The left loves their whistleblowers as long as the whistle is only blown on Republicans. Otherwise they want them thrown in jail.

John Cornyn and Jeb Bush strike back at Paxton to save George P Bush’s Texas AG run.

When did the FBI get the authority to issue subpoenas?

I must have been sleeping when they changed the Constitution to mention the FBI as a part of the Judiciary.

Dear FBI,

I’m busy right now with this election lawsuit deal. I will be back in touch when I have some free time.

Best wishes, and say hi to Comey and Hillary for me.

Ken Paxton

George P. Bush Mulling Run for Texas Attorney General in 2022

https://thetexan.news/george-p-bush-mulling-run-for-texas-attorney-general-in-2022/

Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush may be preparing for a primary challenge against Attorney General Ken Paxton to be the state’s attorney in 2022.
First reported by the Texas Scorecard, Ash Wright, Bush’s senior political advisor, did not rule out the possibility that Bush might be looking to change offices during the next election.

“Several donors have asked Commissioner Bush to consider running for Attorney General in 2022 in light of the recent allegations about that office,” said Wright. “Commissioner Bush has always said he will ‘keep all options open’ and that remains his policy. Like many conservative leaders around the state, he is very concerned about the allegations regarding Paxton.”

That's a VERY good point! But we have to consider the source from the FAKE NEWS, THE HILL.

Paxton, however, has denied any wrongdoing and said that “after reviewing the claims made by former employees of this office, their allegations are overblown, based upon assumptions, and to a large degree misrepresent the facts.”

When Paxton ran for AG I seem to remember this matter as coming from someone who was a long time political rival. It was dealt with at the time as just that.

They may as well give it up as I doubt anyone with the last name "Bush" could be elected by conservatives in Texas these days.

Besides, if Paxton's lawsuit in the SC goes well, he'll forever be a hero in Texas.

Exactly, the timing is very suspicious. Also, when is the corrupt FBI going to go after corrupt Dem AGs, there appear to be a bunch of them using their office for political prosecutions. The FBI needs to be disbanded, it is no longer an ethical or honest organization but one that is totally political.
