China buying land in Texas
 
Man, Ken Paxton is really having a tough time. He's thumping about China corporations buying some acreage.
 
So why would he take $40,000+ from employees and firms that facilitate transactions for the Chinese corporations?
 
Oh right, because he doesn't actually care. Just hot air.

CarolS : They just pushed through a law that Abbott can designate anyone as ineligible to buy. Nationality, corporation, or lone person. All up to him.

ParksideRes : We're these donations from individuals or corporations? What did the FEC tell you?

The're traced to employees directly who are land brokers who have facilitated deals for Chinese people and corporations.
 
The literal actual brokers who worked on the actual sale deals.
 
Also corporate donations to PACs that have given money to Paxton.

ParksideRes : Well then! You have just convinced me to vote for a Socialist Democrat who believes in trans, God is not a father and not a mother and he has changed what he NOW believes to what he DID believe once he won the primary. I trust him! He is a male Spanberger. She is Great! Let's turn TX into another CA. He has some really good ideas like let's pour some more money into green energy. It's the future ya know. Some corporations are going to make so much money before they go broke.

#msg2205742As long as you treat them as human beings with a mental disorder.
 
Atascocita888 : It's a step in the right direction from the last couple of years.

For those who are embroiled in the culture wars, I've opined before I've haven't seen said war put food on the table, clothes on the back, shoes on the feet, money in the pocket, nor pay for various insurances. That is factually correct, no?

rocket1 : I do not believe this subject is culture wars. At least I hope that is not what our culture is about now. This subject is more about the adults in the room who make the rules don't know as much as a 5 year old when it comes to who is a woman.

GOP shows us every day that they have nothing to offer.
Because every ad I've seen is just more BS attacks re:men in women's restroom / gender crap that means nothing to regular Americans.
They got nothing! NOTHIN'
And must think Texas voters are stupid enough to fall for this.

so - on one hand you have a guy who has been so bold as to speak to the Christian dilemma of where god came from, (who created him), does he have sex organs, (why does he need them), but he would have to be male or female.
All speculation to satisfy or cast doubt on the mythical creator - - but pretty much irrelevant to passing laws, legislating, or protecting our country.
 
On the other hand you have a guy who has been investigated, charged, turned in for felonies by his own staff, accepted bribes, adulterer, the list goes on...
 
but he does suck trump *** pretty well
 
wow- - tough decision

#msg2205858unless you find them sexually attractive, why do you care what is in their pants?   fear of the unknown, intimidation or just ignorance help fuel the prejudices.  
 
redneckroy : That is just childish but not sure if you get that. Do you think the same of Sophie Cunningham when she speaks her mind about transgender athletes? Or all the other women who are against such things? The things allowed on here but yet other things get pulled is amazing sometimes.
