No amount of spin will save Ken Paxton from offering a child rapist one day in jail. The judge forced it to 60, and the guy still walked out in 29. He's unfit to serve in the Senate.

This is corruption of the highest order. Susan Collins delivered millions in taxpayer dollars for a corrupt donor bankrolling her campaign, and then Donald Trump helped her cover it up. No wonder she voted with him 96% of the time and has rubberstamped his agenda to hurt Maine.
