Paxton is such a fucking tool.

I thought Texas was a libertarian paradise?

I'm guessing that the private prison owners have donated lots of money to the Republicans in Texas...

It's really the contractors for the public prisons.

Texas is fighting the federal government for not letting Texas government make all its own rules, and now fighting cities for making theirs. I think someone there wants to be king.

Those cities should just secede from Texas.

This pisses me right off. I hope criminal Paxton gets his just desserts in his trial coming up in April.

Y’all elected this idiot. Now suffer the consequences.

Paxton is insanely corrupt, and the entire election process keeping him in his position is a cesspool. It’s the same reason fucksticks like abbot are allowed to exist.

The bread and butter is voter suppression in major cities- the same major cities constantly getting sued by this jackass for making their own, non christofascist policies
