    The purge of voters going on right now there & other red states should be getting more attention. A million purged the other day.

  2. God, somebody just throw this corrupt POS in prison already. The only reason he’s being so brazen is because he knows the Texas GOP will protect his duplicitous-ass no matter what. Can the Feds get involved here and remove him from the Republican’s sphere of influence? He’s clearly on the take.

    The reason Ken Paxton is able to do shit like this is because he knows that voters cannot remove him from his seat.

    Texas is fucking rigged, y’all.

  4. If you live in Texas, please organize, protest and get the word out about what they’re doing. At the very least it will encourage people to check their voter registration.

  5. Alienating the Latino vote may not work out well for him. He’s also playing with fire, just asking for federal charges.

    He may be slippery, he may have dodged all the legal bullets so far, but everyone’s luck (and corrupt support) eventually fails.

  6. As a reminder, Paxton is a serial felon who should’ve been in jail something like a decade ago, and has instead had case after case dropped due to further crimes and corruption.

    In plainer terms I’ll believe it when I see it.

  7. Ask yourself this, it is incredibly easy to prove citizenship status in court. Why hasn’t Paxton and Abbott taken these 6500 non citizens to court?

    It’s because they are lying about the data. In 2012 Florida went through 12 million voter registrations, investigated 8 and convicted 1 person of voting as a non-citizen.

    6500 non-citizen voters would be the highest number ***ever*** found since Republicans began searching for them. It would be 30 times greater than the sum of all convicted non-citizen voters in the entire nation since 2010. This is not an exaggeration, and all the research into this topic shows that.

  8. Ken Paxton has been in legal trouble for over 10 years. TX needs to get it’s shit together and hold this crook accountable

    Register to vote here : [https://iwillvote.com/](https://iwillvote.com/)

    Please also CHECK your registration at [https://iwillvote.com](https://iwillvote.com) .

    Many states have purged voter roles and registration without your knowledge. Your prior registration may not be valid. You may need to register again.

    Some states require you register 30 days before the election you wish to vote in. If you have any questions, contact your local voting officials.

    If you are curious if your state might be disenfranchising voters(spoiler alert, if you live in a swing state [ PA, GA, NC, MI, WI, AZ, NV)] the answer is yes), check this website to see what is going on and how it is affecting the citizens of your state’s right to vote.

  10. You think Paxton is an outlier?

    Think again.

    This is how Repubs plan to operate nationwide if they regain power.

    And it won’t just be suspected illegals from Mexico they are targeting.

    Have Hispanic blood? Had an abortion? Taking birth control? Travelled across state lines?

    Don’t believe it? Then read Project 2025. Donald Trump’s playbook.

    Right Repubs?

  11. Is he though? Because Ken Paxton hasnt had a shred of accountability applied to his name despite breaking the law multiple times

  12. Nope. He is in zero trouble. Texas republicans acquitted him recently on his impeachment for crazier offenses.

  13. there is going to be a lot that Congress will need to unfuck with legislation once the Dems retake the House and hold the Senate, election interference defense being near the top of the list

    The GQP controls Texas, and Paxton maybe controls the Texas GQP more than Trump himself. I think Paxton has major blackmail material on top Texas folks, which is why they won’t or can’t stop him or get rid of him.

    So long as Paxton stays in Texas, he may be as safe as Putin is, staying in Russia.

  15. Defiant_Regular3738 on

    He’s been in big trouble for years. He’s committed multiple serious crimes in front of the media, the people, and state.

    His consequences will come one day. Maybe idk. He should have been cooked a few years ago.

  16. If you’re Latino, it doesn’t matter how law abiding you are, this is what republicans think of you.

  17. It’s sad how many in the Latino community see this and don’t connect the danger. Still voting for a POS like him.

  18. BuckshotLaFunke on

    Is he though? Texas has already proven he’s above the law and Garland is a pussy.

  19. I_fail_at_memes on

    No he’s not. He ever faces any consequences for this I will donate $100 to a charity named by the first respondent to this comment.

    Will this have any impact on Hispanic Republicans or undecided? It seems extremely disrespectful, at best, to Hispanics as a whole.

    I wish there was any possibility of getting the judges that approved all of these warrants in trouble.

  22. In Texas only about 37% of eligible people are registered to vote and of that in 2022 only about 46% of registered voters actually voted. It would take a very small amount of people just to show up and vote to change Texas.

    2020 – November (Presidential)
    Registered Voters
    16,955,519
    Voting Age Population (VAP)
    21,596,071
    Percentage of VAP Registered
    78.51%
    Turnout
    11,315,056
    Percent of Turnout to Registered
    66.73%
    Percent of Turnout to VAP
    52.39%

  23. What don’t people understand?

    This was a stunt with an audience of one. He’s auditioning.

  24. We need Harris to win decisively. By 60-40 or so .
    Make it clear that intimidation doesn’t work.

  25. NerdBlizzards on

    How about the judges that signed off on those warrants. They’re complicit as well.

    HE already survived an impeachment. These people are all above the law, just like their Orange daddy
