Texas Attorney General Vows To Fight Biden’s Imminent ‘Illegal & Unconstitutional’ Actions

After politely congratulating the new US president, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton vowed to fight tooth and nail against Joe Biden’s “illegal” and “unconstitutional” actions.

Hours after the new commander-in-chief was sworn in, Paxton issued a statement which read:

“Congrats, President Biden. On Inauguration Day, I wish our country the best,”

It then continued:

I promise my fellow Texans and Americans that I will fight against the many unconstitutional and illegal actions that the new administration will take, challenge federal overreach that infringes on Texans’ rights, and serve as a major check against the administration’s lawlessness. Texas First! Law & Order always!

RT reports: The withering statement came some two hours after Biden’s inauguration in the nation’s capital, where he was sworn in by US Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. Among his first acts in office, Biden signed a flurry of executive orders, some reversing actions taken by his predecessor, while others aimed to address the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the environment and immigration.

While some House and Senate Republicans have already made efforts to extend an olive branch to the new administration, many remain vocally opposed to Biden’s agenda and the ‘unity’ message struck in his first address – particularly lawmakers from the Lone Star State. Within moments of Biden’s swearing-in, Texas Senator John Cornyn blasted the president for his plans to revoke the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline, saying it would only “kick the industry further down the well.”

A spokesman for Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw, meanwhile, said Biden’s “actions on day one, the list of executive orders he plans to sign, certainly do not signal a sense of humility and unity that Rep. Crenshaw would have liked to see.”

More broadly, large swaths of Republican voters view Biden’s election win as illegitimate, with nearly half of all party members polled saying that Trump “rightfully won” the race and that Biden took office on a “rigged” victory. In his inaugural speech, the new president dismissed the election fraud claims, urging the country to “reject the culture in which facts themselves are manipulated and even manufactured” while vowing to “defend the truth and defeat the lies.”

  1. Here in 2975 a celebrity madame Shirley Finn was murdered. Executed in her car. She was Catholic and had made headlines for entertaining Elton John at her swish South Perth home. She had been married with 3 kids but had turned lesbuan and was with a female who after the murder lived across the road from me The news coverage forever since the murder has gone “unsolved” has repeated the same story that Shirley was being used to launder proceeds of crime money for topbcops and politicians They all were of her church That’s all. They included Victoria’s most decorated and “heroic cop Roger Rogers on who is the star if the movie series titled Blue Murder. He is a guest at her Majesty’s hotel now finally after he pushed his luck with his murdering drug trafficking money laundering as a government operative too farx.

    • Same here Badger Badgerism, Everything China Joe does is null and void .. He means absolutely zero to me as well. He’s violated several Amendments to the US Constitution; thus, I won’t comply .. He’s not my President.
