Now that Joe Biden has left office, it's a good time to reflect. Or take score, perhaps. Over the past four years Texas Attorney Gen. Ken Paxton sued the Biden-Harris administration 106 times. And that includes a final suit mere hours before Donald Trump was sworn in as the current president.
Attorney General Ken Paxton has sued the Biden Administration during its final hours to prevent President Joe Biden’s restriction of offshore drilling, saying it is in violation of federal law.
Paxton’s win was unsurprising after the state’s top court sided with his deputy in a similar lawsuit last month.
Texas AG Paxton sues Biden administration over offshore drilling ban as Biden's term ends, citing overreach of executive power and threat to energy security.
The state bar had sought to sanction Paxton, which could have carried a punishment ranging from a private reprimand to disbarment.
He then aggressively pursued cases against President Joe Biden’s administration after Trump lost reelection ... and watched as many other friends, including Ken Paxton, came along with me,” he wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.
