I wonder if he took out any home equity loans on any of those properties. In Texas you have to occupy the dwelling as a personal residence to use it as collateral on a home equity loan. He can't claim 3 houses as a primary residence and get a home equity loan. Very curious.
It’s AOK when THEY do it. But don’t you dare do it (or seem to, or be close to thinking it) if you are: A democrat A woman Black Brown Anything but the right flavor of religion
Where’s the Trump outrage and investigation?
Paxton's alledged fraud is as nothing compared to his liegelord Donald Trump.
Here's the REAL MORTGAGE FRAUDSTER!
But no investigation in to mortgage fraud????
Ohp. Where is the investigation?
Crap lets not tell Pulte.
It's wrong, but this has been what Americans have been doing forever, unfortunately. It shouldn't be a huge issue, but it's magnified because of the hypocrisy of Lettitia James and Adam Schiff. The old saying about not throwing stones if you live in a glass house couldn't be more accurate.
And I’m sure that the Feds will be getting right on that.
So he lied on the actual mortgage contract, not the mortgage application as is the accusation against Cook. Can some intrepid reporter find out how many Trump minions and relatives and apparatchiks did the same? Please!
That's so he could keep his OTHER two wives away from the original one.
Every accusation is a confession.
Well, like WaPo says, a little mortgage fraud is okay when you’re a republican.
So, that would be one for each Mistress? Oh wait, he's from Texas, not Utah!
Isn't that the same "fraud" Lisa Cook is alleged to have committed? Shouldn't Trump ask Paxton to resign?
So don't throw stones, especially in glass White Houses. 🚬😎
Sounds like an episode of Mormon wives
Ken paxton.....texass!
I’m sorry, but all the non-crooked Republicans across the entire country need to grow a spine, stand up, and demonstrate loudly and publicly against the criminals in their midst. I mean, truly, have you no self respect? It remains astonishing that we are here, with lawlessness rampaging. Cuz of you.
There’s no such thing as a non-crooked republican. Not anymore.
William Pulte and Ed Martin will be all over this one, I’m sure. Which of the three houses will Martin start staking out?
The caucasity
Texas republicans don't care. He's a known criminal, and they vote for him anyway. republicans love electing criminals.
#NoPaxton!!!! Never!! 👎🤬🤬🤬🤬
Republicans can do it.
Didn’t Kevin McCarthy do something shady with residences and voting?
I'm sure Chip Roy thanked you for your work on this, right?
Former major leaguer Mark Texiera is running for his congressional seat…
As an R or D?
“Baseball” - go with the probability. 😉
If you need more variables, his dad was a military officer, Mark has $213M in career earnings, and he’s running in Chip Roy’s gerrymandered district.
Special thanks to the investigative reporter who brought out this story
if there is some real leaders in america justifying getting rid of all these horrible people is easy they think they can get away with everything because they are rich
Seems pretty illegal!
Wait a minute! This is the false claim they're going after Dems for, and it's the Republicans that are commiting mortgage fraud. I'm so sick of the reversal of everything and the gaslighting. I'm so sick of them. Isn't Paxton supposed to be in prison? Somebody end this insanity NOW!
Every accusation is a confession
Of course he did. The guy is a total sleaze.
Pulte is going to jump on this... never
Is he any relation to the home builders Pulte?
Grandfather was founder of the real estate company. He is now a mini Trump, working in the housing administration, trying to find ways to charge Democrats with mortgage fraud as a way to exact revenge for Trump. He is a fucking pig.
Birds of a feather offend together...
Thanks. God, they’re all connected.💰💰💰💰
Totally corrupt.
He will fit in perfectly.
Paxton has already set precedent that the law doesn’t pertain to him.
I'm sure that many of us primarily live in three homes.
These Republicans believe the rules only apply to other people, not them. We need major reform in our politics with major consequences for crooked politicians.
Yet another fucking conman who is a GOP politician.
😡😡😡
He's a picture of corruption. He's another crook, who like Trump, has friends who keep him from being prosecuted. Imagine an Attorney General who thinks less of the law than some crook who has been in jail for 50 years.
One for each of his mistresses!
You can only have one primary home. Its in the word definition
Might wanna rethink that Senate-run, Paxton. If a Democrat wins the election for AG, it won't matter if you win the Senate seat: you'll be under investigation right away and may lose the seat. At best, you're better off staying AG.
