Paxton Caught TARGETING Voters as SENATE BID COLLAPSES!!!

Attorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian cover Texas AG Ken Paxton's voter intimidation campaign targeting Latino communities while he runs for U.S. Senate. Paxton's office has raided homes of elderly activists, Democratic candidates, and elected officials, seizing phones and computers. One target: an 87-year-old volunteer interrogated at 6 a.m. He sued Jolt Initiative, a Latino civic engagement nonprofit, to dissolve its charter for registering voters. U.S. District Judge Robert Pitman ruled Paxton acted in "bad faith," finding the case "supposes absolutely no wrongdoing." A Texas law even criminalized paying volunteers gas money or helping elderly voters fill out ballots. Brian and Shant walk through the legal problems: disparate impact on a protected class, retaliation for First Amendment activity, and equal protection violations. The chilling effect is the point. If Paxton wins, this becomes the model for every state.
