This the same famously corrupt Ken Paxton who is indicted on securities fraud and bribery? Who then was suspended from office by the TX house of representatives?

Sure seems like he should be worrying more about his own affairs rather than oppressing trans folks

When you're under indictment, that's the perfect time to create political spectacle and distract everyone's attention.

If you have enough crimes they apparently can't just prosecute you for them at the same time!

Get out of consequences of your shitty behaviour by doing more shitty things that hurt people.
