Paxton beats Cornyn. In case anyone needed a reminder, Trump continues to own the GOP.

You ignore how Conservatives routinely get blackballed by Hollywood.

what great conservative sitcoms or variety shows do you know of that were blackballed? Since you deign to declare what is funny and what is not why not suggest some concepts that you think would be funny. Also, who is watching all this crap on tv? Just liberals? Plenty of stuff and junk out there for folks of all political beliefs.
Your conspiracy theories do suggest a certain detachment

The thing is that relatively "conservative" shows do exist. Tim Allen has had successful sitcoms for years.

There just aren't as many conservatives in this line of work as there are liberals. They don't choose to go into it.

Running for political office and grifting is more profitable.
Just ask DJT.

Major TDS. POTUS DJT could have pocketed $1.8 Billion, personally, but chose not to, and to be transparent.

I suppose I would prefer he openly steal from taxpayers (so that more people are made aware of the corruption), but both scenarios are unprecedented and reprehensible.

It's amazing how low the logic has stooped by diehard Trump supporters ... no matter how unprecedented, unethical, or reprehensible Trump's actions.

It's the same logic that says that those who assaulted police officers are due compensation or people the likes of Enrique Tarrio.

This country is broken.

Reprehensible are the Democrat CIA goons conspiring to get him impeached, SpyGate, RussiaGate, rigged elections, assassination, etc. This is another leg, the Democrat IRS officials illegally leaking his tax returns.

P.S. Might Iran have Uranium One (Obama) material?

AIPAC-endorsed John Cornyn (RINO-TX) decisively loses his Senate seat to Ken Paxton (R-TX), just as AIPAC-endorsed Bill Cassidy (RINO-LA) lost two weeks ago. Cornyn outspent Paxton by almost 10-1.

Don’t tell me Thomas Massie (RINO-KY) lost because of money, or even the Jooos.… pic.twitter.com/uDl39YnHvx

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has navigated a succession of major political, financial, and personal scandals throughout his tenure.

These controversies include felony fraud indictments, a historic impeachment trial, multi-million dollar whistleblower judgments, and highly publicized personal indiscretions.

The Nate Paul Scandal & Impeachment

The most significant threat to Paxton's political career stemmed from his relationship with wealthy Austin real estate developer and campaign donor Nate Paul.

Whistleblower Revolt:

In October 2020, eight of Paxton's top senior deputies reported him to the FBI. They accused him of abusing his office, accepting bribes, and misusing state resources to protect Paul from federal scrutiny.

Bipartisan Impeachment: The whistleblower claims prompted the Texas House of Representatives to overwhelmingly vote 12133 to impeach Paxton in May 2023. This marked only the third impeachment of an official in Texas history.

Senate Acquittal: Following a highly publicized two-week trial in September 2023, the Texas Senate acquitted Paxton on all 16 articles of impeachment, immediately restoring him to office.

Federal Investigation Closure: The Justice Department took over the FBI probe into the corruption allegations. However, federal prosecutors quietly declined to bring charges against

Paxton.Whistleblower Retaliation Judgment:

Four of the fired aides sued under the Texas Whistleblower Act. A Travis County judge ruled they were wrongfully terminated and awarded them a $6.6 million judgment.

Securities Fraud Charges

Paxton was indicted on felony securities fraud charges in 2015, mere months after taking office as attorney general.

The Allegations: Prosecutors accused him of misleading investors in a tech startup called Servergy Inc. by soliciting stock investments without disclosing he was being paid by the company.

Pretrial Agreement: The legal battle dragged on for nearly nine years. In March 2024, Paxton reached a pretrial diversion agreement requiring him to complete 100 hours of community service, undergo ethics training, and pay restitution. He did not enter a plea, and the charges were formally dismissed.

Personal Controversies & Divorce

Paxton's personal conduct became heavily intertwined with his professional scandals during his impeachment proceedings.

Extramarital Affair: Impeachment articles alleged Paxton committed bribery by benefiting from Nate Paul's employment of a woman with whom Paxton was having an extramarital affair. His former chief of staff testified that Paxton confessed to the affair in 2018.

Divorce Filings: His wife, Texas State Senator Angela Paxton, filed for divorce, citing adultery and "biblical grounds" after a period of separation.

2020 Election Legal ChallengesFollowing the 2020 presidential race, Paxton emerged as an aggressive champion of efforts to overturn the election results.

Supreme Court Lawsuit: Paxton filed a sweeping lawsuit targeting the election procedures of Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. The U.S. Supreme Court summarily threw the case out due to Texas's lack of standing.

State Bar Ethics Fight: The State Bar of Texas sued Paxton for professional misconduct, alleging he used false and misleading claims in his election filings. The Texas Supreme Court dismissed the disciplinary lawsuit, ruling that sanctioning the attorney general would violate the state's separation of powers.

Yall were the ones to call him king first. I'm just following your lead. Obviously he's not a king and the fact the left made that connection is laughable.

Trump is more of a late/decadent Roman Empire figure like Nero or Caligula than a king.