A friend of mine who lives in Dallas said he hopes Paxton wins the primary because he’ll get clobbered in the general election. I hope Dems get a Senate seat in TX.
Texas MAGAt politicians are all corrupt.
do not care the man is a racist anal pore
The racist white Americans (the KKK) have always been a criminal element in our society. They believe they are above the law because when they are in office, or are Sheriffs etc they use the law to shelter their own criminality. The thousands of lynchings and lack of accountability proves this out.
Only little people obey the law.
Where does Paxton vote? Precinct of main 1, main 2, or main 3?
(All 3, probably)
Well, well, well...
That is called fraud. But he will skate...Texas loves felons ..white ones anyway.
C'mon, Bondi. Follow the script. Mortgage fraud. You know what to do. Good for the goose ...
In the biblical sense?
In his defence, he did have a different spouse in each.
The hypocrisy is never ending. 🤦🏻♀️
#ReleaseEpsteinTrumpFiles
Is there anybody in Texas enforcing multimillion dollar tax fraud? Ken? Maybe you'd know who's in charge of that?
Lists and cheats
Someone needs to ask the demon disguise as Paxton what his name is!
TIMELINE: Texas General Ken Paxton’s legal troubles www.click2houston.com/news/local/2...
Texas AG Ken Paxton is shielding details about his real estate buying spree from the state -2024 www.kut.org/2024-09-18/t... Board Releases Trial Evidence That Included Paxton’s Austin Address - 2023 thetexan.news/paxton_impea...
He's scum. I can't believe any woman would EVER have an affair with that freak of nature.
He's been getting away with crimes for years. Can't believe he can hold a public office of any kind. Think his wife recently filed for divorce.
Yes, she finally did. It took the AFFAIR to get her to leave! NOT the corruption and criminal activity! He was tried and convicted of crimes! Trump pardoned him, and I think Abbott did, too.
Do as I say, not as I do.
the Republican motto
Or more accurately "soon to be ex-wife", as she's filed for divorce on the grounds of his adultery. Ken Paxton is scum.
They also violate tax laws by claiming primary residence on all 3. There’s a reason he was under indictment and was under impeachment. That is until he grifted his way out of it. This guy is the dictionary version of corrupt, wife too.
Oh well, he's a shoe-in for Senator then. Deceitful!
How could I have missed Trump’s Truth Social post about this?!?
Well, well, isn’t it amazing what little details can come out in a divorce
Also, you are taxed less for property tax on a declared home. Do they cheat on their tax return as well?
Most probably…if”Christian” Paxton Can cheat on his wife for years🤷♀️. Add Paxton cheating tactics for yrs to TX voters on gerrymandering.
Yes it’s automatically cheating- he gets 3 homestead exemptions
Multiple personalities require multiple residences
Of course, it's the Trumplican Party way. The laws aren't for them.
Look what MO is doing. Great if you own multiple properties. All you need to do is look at this guy
WTF 🤬
I bet he voted at all three residences as well.
We have homelss & starving children how the eff is that possible?
Fire him for mortgage fraud.
Go get 'em! And the others in congress who ran in a district they dont live in.
Crooks, liars, and charlatans!
Republican Law & Order 🙄🙄🫠🫠🫠🤥🤥🤥🫡
FRAUD, LIARS, BUT SUCH CHRISTIANS
And another one bites the dust
This appears to be intentional fraud unlike with either Schiff or Scott and how to compel prosecution of an AG already pretty infamous—ethically?? An ethics complaint to bar license is appropriate. But also is warranted for the animus has exhibited towards trans and the racially minoritized.
How about an indictment!😃
Crimers gonna crime. It’s all they know.
Mortgage fraud! LOCK HIM UP! Skip the due process, slam the door and throw away the key!
SHOCKING i say..... SHOCKING. Trump is a convicted felon, who surrounds himself and aligns himself with other people who exhibit potential and actual criminal behavior. When it's all said and done, you'll find that a lot of Trump and GOP members have committed all kinds of criminal activities.
He’s a criminal so it only makes sense. Hold all criminals accountable but mostly the politicians and white collar because they never do and they continue to steal our $ and freedom for more $.
📌
And still nothing will ever happen.
amazing that the Republicans don't want you to say gay and they want to destroy all the lgbtq information yet @kenpaxton.bsky.social 's getting divorced for having sex with a man or having an affair with a man and most of the Republicans are bisexual if not trisexual or just right out homosexual
Well, he's a white male and trump sycophant, so no problem. 😡
The hypocrisy of MAGA is next level; truly outstanding (in all the worst ways)
He’s also was indicted for securities fraud and pleaded out. His own senior AG staff accused him of "bribery, abuse of office and other crimes." So far his race, wealth & power have combined to shield him from consequences of his lack of character. IMO.
