Here is a link to the interview, just now posted.
AG Paxton had serious trouble explaining why the federal government doesn't have the authority to mandate Covid vaccinations for workers (no right to tell business's how to do business) and state governments have the right to tell business's how to do business (Abbott's no vaccine mandate policy for business's). Wallace asked him FOUR times how he can rectify the discrepancy and he couldn't, of course.
At this point Paxton's confidence was visibly starting to ebb. Then when asked about the abortion law (supports and defends it as written without exceptions for rape and incest) he couldn't get past it in an intelligent manner and merely stated his role is to defend it as written, kudos to legislature for trying to save lives, etc.
Finally when asked about indictments and FBI investigations he is facing he didn't deny any possible malfeasance but instead said the accusations were political in nature, had been instituted around previous elections, he won election then, and he will will election now.
Actually, Ken, I think you are going to be very, very lucky to make it out of the Republican primaries next year.
