TX-SEN: Ken Paxton is SICK.


?s=20


Qasim Rashid, Esq.
@QasimRashid
BREAKING: Adam Hoffman has been released from jail for "good behavior."

Hoffman is the 49-year-old Waco, TX attorney who faced life without parole for repeatedly raping a young boy, until Texas AG Ken Paxton offered him 1 day in jail and no need to register as a sex offender. A judge increased his sentence to a whopping 60 days. He got out in 30 days.

This is MAGA's vision for the USA. Full story: https://letsaddresstexas.substack.com/p/ken-paxtons-office-offered-a-child

We don't want this widely known until after Paxton wins the runoff against Cornyn!

I learned about today and I’m calling it out for what it is, election aside.

cornyn is pissed at trump for endorsing paxton and may turn on the rethugs from now until November.
Trump screwed over cornyn and he probably won't forget it win or lose.

... with only one sure cure.
He, Dan Patrick, and Abbott are the Tyrannical Triumvirate of Texas, and three of the vilest demon spawn of Satan ever to foul the Earth.
As far as Abbott is concerned, I share the view of many Texans who wish that tree had been bigger.

This just isn't normal, even for them.
Though, as some others on this thread mentioned, I'd rather be discussing this starting tomorrow.
