AUSTIN, Texas — FBI agents have issued at least one federal subpoena for records from the Texas attorney general's office in an ongoing investigation into allegations against Attorney General Ken Paxton.

Sources confirmed to KVUE the requests for information were issued on Wednesday at the agency's headquarters on West 14th Street. It was not immediately clear how many subpoenas were issued or what information federal agents sought.

The investigation started after top Paxton aides alleged to the FBI in early October they believe Paxton may be committing crimes that include abuse of office and bribery in his dealings with Austin investor Nate Paul.

The group claimed Paxton took a number of steps to benefit Paul, whose offices were raided by the FBI last year. Those steps included hiring an outside investigator to investigate Paul's assertion that the FBI violated his constitutional rights during the raid.

"Those steps included hiring an outside investigator to investigate Paul's assertion that the FBI violated his constitutional rights during the raid."

THAT's a crime ?!? Time to disband the FBI.

Love the timing. “ We don’t see ANY hint of election fraud and won’t really look into it.”
2 days after Paxton file to the SCOTUS to challenge the states involved in fraud
“ Come with us sir! This is something we were handled 10 mins ago and you need to be interagated for a perjury trap we are setting up for you.!”

Why am I reminded of Austin Dem DA Ro nnie Earl’s prosecution of Republican House Majority leader Tom DeLay? It took Earl three grand juries to get the charges he wanted, he go his conviction, but it was thrown out on appeal.

This smells big of a deep state political prosecution.

Sadly, our AFGE punks are trash.

HOPING this is a ruse given there are a LOT of bad actors. They need to show the bad actors the FBI is on their side. Paxton is no actor he doesn't seem to upset about it.
I know the FBI's history.. I'm just hoping they're not siding with the chicoms. They can't be that bad.

This proves to me that:

“The Fooks, Blaggards, and Idjits Agency” are all, all of them, every last one of them, nogoodnik, apparatchiks of those that have no good intentions, desires, nor love for America, and are all just a bunch of gov’mint employees sucking up tax money, and drunk with power!!!
