    As someone born in Texas it is disgusting how the attorney general of the state is able to disregard civil rights and abuse his office in pursuit of his political agenda.

    I waited years for the feds to stick something to him only to watch his cornies let him off the hook for all his crooked deeds in a show trial. That was the day I knew democracy and Justice were only fairytails in the “Lone Star State”.

    Glad I’m leaving this shit hole finally.

    Paxton falsely claimed that immigrants were being given social security numbers at the border as part of the scheme, too. There’s no evidence of that, or that noncitizens cast ballots in any significant numbers.
