Remember this Name: Ken Paxton: He Will be Judged for his Fascist Efforts to Protect Trump and for Multiple Felonies

The truth: not a single Republican in the House or Senate is worthy of their position. They have become Trump's loyal storm troopers and the enemy of all real Americans. However, some elected officials in red states are even worse, attempting to make names for themselves while supporting the illegitimate and worst president in American history.

Ken Paxton is the current attorney general for the state of Texas. You may have heard his name recently. He is the author of a brief submitted to the Supreme Court in a final attempt to reverse the will of the American people who chose Joe Biden as their 46th president in the recent election. He is attempting to invalidate all mail-in votes in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia, and Wisconsin. 18 additional red states have joined him as well as 106 Republican in name only members of the House.

However, there is much more to this story. The story behind the story is Paxton's real motive. He is apparently seeking a presidential pardon. In October it was reported that Paxton's own staff accused him of bribery and more.

A letter offering reasons for the accusations was posted and reported by the Daily Kos.

That letter was leaked to the Press, which began fleshing out the story. One of Paxton’s donors, a real estate investor by the name Nate Paul, had been raided by the FBI sometime earlier. In a bid to sue the FBI, he relied on Paxton to get hold of documents that he should not have access to, and Paxton ordered that his office begin investigating the Feds on Paul’s behalf. His people balked, and were subsequently punished for refusing to go along.

Shortly after the letter leaked, his #2 resigned, and several others were harassed and then fired. Paxton called them “rogue employees” but it’s important to emphasize that these people were all the most senior staffers at the Texas Attorney General’s Office.

Several years ago he was charged and indicted for securities fraud. This case is still pending.

There is little doubt that Paxton's request to the SCOTUS has an ulterior motive, to save his old, white ass by obtaining a presidential pardon. Trump is handing them out like Halloween candy, even to those who had not requested one.

Finally, it would be a travesty of the highest nature if the Court agrees to hear this facetious case. There is not a single iota of proof that the charges have a basis in reality.

Every Demographic Supported Biden and Rejected Trump

Don’t be misled by the final Electoral College map. Although Arizona and Georgia were exceptions, the Electoral Vote went as expected. If you are white, and live in a “red state,” you choose to be ignorant. You vote for any candidate with an “R” next to his or her name without learning if that person is qualified to make decisions which will affect your future. The popular vote was historic; Biden is nearing a five-million vote lead. More importantly, with the exception of white supremacists and extremists who would shred the Constitution, Biden won nearly every demographic. One surprise for me was the fact that unlike 2016, the Christian Religious Right supported Trump’s opponent. In the months leading up to election day, Trump’s campaign ignored rumblings among Evangelicals and Catholics that support for the most immoral man in the world was dwindling. This was confirmed after election day. This situation is another confirmation of the fact that repealing the Electoral College would ...

Is Republican’s Choice to not Pass a Second Stimulus a Vindictive Response to Trump’s Huge Loss?

Image
 No one is angrier about Trump’s loss than the orange buffoon himself, but Moscow Mitch McConnell is a very close second. He was able to maneuver the least qualified illegitimate president in history to satisfy his personal ambitions. His ambitions are not the needs and wishes of the majority of the American people. His personal goals are white supremacy and other forms of bigotry. It was Moscow Mitch who blocked a second stimulus check before the election. He wants to save all the funds for his rich friends. In the last week approximately 800,000 new unemployment claims were filed as the effects of Covid-19 continue to cause more distress to Americans. Republicans don’t care. They literally don’t give a damn about the working class, and have not for at least 40 years. President-elect Biden says that he will make relieving some of the financial stress from the American worker one of his immediate priorities. It is Trump who must shoulder the blame for the loss of life and personal ...

A Letter to Donald Trump Demanding that he Grow-up

Image
I'll make this brief because Trump's attention span is shorter than two minutes, proven by his constant tweeting. To Donald Trump: the outgoing President of the United States As an American citizen who votes, I am demanding that you obey the Constitution and recognize that the will of the people takes precedence over your personal ambitions. In what has become an historical election you have lost, and lost by six million votes. Joe Biden has amassed 306 electoral votes. It's over. If you are capable of facing the truth, look back to this same time four years ago. Although your campaign was based on lies, and was mean spirited and void of a position on the issues, you captured the Electoral College by a total of 77,000 votes in three states with help from your mentor, Vladimir Putin, making it the closest election in history. While in mental agony, Hillary Clinton displayed class and patriotism by conceding the election immediately after you were declared the victor. By not...
