Angela "The Bonnie To His Clyde" Paxton Announces Reelection

Angela Paxton: The poor unsuspecting wife? Or the partner in crime?

https://www.lonestarleft.com/p/angela-the-bonnie-to-his-clyde-paxton



In September 2022, a process server showed up at the Paxton’s family abode to serve Ken Paxton a federal affidavit. Instead of facing the music, Ken climbed out of a bathroom window just as his wife, Angela, pulled the F250 around and swung the door open for him to jump in. Ken shuffled through the lawn, his cowboy boots in hand, as the process server bolted after him, waving papers over his head. He jumped into the truck as it peeled away, leaving the man chasing them in the dust.

During their drive to safety, Angela, the getaway driver, turned to her husband and said, “Honey, I think I’ll run for reelection.”

His likely reply was, “Of course, dear. Being elected keeps you out of jail.”

On the weekend before Ken Paxton’s impeachment trial begins, Angela decided it was the perfect time to announce her reelection. Actually, her “official” announcement will occur on the eve of her husband’s impeachment trial.

with her paycheck as senator. I wonder how they are getting by on $600 a month and whatever she gets per diem while the Lege is in session? That would be a change in lifestyle.