I’m still trying to figure out how Florida elected Rick Scott after his Medicare fraud. You’d think committing crimes would make one ineligible for government office.
Tells ya something about Florida, doesn't it? Carl Hiaasen seems to capture its essence, near as I can tell. www.amazon.com/s?k=carl+hia...
Or, a prerequisite for the GOP.
They admire him. If they could get away with the same crimes, they'd commit them.
Good for him, Texans keep allowing it.
They're using him as Trump's golfing bodydouble aren't they.
Cheaters gonna cheat, lying liars that lie are gonna lie.
And if anyone knows Texas homestead laws, you are allowed ONE homestead, not three: Texas law specifies that a homestead exemption, which reduces a home's taxable value for property taxes, can only be applied to your single, principal residence.
I bet they claim homestead exemptions for property taxes on at least 2 of the properties. Another state felony...
STOP VOTING THEM BACK IN OFFICE!😡
1000% piece of garbage. Texas does not need anymore of the GOP bullshit. They are all criminals. Lock them up!!
That's the least of his crimes
So he's not corrupt then. Goodo. Let him redraw your maps good Texans.
We can hold our breath for consequences the third of never.
douche bag thy name is Ken Paxton
Talk about MORTGAGE FRAUD. It is in Texas not the Fed!! Pulte where are you?? Hanging with Scooby??!?
Am I the only person who hasn’t committed mortgage fraud?
Challenge that vote for sure!
It is lawful for citizens to individually challenge votes in a handful of states. It is also possible to request your state representatives/government officials to challenge as well. Find out how here under the voter suppression tactics state by state drop down: Ultimatevoterguide.info
The crimes guy did more crimes?
The surprise would be if Ken faced consequences 🤦🏻♀️
They are all crooks
Every damn one.
Not surprising. What's also not surprising is he'll walk. Nothing will happen.
It's a biblical thing
Crucify his ass, over this !!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬. Let his soon to be ex-wife reveal the rest
Slope eye is a piece of shit!
Let it go....they always win, consequences don't apply to them, it's just the way the American justice system is.....just let it go.
Yet its the Democrats who they claim commit mortgage fraud
And that’s ok with the corrupt GQP MAGA cult
The hypocrisy is astounding!
This goes beyond disgusting..👎
Uh duh lazy eyes did something illegal the man is corrupt as hell. But nothing will happen to him cause he is rich and white.
Great. He’s either illiterate or another corrupt SOB.
And not a GD thing will be done about it. Besides the lawlessness, it’s the hypocrisy that infuriates me.
So true
They keep voting for him. I wish they would secede.
Mexico would sweep in and repatriate us (TX) within a few months. I would feel much better with Sheinbaum as my president...
I’d give about anything to swap presidents.
Texas would never make it as a country, especially once a Democrat is President. It can’t even keep the electricity on FFS.
They talk about it enough. They act like it’s a threat.🙄🤡
I’d LOVE to be the Democratic president when Texas secedes. I’d blockade their ports, cut their rail lines, bulldoze every highway leading out, and establish a no-fly zone over the entire state. We’d see how self sufficient those clowns really are.
The biggest thing in Texas is their talk.
THEN declare war on them, destroy them mercilessly, and take the stae back as a US territory with all the taxes and no representation.
Fantastic idea, the red states have been receiving reparations from the north for far to long, they're all recipient states, living off of the Blue Donor States.
Love that.
I would too except for the fact that Texas is indeed slowly turning blue and that is why the republicans are desperate to gerrymander-to hold it off. Those blue dots there need to be honored (& multiplied) for what they are going through.
Great point. Texas was created by minority rule.
Y’all do realize there are plenty of Democrats in the state, right? Almost all of the urban areas vote Democratic, the rural folk and all the gerrymandering at the state level are what ruins it.
There are 8 million democrats in Texas. Does not include children
It’s hyperbole and symbolism to make a point. Puerto Rico and DC are experiencing it right now.
"bUt wHaT aBoUt tEh dEmOcRaT vOtErS?!" is not an excuse to continue to allow fascism to thrive
If Texas negates Democrat voters, isn't that the same result as becoming a territory for those dems? We could take and divide it into two or three territories and watch them grow to statehood!
