Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) talked about standing up to the FBI and the Department of Justice on Steve Bannon's 'War Room' podcast.
STEVE BANNON: You have a lawless FBI. You've been at the tip of the spear since the you were one of our first guests on 20 January 2021. You said, hey. Where the Biden administration is gonna be inside the constitution and work with the we'll work with them. Where they're outside the constitution, we're gonna hammer them, and you've hammered them more than any other state AG.
What can be done now when you see the lawlessness of these folks?
TEXAS ATTORNEY GENERAL KEN PAXTON: So this is what happened to me three and a half years ago. I was actually, I got a referral from the Travis County District Attorney to investigate the FBI Department of Justice for corruption, for violating state and federal law. I started that process only to find that the FBI knew about it before I did. They knew about the the referral before I did, and they were already in my office threatening people and scaring the heck out of all of them. And so that's how the whole coup in my office happened.
It was over that issue because I told my staff we are investigating them. I don't care what they do to us. If we can't stand up to the FBI and Department of Justice when they are committing crimes, and they are committing crimes, If I could have finished this investigation, we would have found it, and and we would have at least exposed it even though we would have had to get authority to prosecute it. I guarantee you there, they don't follow any rules anymore.
