Nor incriminate himself because the Feds are coming. 

This is the answer.
Making it sound like he’s defiant, when the reality is he’s trying to keep from getting buttfucked in prison. He’s a crook and a coward.

    Here's a hint - if you vote for someone, you support them.  Whether it's Paxton, Abbott, Trump, Cruz, your vote says you support their actions.

Remember last month when I said that I couldn't believe that he couldn't raise the $3M himself for the settlement and avoided all this shit?

Insert polling data showing Paxton and Trump's constituents are MORE likely to vote for him after indictment here.

I’m taking this as tacit recognition from Abbott that the trial will move ahead in the senate and will most likely end in removal of paxton from office.
 

 

 

 

 

This motherfucker's grift may actually be larger than my cynical mind even imagined.

 

WatchGuard has been bought by Motorola since then.  I haven't seen that mentioned in any of the stories.  I don't doubt he made a pretty penny because just about every law enforcement agency in Texas uses WatchGuard for car cameras and body cams which are not cheap.

And arranged for $3 million to Patrick

Yep.  They are all banking on (correctly) looking like the ones who took out the criminal among them, when in reality, they are all criminals.

I’m almost jealous. As sad and corrupt as Louisiana politicians are, I have to tip my hat to the current crew in Texas. You make our crooks look like rank amateurs.

So will Patrick step down from over seeing the trial ?

Hey, leave me out of it.

Hey, leave me out of it.

I drove by a Jazzercise studio at Lakeline. So this hits close to home.

OK, so they've bought the judge and they're going to stack the jury and hold a sham trial that acquits him.

Can someone explain to what they're going to do when the FBI follows up with an indictment?  I mean, besides blame Biden's weaponized DOJ.

Are Hardin and Buzbee still in on this shit show?

Gag order. So no real people will speak until the circus starts. Well buzzbe might

Bold strategy, Cotton.  You were sold out by your former Assistant D.A.'s, your own party's state leadership, Nate Paul, Governor Abbott, and a half dozen noteworthy Mexican "Family Offices" in the real estate investment ecosystem.  And this has all been going on for about 8 years.  But it's somehow Joe Biden's fault?

That claim ain't gonna hold much water when your other eye finally pops too when you're when you're swinging from a bridge in Juarez.  You got one card here to play Ken, we both know it.  Don't you think it's about time you admitted to yourself what's going to happen.  It's no longer about you, it's who you're taking with you on the way out.  

Securities fraud at the state level? Or did I miss the feds charging him?

Don't you work in the sex/healthcare space?  You of all people should know, if you experience pending indickments lasting longer than 8 years, please consult your physician. 

You'd be surprised what legal tricks you can pull and what promises you make and favors you can exchange to keep yourself in office under the watchful eye of Texas state security which makes you too high profile to be killed.  18 months after his detail is off once he leaves offices, his fate is far worse than anything a U.S. jail can offer.

SEC brought a civil action long ago.  It was dismissed for failure to state a claim.  https://www.courthousenews.com/sec-case-againstken-paxton-dismissed/

Federal criminal charges, which are referred by the SEC, but not actually prosecuted by them, were apparently never on the table.

What about it?  It's a pretty unusual case having to do with the fact that Collin County may be the most corrupt populous county in the state.

Just trying to get a legal opinion on how one is able to avoid court for 8 years.  Asking for a friend.

If I got one of those, and I thought that some intern would read any responses, I'd respond with "are you a fucking idiot, I Am With The Deep State.  Or is this a joke and you know that and are just screwing with me?  Did Ken in Marketing put you up to this?  Or was it Betty on the GOP Infiltration Team?  Wait, is this Susie Wiles, and I gotta say Susie, you are doing a helluva great job - I doubt Trump or any body else outside of Jason Miller or Steven Cheung know you're working for us, and I can't wait to see what you and Cheung have cooking."

I'm not surprised anymore

Well the basic answer is that it was moved out of Collin County for bias reasons and special prosecutors appointed, again for bias reasons. Then Collin County refused to pay the special counsel bills. Then Paxton tried to move it back to Collin County. 

Then you add in the more conventional challenge to the indictment and taking that to the court of criminal appeals.
