Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, with a felony indictment and a persecution complex, is gonna be on the teevee.

The judge presiding over Ken Paxton’s securities fraud case has said he will allow cameras in the courtroom during the trial, over the wishes of the attorney general and his lawyers.

Paxton argues that he’s the victim because these special prosecutors are out to get him.  You’d think he’d want the public to see how mean everybody is being to him, and how securities fraud is just one of those things that happen accidentally.  You know, you go out to a party, someone coughs on you, and the next thing you know you come down with a bad case of felony securities fraud.

As soon as they set a trial date I’m clearing my calendar.
