I was ripped off by a gold company in Texas. The guy running the place absconded with millions in cash and bullion. He screwed me out of $7,000 and I was not a major victim in the case.
This AG cut a sweetheart deal with the guy. I ended up getting $240 back.
Turned out the crook was a major contributor to Paxton’s PAC
I am thrilled he is getting the boot.
You should have invested in an oil deal. All the gold is in California in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills in somebody else’s name.
Surrrrre.
Sure you did.
I don’t believe you.
Ken Paxton reviewed the election machines and prevented their certification in Texas iirc.
He’s a hero.
A patriot.
You ?
Not so much.
Really, be careful about saying you were so snookered by a gold guy. He spent it and there was just nothing left to recover.
It might sound to others that you are incredibly stupid and gullible.
I am a Texan slightly to the right of Attila the Hun (as Rush would have said — I miss Rush. RIP.)
But I very much think that Paxton is corrupt to the core. There has been so much stink on him for all of these years, but he has enough friends in Collin County (north of Dallas) to have kept the heat from all the smoke away from him.
The stuff with the “real estate investor” (the guy’s name is Nate Paul) is allegedly just as shady as it comes. I’m going to use the word allegedly a lot! He has been allegedly associated with Mexican drug cartel money. He’s allegedly defrauded his investors in his real estate projects. He’s allegedly perjured himself before Travis County judges and federal bankruptcy judges related to foreclosure proceedings. He is allegedly the target of some serious FBI investigations (I know, I am as suspicious of the FBI as any of you!) related to the above allegations. The word I’ve heard in Texas is that whole objective of this impeachment exercise is to get the R’s out in front before a very big scandal hits.
