Whistleblowers and Federal Scrutiny
Last May saw a landslide vote in the Texas House to impeach Paxton. Central to the charges is Paxton’s alleged rapport with Nate Paul. Claims of sham investigations and concealed allegations further entangle the narrative, with a hefty 4,000-page document shedding light on the matter.
Amidst this local maelstrom, a broader storm brews: a U.S. Department of Justice inquiry into Paxton’s purported office abuses is in progress. Concurrently, the State Bar of Texas alleges Paxton’s misuse of state assets during the 2020 Presidential Election disputes.
Paul’s narrative isn’t devoid of turbulence either. He is currently battling eight federal accusations linked to fraudulent statements on loan applications.
