I hate dirty politics and dragging opponents' families into the mud. When it comes to Amy Acton, nobody is discounting childhood trauma. Family mess decades later is deeply painful and hard to untangle. But let’s call this what it is: Her campaign is weaponizing that pain to cover up a blatant pattern of lying. Vivek Ramaswamy's leaked ad featuring her mom wasn't about abuse. It accused Amy of having a lifelong pattern of lying. So why did her campaign's response to the ad fail to address that issue? Maybe.. because her mom is right. Back in September, Amy and her team claimed an "armed man lunged at her, injuring multiple people" at a fair. Which led to her pushing for felony charges against the man. But even the prosecutor admitted that video evidence showed he wasn’t close to her, no weapon was drawn, and no major injuries could be seen. And speaking of moms, in August, her own campaign issued a press release directly attacking Vivek’s mother, claiming she helped manipulate clinical trial data. We have to be mature enough to hold two truths at once: we can have deep compassion for a child who suffered real family trauma and still demand basic honesty from a grown politician who wants to run our state.

AG Todd Blanche: They accuse me of not being independent from the White House. I'm not. I work for Trump.

Why do you have a Ukraine flag. This is America, and Zelensky is notorious for money laundering. Great job.

You won't see Paxton signs because the crazy liberals will steal them or vandalize their property. You see Jimmy and Gina signs because conservatives just want everyone to know where the crazy people live.
