The raids have triggered outrage and cries of voter suppression in a state with a long history of discrimination against citizens of Mexican descent, which helped give rise to LULAC.

Ken Paxton is a textbook definition bonafide out-and-out Nazi. Straight up sending the Gestapo to eliminate enemies of the state. He should be removed and jailed for treason, this slimy fucking sack of rotting corpses.

      LOL the only people who can hold him to task in the state are currently cheering him on, and we all know Congress ain’t gonna do shit in either chamber.

        LULAC is accusing him of voter suppression so it would be up to Garland. I know it’s a pipe dream but unless they find some evidence that LULAC is playing dirty this has the potential to go real bad for ol’cunt eye Ken.

        This has been true, but violating voting rights brings him into Federal jurisdiction. Here’s hoping Biden’s DOJ will bring charges. I’m not holding my breath, though.

    I’m not defending Paxton or his lackeys in any sense, but this really stood out to me:

    Officers seized 65 cellphones and 41 computers and storage devices [from Manuel Medina, chair of the Tejano Democrats] the filing said.

    Sixty-five cellphones? Who has sixty-five cellphones?

      My understanding is that Medina was politically active on the state rep candidate’s campaign and had likely helped operate phone banks. The kind of operation where you need a lot of phones to dial, and laptops to coordinate.

      Obviously nothing has been confirmed yet because Paxton is being an obstructive nazi piece of shit buuuut

      From the linked article

      Two Democratic consultants who weren’t knowledgeable about Medina’s business or the investigation said someone running an election phone banking or canvassing operation can have multiple phones and computers for volunteers and staff.
