No more Bushes. No more Clintons. No more Kennedys. No more Carters. No more Nunns. Etc.

New Mexico is run by the Lujan family, and look at what the Governor just did!

Ha! My House rep voted for it. But the House wasn’t presented with evidence or lack thereof.

Wonder if that Not Guilty verdict in Michigan a couple of days ago had anything to do with this voting?

Prior to his attempt to unseat Paxton as attorney general, George P. Bush was Texas land commissioner after being elected in 2014. Before this, he founded the real estate equity firm Pennybacker Capital and St. Augustine Partners, an oil and gas consulting firm, in 2007.

By 2020, Austin real estate investor Nate Paul, a central figure in the impeachment proceedings against Paxton, had several of his properties raided by law enforcement, his assets frozen, and eventually, his properties foreclosed on.

Despite several attempts to forestall the foreclosure auctions, his properties went to the auction block in 2021. All of the properties were won by “entities connected to two powerful real estate firms: Karlin Real Estate LLC and Pennybacker Capital,” per the Austin Business Journal.

Additionally, potential bidders “complained they weren’t allowed to bid on the World Class properties because trustees would only [accept] cashier’s checks … which multiple attendees said was atypical at foreclosure sales.”

As previously noted, Pennybacker Capital, which acquired the building that housed Paxton associate Nate Paul’s headquarters, was founded by Bush. The firm had also filed a nearly $16 million claim on Paul’s company during the bankruptcy proceedings for another property, but it was dismissed in court.

A few years before Pennybacker bought Paul’s properties, Bush in his capacity as land commissioner in 2017 reportedly used the General Land Office (GLO) to invest around $75 million from the Texas Permanent School Fund into his real estate company. The GLO controls the Real Estate Special Fund Account “to invest in real property on behalf of the Permanent School Fund.”

Bush also used the GLO to retain Johnny Sutton’s law firm, Ashcroft, for legal services worth nearly $180,000 in 2022 alone.

I think having their phone lines melted contributed, for sure.
