If they are looking for electoral fraud⌠go to North Carolina.
WHY is it the only people committing election fraud are those SCREAMING about it? THEY should be thrown in jail. OWN it or get out.
[Attorney General Ken] "Paxton said after the decision that the state is weighing its options.
ââTodayâs ruling involves a federal district court improperly assuming control over key aspects of the Stateâs obligation under federal and state law to maintain the integrity of its voter rolls,â he said.â
God, what an ass.
This might be fun: compose a strongly-worded, official-sounding letter talking about the Constitutional requirement that every elected official be a full US citizen and not been convicted of feloni(es), and demanding documented proof of both by a certain date. Note in the letter that this was spurred by the reports of millions of criminals illegally entering through Our Southern Border, and trusting that they understand how critical is National Security.
Then send it to every Republican in Congress. Add a note that failure to respond timely is an admission of guilt.
What took so longâŚthis has been an obvious âopen secretâ since day one.
Remember, AG Ken âKKKâ Paxton will probably be the next Governor of Texas.
That is the political treadmill in Texas: State Rep, AG, Lt. Governor, Governor.
Paxton wants to skip the Lt. Gov. step and has the $$$ Connections to do it.
Only 80 of the original 98,000 names on the list have been identified as being ineligible to vote
Two further key points for context:
-
Thatâs a total of 80 over a period of 22 years.
-
And most if not all of those resulted from confusion and/or bad info by, between, and among the voter and poll workers, NOT from ill intent.
This whole âvoter fraudâ exercise was itself a complete fraud.
Whitley? Yeah, suuure. I see you Jared Kushner, hiding behind Betoâs upper lip.
Paxton is busy sewing up the Jesus vote by preaching anytime or anywhere there is someone to listen. Now all he needs to do is get out from under that securities fraud indictment, and he will be good to go as the next governor of a state turning bluer by the week. Hurry up, Ken. (Pro tip: Ken is a huge fraud.)
Thank you, Judge Biery.
So, let me get it straight⌠The TX GOP government accused thousands, then hundreds, then 80 people over last 20 years of improperly voting based on their, that is the GOP governmentâs, improper understanding of voting rolls, then their improper recording of voter rolls. And now they (again, the GOP government) are telling the court that it has no right interfering with the GOP governmentâs right to f.ck with voters?
How sure are we TX is not a dictatorship?
Under the Constitution, the Federal Goverbnment is authorized.
Article 4, Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government,
These good ole boys are just confused on what âRepublicanâ means.
you misspelled ⌠Goobernment â
Not even improperly voting; improperly being registered to vote. And I donât think theyâre even sure about that.
Nice pic, but is it:
Judge Fred Biery
Attorney General Ken Paxton
Gov. Greg Abbott
Secretary of State David Whitley or
Thomas Buser-Clancy, a staff attorney
I donât know what sense of aesthetic TPM follows that rules photo captions as out-of-bounds. I assume that if I rigorously follow the logic of the article, I will arrive at the most-likely answer, but why not a simple mouse-over if they need to keep the pic âcleanâ from caption.
Itâs telling that the #1 defender/cheerleader of Whitley is CURRENTLY FELONY INDICTED Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton ÂŽ.
AP failed, as usual, to include Paxtonâs CURRENTLY FELONY INDICTED distinction in the article, so I fixed it.
The decision is a victory for civil rights groups that swiftly sued after Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbottâs new elections chief, Secretary of State David Whitley, announcedâŚ
Wait a minute. Iâm pretty sure that his name is âWhitey.â
Tell us something that Texans havenât known for years.
"Naturally, when it comes to voting, we in Texas are accustomed to discerning that fine hairâs-breadth worth of difference that makes one hopeless dipstick slightly less awful than the other. But it does raise the question: Why bother?
Oh, itâs just that your life is at stake" - Molly Ivins
⌠our very own dreaded Legislature is almost upon us. Jan. 9 and theyâll all be here, leaving many a village without its idiot - Molly Ivins
The only reason TX isnât a dictatorship is that the would be dictators are hopelessly incompetent. I give you exGov Shrub, exGov Goodhair, our present Gov Dipstick, Louis Gohmert, Blake Fahrenthold, and a host of supporting characters.
