It’s dirty laundry day for Republicans. Now, before we get into their dirty laundry, let’s admit politics is a dirty business. In fact, it’s practically impossible anymore to get involved in it without being soiled by it. I believe it was the late Texas Senator John Tower, after being rejected as President George H. Bush’s nominee for Secretary of Defense, over allegations of alcohol abuse and womanizing, who said that political candidates don’t come from monasteries. Well, I’d just like to find a few who didn’t climb out from under a slimy rock somewhere. With this said, let me add one more caveat to today’s Time Capsule. Ken Paxton, the Attorney General of the state of Texas and present candidate for the United States Senate, has admitted to having an affair with a Senate aid in 2023. Paxton’s wife subsequently divorced him in 2025, claiming to have done so on the Biblical grounds of adultery. Obviously, there is no excuse or justification for Paxton’s sin, just as there is no excuse or justification for our sins. Therefore, the following should not be miscued by anyone as a whitewashing of the sin of adultery or as an exoneration of Ken Paxton's infidelity.
Tuesday, the Republican senatorial primary election in Texas resulted in a forced runoff, between the top two vote getters, incumbent Senator John Cornyn and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. Neither Cornyn nor Paxton got more than 50% of the vote, which was required to win the primary. Cornyn received 41.9%, Paxton 40.7%, and Wesley Hunt 13.5%. One would assume that Hunt voters, like Paxton voters, are disgruntled with longtime Senator John Cornyn, who has proved himself time and time again to be a RINO and Benedict Arnold to conservatism. If this is the case, then, Paxton’s chances of winning the runoff election are excellent. However, there is a snag thrown into the race by both the GOP and our president.
The GOP is putting all of its money, which amounts to millions of dollars, behind John Cornyn, the longtime RINO, who often sided with the Biden Administration, not behind the staunch conservative candidate Ken Paxton, who sued the Biden Administration 106 times. In addition to this, our president has now announced that he is ready to finally endorse one of the two candidates, as well as call on the unendorsed candidate to immediately drop out of the race.
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out who Donald Trump is about to endorse. It’s John Cornyn, the RINO. Consequently, Trump is about to call on Ken Paxton to drop out of the race and to go silently into the night. The reasoning behind this is supposedly that Cornyn has the far better chance of winning the general election, because of his appeal to moderate voters and Independents, while Paxton is liable to lose the general election, because of all of his so-called baggage. But what exactly is Paxton's baggage? Here, is where this story gets really intriguing, not to mention sinister.
Republicans, not Democrats, did the same thing to Ken Paxton in Texas that Democrats tried to do twice to Donald Trump in Congress; namely, impeach him from office on scurrilous charges. United RINOs in the Texas House of Representatives, spearheaded by former President George W. Bush, his political guru, Karl Rove, Texas Senator John Cornyn, Paxton’s current political opponent, and Dade Phelan, the Republican Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives, voted to impeach Ken Paxton on May 27, 2023. However, Paxton was acquitted of all 16 unsubstantiated charges brought against him by the Texas House by the Texas Senate, but not until after a stampede of Texas RINOs tried to politically trample Paxton to death. So when you hear of all of the baggage Ken Paxton is bringing into his bid for the United States Senate, you need to realize that what RINOs, like Paxton’s opponent, John Cornyn, are really talking about is the trumped-up, uncorroborated, and dismissed charges that a political lynch mob in Texas attempted to use to string up this very courageous conservative.
Finally, and please don’t miss this part, Paxton has now shown his mettle, as well as his sincere conservatism and patriotism, by offering to voluntarily drop out of the Senate race in Texas, even before he is called upon by the Cornyn-endorsing Trump to do so. However, Paxton has a condition, before he will drop out of the Senate race every spineless RINO currently serving in the Senate must join with true conservatives to end the Senate filibuster, in order to pass the SAVE America Act, which will protect the future integrity of our elections, by requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote and a photo ID to vote and cast a ballot. I love this; it’s high noon in Washington DC! Ken Paxton has called out the RINOs. He is demanding that for once they show up for a showdown and not backdown to Democrats. When the smoke clears from Paxton’s pistol, it won’t surprise me at all if there is not one RINO in sight, the Senate filibuster is still in place, the SAVE America Act is still not passed, and RINOs, along with our president, are all still calling on this conservative gunslinger, Ken Paxton, to ride off into the sunset.
