Attorney General Ken Paxton on Friday lost his last-minute bid for a court injunction to prevent the federal government from transferring its oversight of internet registrations to an international body.
Hours before the transition was set to take effect, a federal judge in Galveston ruled against Paxton and three other state attorneys general who had asked him to temporarily halt the transfer while they pursue a lawsuit challenging it. The four sued the federal government late Wednesday after Republicans in Congress, led by U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, failed to halt the transfer.
The ruling by Judge George C. Hanks Jr. came after a hearing in Galveston that lasted more than an hour. His reasoning was not immediately known.

The GLOBALIST RATS sort of won a battle. The war is far from over.

At what point is the accumulation of all these lost battles an indication the war has been lost without a shot fired from our side?

Ted Cruz was instrumental in getting this properly addressed.

It’s illegal so President Trump on Jan 20 should tear the agreement up and kick out the foreign interests

The Uniparty wants internet censorship.
The internet has cause them all kinds of grief.
It’s hard to hide the corruption when people have access to information.
