[marble falls]

9. Paxton is self-serving political four-flusher. He'll be jailed yet while in office.

[Ford_Prefect]

15. Like Trump he uses dramatic remarks and actions to distract from his crimes.

I cannot wait for the FBI to get a good close look at his record and his well heeled friends.

[marble falls]

22. We've survived Trump. Now we can work on all the Trumpettes, like Paxton, Abbott etc.

[Lasher]

21. True

[napi21]

3. HEY! Kenny boy, your guy LOST! The Presientis now Joseph R. Biden! Better make a mental note of

that so you remember just who's making the decisions now.

Now go back under your cactus & get out of our hair!!!

[pwb]

4. How many people we talking about here Ken, you educated dumb fuck.

Does that slow your assembly line?

[Bev54]

6. My guess is the new AG may be investigation Mr. Paxton. I am hoping to see his

ass dragged off to jail.

[TwilightZone]

7. He's already under indictment.

They need to move the case forward. Last I knew, it's on pace for 2022 or something ridiculous.

[Bev54]

13. Yes, I suspect there was no real serious investigation

going on during the last admin. Now it is time for his indictment.

[bluestarone]

8. Dumb ASS

What is this # 62 or 63?? he'll lose this one too.

[LudwigPastorius]

10. "Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Friday sued the Biden administration..."

Go fuck yourself, you asymmetrically-faced, criminal piece of garbage.

[Mr.Bill]

11. Note to republicans:

The President has absolute immunity. Remember?

[George II]

12. Okay, Paxton, we'll "consult with the state before making changes". What do you think? Oh...

...it doesn't matter we're going to do it anyway.

Boom! Bogus lawsuit evaporates.

[rdking647]

14. consideriing cuccinelli who signed the order was never legally appointed....

the agrement is null and void anyway

[yellowdogintexas]

16. Of course he did. That's how he rolls

he truly is a vile POS.

I look forward to the day he finally ends up in prison.

[thenelm1]

25. He'd sue his own mother for poor potty training. (The one case he might win.) n/t

[Ligyron]

17. You'd think with a new, less friendly Administration and DOJ moving in...

Shouldn't you be laying low and not call unnecessary attention to yourself Kenny boyo?

[BumRushDaShow]

18. Add this idiot to the disbarment list please

[seta1950]

19. Figures

There they go again😤

[calclar]

20. TEXAS.....

....IT'S A WHOLE 'NOTHER COUNTRY.

(TAKEN FROM THE STATE'S CHAMBER OF COMMERCE COUNTRY-WIDE TV ADD VOICE-OVER OF ABOUT 20 YEARS AGO.}

ANYONE SEE IT AS I DID IN CALIFORNIA?

[angrychair]

23. He was indicted in 2015

For abuse of office and is actively being investigated by the FBI on a completely different matter. Why is he still even in office???

[summer_in_TX]

29. Paxton's federal charges from a Collin

County grand jury back in 2015-16 have been delayed through lots of legal maneuvering. It was supposed to be sent back to Collin County (his home county where the reputation of the legal system is said to heavily favor the good ole boys) this summer, but was unexpectedly changed back to Harris County.

[angrychair]

30. Sounds...convenient

And pathetically incompetent

[patphil]

24. Ken Paxton's BS lawsuits over the 2020 election help fuel the fire of hate and violence in DC.

He needs to be charged with attempting to defraud the 2020 Presidential Election, and inciting to riot, if not inciting insurrection.
His words and actions demand consequences.

[pfitz59]

27. Whatever deal he made with Trump is null and void

There's a new Sheriff in town!

[JohnnyRingo]

28. He should have voted for Trump if he wanted no changes.

What? He did?
Well no one else did, so get used to the new way.

[W T F]

31. Texas has no standing. The Texas AG is an incompetent stooge
