Criminal Investigation Unleashed In Texas Bankruptcy Court

[@0711RC]

Vote the GOP out, vote ONLY blue. KARMA'la !

[@leahbaum730]

Exactly. Vote straight blue ticket in every election until all republicans have been voted out. The Rs that aren’t MAGA who follow the constitution can start a new party.

[@MLq8l2b]

Yes in Texas . Please save us, save women! Vote Harris all in the ballot

[@danfry532]

I'm SHOCKED!! Says no one in America anymore. We know who owns us, and the dumbs keep voting them back into office. Pure madness.

[@MargieTackett]

Vote blue 💙

[@antclerfont8478]

Exactly

[@lauraconrad8604]

How despicable... isn't judge shopping illegal? Another example of judges with way too much power and little or no oversight...much like the Supreme Court.

[@RODavis-me9go]

America needs an Attorney General of the DOJ with a backbone who will prosecute all felonies with equal justice for all. These huge criminal felony conspiracies must be prosecuted as organized crime families and give the maximum penalties under the law.

[@kiwihib]

This law firm needs to be sued out of existence by all the creditors, ripped off.

[@RODavis-me9go]

@kiwihib I am sure it is on the agenda.

[@rakeshmalik5385]

We need to hold the imbeciles general accountable for protecting the criminals and persecuting citizens, or they'll all be the same as Merrick Garbage and Eric Holder.

[@pjnielsen7338]

When Harris is President, I hope she replaces DOJ Garland with a DOJ with the backbone to do their job & criminally charge these powerful people to be severely punished. So tired of the rich getting away with criminal activities.....

[@Harris-k7i]

This is a great example of what corporations with do if they have unchecked power. Elon Musk, oil companies, and many more.

[@bunyipdragon9499]

Some oil companies are already unchecked. One, after exhausting the court system and not getting anymore US government help simply set up and paid for a private court and found themselves *not* liable to pay out the billions that they were found liable for years previously and it worked 🤬 They literally set up their own court system and got away with it.

[@RODavis-me9go]

@Harris-k7i This is just a very small thumbnail of what they have been getting away with for decades. Laws defining what a corporation is and how they function must be brought up to the realality of the present. Corporations were created for specific purposes, and they do not do what they were created to do.

[@antclerfont8478]

Another of many perfect examples.

[@bunyipdragon9499]

@@Harris-k7i my comment keeps disappearing so here goes. The US is a country that when a particular oil company ran out of avenues to stop having to pay the multi billion payout they were found liable for to a Sth American country they simply created their own court -- and their decision was upheld. The oil company literally paid for their own court and got away with it 😮

Only in Texas. When unregulated

[@susanford2388]

Texas is a hot bed of malfeasance A real crud of male behavior. From the top down. Women are suffering or dying because of male politics & their decisions. Yuk.

[@benketengu]

Unfortunately the corruption extends far beyond the Lone Star State. Somehow we have to vote corporate Democrats out in primaries replace them with real progressives who will not take bribes.

Will these greedy people face the same justice as regular citizens?

In the likely event that they don't, it'll only further cut into the respect people have for the justice system, which is already in the gutter.

I'd like to see the FBI investigate the Texas AG, Ken Paxton.

[@carloslitorja3324]

Nothing to rely on AG Garland, he's a disappointment!

[@ScytheNoire]

Garland is a Republican and Federalist Society puppet. Worst mistake of Biden's administration. Only reason Trump is free still is because of Garland.

Our Government here has been criminal since Abbott. That in itself can make a entire state look shitty. When our state has decades long gerrymandering it makes fighting for change near impossible. We have blue dots all over but the uphill battle is disheartening

No , Texas is a tremendous state with friendly and mostly decent people but run by the assholes of America.

[@Pilotin74]

@lesbethtacioni & @antoniodominguez, I’m a 70 year old born and raised Texan and I support your message! Greg Abbott, Dan Patrick, Ted Cruz and KEN PAXTON are culprits against the people. Oh how I long for the days before George W, Bush started the republican downfall of Texass. Ann Richards, Barbara Jordan those of us who remember you miss you so very much! Y’all come to Texass and enjoy our corrupt government that’s only for itself, 5th highest property taxes in the country, our stand alone outdated unregulated electrical grid which is a laughing stock to the rest of the country.🔵

@@lesbethtacioni1733 You are right..along with fellow members of "The good ole' boys club" Ken Paxton and Dan Patrick.

[@lesbethtacioni1733]

@Pilotin74 Our state is a state divided. We have maga loyalists in our government, and conservative Republicans are few or in hiding from conversations to call out these loyalists and corrupt henchmen. Sprinkles Dems here, there with blobs in the largest cities. Lastly, Independents. Uh, I only know 3, but I'm sure they have enough for a flash mob🕺💃. I'm hoping, with my effort to bring unregistered and young voters to the ballot, we will have a fighting chance for the battle of Governor💙🇨🇱

Add eliminating "venue shopping" to all the other stuff Congress -should- be fixing. At the Federal level, all this should be randomized, so there's no good way to predict/manipulate what judge oversees what case.

I used to be a paralegal for a small firm that did creditor's claims in BK court in Houston back in 2018. I don't recall having a case under Judge Jones (my cases weren't that large), but I do remember Judge Isgur's name. Don't really recall anything about him, although the attorney always there was one BK judge that wasn't very favorable to her.

[@susanford2388]

I can't think of any female politicians, judges, media moguls, singers or entertainers who have had to resign due to sexual shenanigans.

Not beyond the realm of possibility. Women are as susceptible to corruption as men.

Honestly, this is why chapter 7 bankruptcy should be taken away from the State of Texas. George W. Bush ordered that Chapter 7 bankruptcy be taken away from the consumer and changed to allow the airline industry to declare bankruptcy if they possess a debt of $40,000 minimum!
