A $250,000 donation to a pro-Ken Paxton super PAC came from a businessman whose dad got pardoned by Trump — and who used a fake name and rented mailbox on the donation record.

Who was behind a $250K mystery donation to super PAC backing Ken Paxton?

All Republicans have to offer voters in the midterms is failure, lies, corruption, cover ups, fear mongering, name calling, enrichment of oligarchs, christian nationalism, racism, data centers everywhere, flock cameras, higher prices, new wars and fake bribes. Hell of a platform.

Looks like Trump’s new “steel plant” in IA, announced to shore up support in midterms from people his policies have crushed, where he said construction has already begun, is nowhere close to happening and contingent on Iowans giving tax breaks & incentives to a company in India.

Yes LA-01, why vote for lyin’ Scalise, when you can vote for someone who is actually honorable: a teacher, union member, someone who actually shows up for the people time & time again? Her name is Lauren Jewett and she will work for you & won’t take corporate money. @doitjewett.bsky.social
Information on Lauren Jewett, candidate for Congressional District LA-01: “She's spent her career showing up. Now she's ready to fight for Louisiana.
For 17 years, Lauren Jewett has worked alongside Louisiana students, families, and educators. She knows what happens when working people are treated like an afterthought-schools scrape by, healthcare disappears, insurance bills climb, and families are told to accept less.
Lauren isn't running to join the Washington political class. She's running because the people who teach our children, care for our neighbors, build our communities, and keep Louisiana moving deserve someone who will fight as hard as they do.”
