“Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and his wife, Angela, are longtime owners of a $1.5 million house in a gated community outside Dallas. In 2015, they snapped up a second home in Austin. Then another,” the AP reports.

“The problem: Mortgages signed by the Paxtons contained inaccurate statements declaring that each of those three houses was their primary residence, enabling the now-estranged couple to improperly lock in low interest rates.”

1. Well, sure. One was his primary residence, one was hers,

and maybe the third one was for a mistress. It’s good to be the top law enforcement officer in the state of Texas.

3. Quickly becoming enough of a slime ball to be Trump's successor. I do remember being told....

...when I briefly lived in TX many years ago, that it is okay to go to strip joints, have a FWB along with a wife or girlfriend as long as you go to church on Sunday. That forgiveness thing is big in TX. And this is the one and only state where I got tossed out of a bar. For? Wearing sneakers. But darn, the steaks were great.

4. Isn't that mortgage fraud? Also, if Texas has a homesteader exemption to property taxes, that's a crime.
