ICYMI- Attorney General Ken Paxton released the following statement today.
“Today is a dark and shameful day in American history. The corrupt Biden administration, an unhinged Judge and the deceitful Manhattan District Attorney and the New York Attorney General have conspired in a grotesque abuse of power, revealing their true agenda: to destroy our democracy and the Republic for which it stands. These cowardly, spineless political hacks have turned our justice system into a weapon, something you would expect in a third-world dictatorship, not the land of the free.
From the beginning of this sham trial, I stood by President Trump, and my support for him is stronger than ever. As Attorney General of Texas, I will unleash every tool at my disposal to fight this blatant corruption and political persecution spewing from New York and the Biden administration.
This verdict is an outright assault not only on President Trump but on every American who believes in justice and the rule of law. This is a battle of good versus evil and let me be clear: the political elite may think they’ve won this battle, but President Trump and the unstoppable MAGA movement will win the war.
America will never be the same after today, but we will fight back harder than ever for the values and freedoms that define our nation. The American people know President Trump is innocent, and together, we will stand by him and prevail,” said Paxton.
