Now that Joe Biden has left office, it's a good time to reflect. Or take score, perhaps. Over the past four years Texas Attorney Gen. Ken Paxton sued the Biden-Harris administration 106 times. And that includes a final suit mere hours before Donald Trump was sworn in as the current president.
Attorney General Ken Paxton has sued the Biden Administration during its final hours to prevent President Joe Biden’s restriction of offshore drilling, saying it is in violation of federal law.
Paxton’s win was unsurprising after the state’s top court sided with his deputy in a similar lawsuit last month.
The State Bar of Texas is dropping efforts to discipline Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton over allegations that his failed efforts to overturn the 2020 election amounted to professional misconduct.
An attorney discipline board has dropped its misconduct case against Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, after the state Supreme Court blocked related claims against one of his top deputies over their work on a failed lawsuit that challenged Democrat Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 U.
Despite Trump’s threat, the House voted 121-23 in May 2023 to impeach Paxton. The Senate then held a trial that September to determine Paxton’s fate. “Who would replace Paxton, one of the TOUGHEST & BEST Attorney Generals in the Country?” Trump posted before the Senate acquitted Paxton.
President Donald Trump in an executive order on Monday revoked a ban imposed by former Democratic President Joe Biden on new offshore oil and gas development along most of the country's coastlines. Trump is certain to face legal challenges over his authority to do so.
A federal judge has rejected a bid by 20 Republican state attorneys general to block enforcement of a new rule adopted by the outgoing Biden administration establishing minimum staffing requirements for nursing homes.
Both lawsuits stem from the attorney general's attempt to call into question the results of the 2020 presidential election.
Catholic Bishop Mark Seitz in West Texas says the Trump administration's mass-deportation plan "strikes fear into the heart of our community."
