Ken Paxton took roughly 350 taxpayer-funded trips outside Texas as AG (25 foreign), including fleeing to Utah while millions froze in the 2021 winter storm. Security tab: $3.1 million. Now he’s jet-setting in Iceland mid-Senate race. Fiscal conservative or just self-serving?

Yep and if you know anything about Ramaswamy, his use of this should not surprise you. He's a friend of JD Vance, and is a birthright citizen who is against birthright citizenship, anti-abortion, anti-LGBTQ+, practices Hinduism but aligns with evangelicals. A walking conundrum of hate.
