The Texas attorney general is cracking down on Democrats in a supposed crusade to root out “voter fraud.”

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s crusade against supposed voter fraud appears to be targeting the state’s Democrats.

Last week, Paxton’s office announced raids and undercover actions against organizations in Texas it accuses of illegally registering noncitizens to vote. In practice, though, the raids have taken place against members of the League of United Latin American Citizens, the oldest Latino civil rights organization in the U.S., as well as several prominent Democrats in south Texas.

According to LULAC officials, the group’s members had their cell phones and laptops confiscated by law enforcement officials carrying out search warrants.

    I now know why the GOP didn’t follow through when they told Obama “you’d never pick a good moderate like Garland for scotus.” He did pick him and they continued with their bullshit “it’s an election year wait for the election.”

    They knew he’s too much of a coward to do anything whatsoever so he’d be as useless to them as he would be to anyone.
