This week, as Texas campaign finance reports were published, we learned that the Defend Texas Liberty PAC gave Lt. Governor Dan Patrick $1 million and a $2 million loan. Billionaire Tim Dunn gave the Defend Texas Liberty PAC $2.3 million this cycle, and billionaire Ferris Wilks gave them $1.5 million. Dunn is also Ken Paxton’s biggest donor this cycle.
Earlier this week, Scorecard Confessions published a report exposing the Defend Texas Liberty PAC and how they paid for Russian-led influencers to sway public opinion regarding Ken Paxton’s impeachment on social media. These influencers touted Ken Paxton’s “innocence” and attacked the Republicans who voted in favor of impeachment.
Why does it matter that the same billionaire PAC pushing Paxton’s innocence just gave $3 million to Dan Patrick?
Because Dan Patrick presides over the impeachment trial, essentially, he’s the judge.
Political analysts on both sides of the aisle are counting on Dan Patrick’s corruption and ability to be bought off. The $3 million is payment for him tipping the trial in Ken Paxton’s favor.
Everything is bigger in Texas, even the corruption. But, it makes you wonder why… Why are these West Texas billionaires spending so much money to get Ken Paxton off the hook?
