Paxton is such a hollow, soulless creature that he has to hang his identity as a mini-me trumper. He even wears the duplicate blue suit with the ridiculously long red tie uniform of the knuckle dragging alpha beast.

There's a special section of Hell reserved for Paxton and those like him. Just absolute monsters of the highest order.

Trump doesn’t need to sign a national ban. Remember how he went on about how much he loved acting agency heads bc they didn’t need senate confirmation. All he needs is an acting head of fda to rescind approval for mifepristone & misoprostol & an acting head of DOJ who would enforce the Comstock Act.

Paxton is nothing more than a Nazi wannabe. And he’s turned Texas into a fascist-like state. He’s nothing more than a bully. The voters in Texas need to revolt to get their Governor and Attorney General out of office and get level headed legislators elected to end this.

And if you think Nazism is dead, read about the Neo Nazis who went to Springfield, OH, to disrupt that community after the lies spread by both Grumpy and his equally disgusting pal Vance. This needs to stop.

This is horribly reminiscent of what happened in Ireland in 1992, except the Irish Supreme Court upheld the right of the 14-year-old girl to travel to the UK to obtain a legal abortion after being raped.

This, remember, was a generation ago, when the Republic was still constitutionally a Catholic country with a total ban on abortion. They were still, it would seem, somewhat more liberal then than is Texas now.

Ken Paxton IS a Trump mini- wannabe of the worst kind. Shitzinpants does wield power in the MAGAcult, but Paxton works the legal system to achieve his evil ends, something his idol has no idea how to do, making him significantly more dangerous. He should be a convicted felon and an impeached AG but those in power in Texas don’t have the will or guts to do the right thing. Don’t know how Texans can say they support the rule of law when they allow Paxton to continue being the chief enforcer of laws in their state. Needless to say I wouldn’t want a female in my family to be living in the lone star state.

Wish someone would ask don the con or any Republican, where is this open border? Ans what do border agents do? What do they do at border stations? Why have record immigrants been processed with an open border? Why has there been record drug seizures? Beyond time for reporters to ask questions and demand answers, not conspiracies and lies.

The only people who've been calling for an open border are Republicans, FOX "News" and other right wing persons. And where do you think immigrants hear it from? Not Democratic leaders! The far right loonies created the problem to support their agenda.

In the red states, as one knows, equality between the sexes is paramount … so it’s only fair that they treat both sexes the same: severe restrictions on abortion should be balanced by the similar restrictions on Viagra (and its like) as a potential prevention against rape. Looking forward to that law. No?

While the laws used are different, this is theoretically like The Fugitive Slave Act, ensuring that all states opposed to slavery had to obey the laws of states that viewed Black people as property.
