My big idea: A fix the darn country constitutional amendment.

✅Ban partisan gerrymandering
✅Create term limits for Congress and the Supreme Court
✅Overturn Citizens United and get dark and corporate money out of politics
✅Ban stock trading by federal officials

We don't know this man, Doug Whitley, but he's definitely an American hero for writing this excellent letter-to-the-editor.

If you are in Texas and you are considering Voting for Ken Paxton, please just read this post in full before making your final decision:

Everyone else, please share.

Financial misconduct and corruption allegations
- Violated Texas securities law (2014). State regulators reprimanded Paxton and fined him $1,000 for soliciting investment clients without the required registration. This was an established regulatory violation.

- Indicted on three felony charges (2015). Prosecutors accused him of securities fraud and acting as an unregistered investment adviser representative. He denied wrongdoing.

- Accused of misleading investors about commissions. Prosecutors alleged he recruited investors into technology company Servergy without disclosing that he was being compensated.

- Agreed to pay nearly $300,000 to resolve the securities fraud prosecution (2024). His pretrial agreement required restitution, community service and legal ethics education. The criminal charges were subsequently dismissed without a conviction or admission of guilt.

- Impeached by the Republican-controlled Texas House (2023). The House approved 20 articles alleging bribery, abuse of office and other misconduct. The Texas Senate subsequently acquitted him on the 16 articles considered at trial.

- Accused of using the attorney general's office to help wealthy donor Nate Paul. Former senior aides alleged that Paxton intervened in legal matters involving Paul, who had donated to his campaign.

- Accused of using government authority against a donor's enemies. House investigators alleged Paxton pursued investigations targeting people involved in disputes with Paul.

- Accused of interfering with federal investigations. Former aides alleged that Paxton tried to obtain confidential investigative information concerning Paul and obstruct cooperation with law enforcement.

- Accused of accepting expensive home renovations from a donor. Investigators alleged Paul helped fund major renovations to Paxton's Austin home, raising potential bribery questions.

- Accused of making a $122,000 payment to conceal the renovations. Impeachment managers alleged that Paxton transferred money to a Paul-associated company after his relationship with Paul came under investigation. These accusations were not established by a criminal conviction.

Whistleblowers, secrecy and alleged retaliation
- Reported to the FBI by his own senior officials (2020). Seven senior aides reported concerns about possible corruption involving Paxton and Nate Paul.

- Fired or lost multiple whistleblowers. Several officials who raised concerns were fired, resigned or were placed on leave. They alleged unlawful retaliation.

- Agreed to a $3.3 million whistleblower settlement in 2023. Paxton's office negotiated a settlement with four former employees. His request for legislative funding to cover it helped trigger the impeachment investigation. The proposed settlement was not proof of wrongdoing.

- Accused of using a burner phone and secret email accounts. Impeachment investigators alleged he used these methods to conceal communications and meetings with Paul.

- Accused of using a fake name for Uber trips. Investigators alleged an alias was used to conceal trips involving Paul and visits to a woman with whom Paxton was having an affair.

- Accused of avoiding his security detail to conceal activities. House impeachment managers alleged he evaded normal protective arrangements to keep certain meetings and movements secret.

Personal scandals and questionable associations

- Admitted having an extramarital affair. His relationship with a former Senate staffer became a significant issue during impeachment proceedings.

- Accused of benefiting from his donor employing his mistress. Investigators alleged Nate Paul hired the woman with whom Paxton was having an affair, potentially creating a personal benefit linked to official favors.

- His wife filed for divorce citing adultery (2025). State Sen. Angela Paxton filed for divorce after more than 30 years of marriage. The proceedings were subsequently sealed.

- Celebrated New Year's 2025 in Dubai with indicted businessmen. Video showed Paxton at a party with Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail, who were facing federal fraud charges and were outside the United States. Both have pleaded not guilty.

- Accepted approximately $190,000 from a businessman later indicted for fraud. Ahmed contributed that amount to Paxton's political operation, reportedly including $25,000 after his indictment. Accepting a lawful political contribution is not itself proof of misconduct.

- Received a major contribution from a businessman linked to Chinese investment. An October 20, 2026 report identified a $150,000 contribution from Wan Bridge cofounder Ting Qiao, despite Paxton's campaign rhetoric about Chinese influence. The donor connection does not establish an illegal contribution.

Election-related controversies
- Attempted to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Paxton filed a Supreme Court lawsuit seeking to invalidate presidential election results in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin—four states Biden won.

- Promoted unsubstantiated election-fraud allegations. His 2020 lawsuit relied on claims that did not withstand scrutiny. The Supreme Court dismissed the case for lack of standing.

- Faced a State Bar investigation over his election lawsuit. Texas legal disciplinary authorities scrutinized his efforts to overturn the election. The investigation itself is not a finding of professional misconduct.

Dems should have absolutely done that, even in those years when you were a Democrat. I’ll give that. But that’s a pretty weak response when we’ve had a Republican governor for 23 years and you have had a super majority in the legislature for 15 years. The economy you have built is not working for the average Alabamian. We top the list in personal bankruptcies, top of the list in debt collection lawsuits, we’re 7th in the number of folks in poverty, we’re third in the country in having the lowest workforce participation rate, we have almost 20% of the population facing hunger every day, we’re losing farms from one end of the state to the other, we’re losing rural hospitals left and right and healthcare delivery is near the bottom, you’re sucking money out of the education trust fund to go to private schools while the overall quality of public education still ranks near the bottom of all states (even Mississippi) and per pupil spending ranks near the bottom, quality of life consistently ranks at the bottom, the prison system is a disgrace while you rob the education trust fund to build a prison that is costing almost 3 times the original projection, electricity rates are some of the highest in the country while you guys have controlled the PSC for the last 25 years or so, retired teachers can’t get a COLA. And all of this may get worse thanks to “Coach” and his DC policies that have hurt so many in Alabama.

In your economy your rich corporate buddies are doing fine but the rest of Alabama is hurting.

People in Alabama are not stupid. They are not living in the past. They are struggling and they know who has been in charge while Alabama is stuck at the top of most lists that are bad and at the bottom of most that are good. They are ready for change.