I'm rural, own/operate a ranch and farm and have voted democratic for the last 32 years in Texas. as @snowbuni.bsky.social says, please don't paint all of us the broad brush - we #resist and oppose #corruption as much as possible, but the deck is stacked. We continue to press for reforms.
Exactly. There are many Dems in Texas who don’t wish to secede from the United States. We’re trying hard to get representation.
If you're bot gonna arm up to take back representation, how bout leaving? Aren't Texans supposed to be rugged individualists who can overcome any obstacle?
Wouldn’t have to do a thing. Their budget is underwater. They would be bankrupt in a year. Unless they put a door on that wall on the southern border
And Force them to sell all the "Vacation" homes in Santa Fe, where they don't pay taxes.
😂😂
If you would like to inflict the maximum punishment we could do to all of those hateful bigots in Texas, give Texas back to Mexico and make all of those bigots Mexican citizens and not let them back in! 😄
Sell it to Mexico.
Give it to Mexico. No warranty.
Do y'all who are so eager to destroy Texas realize that 46% of the registered voters are democratic, but they were gerrymandered so badly that only 13 of the 38 districts let any democrats there have a semblance of representation AND NOW they only have 8! But yeah, fuck all those people, eh?
You already posted this shit and I already responded.
What’s up with Texans? They keep voting for these creeps continually. Do they not value their lives & this country?
A huge swath is indoctrinated by Fox News. Nothing will change in America until Rupert dies.
Rupert deserves to rot in hell, but MAGA is: - Putin and Russian mafia (Trump family is in deep) - Ultra-rich fascists: democracy is an inconvenience - Businessmen (MEN): indifferent to fascism if they think it will make them money, just like 1930s. - Bigots - Gullible Fox "News," X, podcast morons
Read much? Texas elections are rigged. There are more democrats than retards
There are more Democrats in Texas than Republicans. They are systemically disenfranchised. If your vote doesn't count for most things, AND it's hard to even get to a polling place, you generally don't vote.
Texas seceding from the Union isn't the flex they think it is. Mexico is welcome to have it back. It would probably become more livable. 🇲🇽
Mortgage Fraud! Get him!
Interesting!!!
No charges will be coming for this criminal. He won't lose his position. What is the difference between this old piece of scum and Lisa Cook?
Slime
What about the securities fraud charges?
Now ask the Republicans if they care. They have no high ground left to stand on; they lost the needle for their moral compass, and can just kiss my ass.
This man should have already been convicted for insider trading and sec fraud.
A GOP elected official is not on the up and up? NO WAY! Are two of the houses being used for Epstein List folks to help with their pedophilia?
Thank you for taking care of the facts of reality that most people do not understand
Politics, it’s just a big fucking grift, irregardless of country. We need to start election politicians, not elites.
The entire Republican Party really is "One set of rules for me, another set for thee", ain't it?
That didn’t go well for the gop guy running in MI last time.
Do as I say!! Republicans are above the law. They believe that the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity applies to all republicans.
if he wins the primary it will tell you everything you need to know about tx repubs, while cornyn is no prize this one is a lowlife felon and all around sleaze
Of course. 🙄
Uh, that's fraud.
Ah HA!!! Right on Marc.
You would think Trump should be the last person to want the topic of mortgage fraud being in the news. He added a non-existent floor to one of his buildings, and 80 fictional acres to a winery to get larger loans against the properties That's a lot more "fraud" than lying to get a good interest rate
He’s never held accountable for anything. I don’t think he gives a shit
He will die of old age before he's held accountable for anything that he hasn't already been held accountable for. The good news is that every debtor like E Jean Carroll, and NYC get's what Trump owes them before the kids get an inheritance.
Oopppss
Sadly not surprised. Ken Paxton has avoided jail throughout his life by his wealth and white privilege. He should have been in jail.
Is he being investigated like schiff, James, and one other person?
Ken Paxton is and has always been, one of the most successful GOP CRONIC CRIMINALS IN TEXAS!! He would fuck over his own Mother or newborn for a WIN! Sound like anyone else?! Leave NO ASS UNKISSED!
Fuck that guy he's a crook.
Hey Pulte go after this guy he should lose his job too
That’s lying for profit = mortgage fraud.
Hypocrisy & lawlessness is the republican way of life.
