AUSTIN — Texas House Democrats on Monday dared Attorney General Ken Paxton to take on Elon Musk.

Led by Rep. Mihaela Plesa of Dallas, more than 40 Democrats demanded an inquiry into allegations that Musk’s social media platform X has been used to churn out explicit, sexualized images without consent.

That move sets up a politically charged test for Paxton, who is running for Senate, potentially pitting the Republican against a powerful conservative figure, key national GOP donor and major presence in Texas.

Paxton’s office did not respond to messages seeking comment. Paxton has long emphasized his tough stance on child exploitation and big tech, including lawsuits against major technology companies...


Gee, I wonder what shape pretzel Ken will contort himself into to avoid investigating grok? Will he respond at all?
