re: If Ken Paxton isn't a felon, then Bill Cassidy just made a huge mistake.

“Cassidy absolutely defended his vote multiple times”

He did,I remember seeing him in videos a time or two.
IMO,his defense of his vote was wrong.He was elected to represent his constituents,not his personal feelings on the matter.Trump won Louisiana with 60% of the vote in the presidential election.

Besides that when Trump spoke he urged his audience to go to the Capital and “peacefully and patriotically protest.”That is the right of all Americans.

Nancy Pelosi denied the deployment of the National Guard at the Capital,knowing there might be a few hotheads that might cross the line.To ensure that a few hotheads would cross the line the FBI had assets in the crowd posing as protestors that were there as agitators.

I also videos of Capital police escorting protestors into the Capital,talking and laughing with protestors as they walked them in.

There were protestors that never entered the Capital,were in the vicinity and were tracked by cellphone signals,were arrested and thrown in jail for extended times.That was absolutely wrong.

Cassidy is a POS RINO.He is a perfect example of a doctor with a “god complex”that thinks he is smarter than anybody else.
I saw it many times in my medical career,obnoxious frickers that think they are experts on everything.