Merely trappings of the “entitled” - Nothing to see here; move along
Ken Paxton who has never fully faced those chares from years ago on coruption ? Will some day one way or another. Karma I do believe is planing a giant crater to throw him in he will never dig hiself out of in a million years.
How many does McCormick claim? Pennsylvania Senator that I am sure lives in his mansion in Connecticut not in Pennsylvania!
Do an audit now.
Wow, he'll have to do better than that. That level of dishonesty would only just qualify him to be a Republican senator/ criminal.
Double mortgage fraud.
He can explain. Please stay in the Senate race, Ken! Dems need you
A Republican cheating on his taxes??? Say it ain't so! /sarcasm
Look at mortgage fraud.
That’s mortgage fraud.
Indeed. Be careful what you prosecute for if you are a grifting, hypocritical dirt bag.
Same guy who is devising laws to install the 10 Commandments in all classrooms when he himself committed adultery three times
Soooo many liars. These people need to be held accountable.
No they don't. They need to be SEVERELY PUNISHED. "Held accountable" is a weak weasel phrase.
Then, make your own post instead of attempting to belittle them. Tho, I'm guessing rhetoric and driving wedges is the point, and you spend more time attacking the opposition party/factions than you do the far right. Accurate?
I'm trying to get the milquetoasterie to stop
I don't think that comment was belittling so much as just joking around. "He's a bum! "No he's a huge bum!"
Yes. They had a chance and finally looked like he was out until too much money changed too many minds.
So is saying “ shootings” “ shooter” “ a shooting” It’s slaughter, murderer and mass murder…
WE MUST TAKE ACTION 9-1-2025 EVERYONE WATCH & DO THIS youtu.be/CFIL5xrIjHg?...
Every time you think they can’t be more corrupt . . .
Ken is a serial cheater! Pity his family!
His wife deserves him. Another crook.
Wonder how he became a General… no integrity!
"I don't call that criminal. I call that 'smart.' (paraphrasing a nameless politician. Unless you do it. Then it's criminal.
Or a lawbreaking clown?
Aren't Republicans going after a Democrat for owning two houses? Hypocrite twatwaffles.
What a effing a$$hole!!!!!!!!!
He was to corrupt for Texas Republicans, think about that shit.
Oh the irony...what if #MSM mentioned this every time they retooted trump's rhetoric?
Let’s go!!
whoopsie .. I'm sure it was an oversight that this wasn't referred along with the democrats who heard from DOJ recently. Perhaps a second batch of referrals?
Wow! He is like an Amoeba! 3 homes at once?!
Texan here. Paxton was a crook in republican political leadership long before Donny Taco. He is as greasy, sleazy as he looks.
Maybe one is his primary residence, one is his ex-wife’s primary residence, and the third is his mistress’s.
🤣🤣🤣 of course he did.
Now we know where the bogus Mortgage Fraud accusations by trump actually belong...his MAGAts, not the Fed Chair
He's a dirty dog.
Still waiting for Captain Bonespurs to demand he resign
disgraceful-no integrity
I see the AP story about Paxton's improper claims that each of 3 big houses were his "principal residence" does not mention (though it does mention other crimes) that he has, as AG, routinely wasted taxpayer money in frivolous suits against the feds AND has routinely interfered in elections
by throwing out (as he bragged publicly) "millions of votes" to ensure Republican wins...primarily targeting Black, but also Hispanic voters. He has illegally purged the voting rolls at times, with improper or no notice to affected voters.
Fraud
Let's see how fast corrupt AG Pamela Bondi attacks this corrupt scumbag.
Hypocrites often shield themselves from consequences while imposing rules on others, which undermines fairness and accountability. Ultimately, hypocrisy compromises integrity—and without integrity, both personal and political actions lose legitimacy.
Sounds like real, not imagined, mortgage fraud.
That seems like mortgage fraud, but I’m sure he can get away with it.
His people don't care. He was elected and reelected with indictments
There we go
More than Lisa Cook, Adam Schiff
Crook
Hypocrisy 101 😡
Color me unsurprised. #RepublicansCheatToWin
Prison should be his main residence.
Best response.
I was thinking the Texas State Cemetery, but prison will do in a pinch.
Short-term solution, but we’ll take it.
I like the way you think
🎯💯
Wait? Isn’t that mortgage fraud? Asking for my friend Lisa.
And tax fraud, if he claimed a homestead exemption on more than one
Exhausted! Love the chosen name.
Sounds kinda fraudish.
