TEXAS AG URGES PROSECUTION OVER TOUTED ‘CHILD-FRIENDLY’ PORNOGRAPHIC DRAG SHOW

ATTENTION!!!!  ADULT ONLY MATERIAL!!!!  NO CHILDREN ALLOWED!!!!

Frankly, governments should be prosecuting each and every one of these drag queens who are engaging children, period.  The urging of the attorney general in Texas to prosecute a lewd display by a perverted man dressing as a woman and performing in front of children is a bit weak, if you ask me.  There should simply be prosecution.  However, we’ll see if the people can put enough feet to the fire to get it done and then get on a roll to deal with other perverts in the state as well.

Zero Hedge has the story.

Following what’s probably the single most horrifying and egregious example of a so-called “child friendly drag show” that we’ve ever seen, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has called for legal prosecution against those involved.

The event took place on Saturday in Plano, Texas – a large suburb of Dallas (of all places) – and involved a drag performer simulating a sex act in front of children at what the venue dubbed an “all ages” show.

“This is grotesque, disturbing behavior.  Under Texas law, local district and county attorneys are charged with taking up the mantle to protect Texas kids by prosecuting these types of totally inappropriate acts,” Paxton was quoted as saying after viewing disturbing footage of the event.

I attended another all ages drag brunch in Plano, TX over the weekend and the footage I have is shocking.

“My p###y good, p###y sweet
P###y good enough to eat…f### me all night”

It gets worse. More footage to come.   We WILL stop this. 🚨 pic.twitter.com/xVghUT0ORb

The performer can be seen going up to a small child, while adults in the background cheered the person on with dollar bills being waved, at which point the performer “flashed underwear in front of children” – as Daily Caller described.

At least one young girl could be seen with a confused and disturbed look on her face.  The dancer twerked to a song that had the lyrics, “My p###y good, p###y sweet. P###y good enough to eat” and “F### me all night”…

AG Paxton also urged greater legal protections for children in response: “What’s more, in 2023, the Texas Legislature should amend the Texas Penal Code to expressly prohibit this kind of grossly sexual conduct and empower my Office to prosecute when district and county attorneys refuse,” he said.

Journalist Sara Gonzales of BlazeTV captured the video content, which has since gone viral and driven outrage:

“This is something that was overtly sexual,” she said.  “And now apparently the left is gaslighting me into thinking that I’m somehow the crazy one for having a problem with this.”

An advertisement for an upcoming drag show said minors were allowed to attend with an accompanying parent or guardian, “Tucker Carlson Tonight” reported.

In further footage of the event, a little girl can be seen encouraged by the crowd to “tip” a drag dancer with dollar bills…

The restaurant and bar that hosted the event has boasted there will be more:  “Following the October 15 event, Ebb & Flow’s Drag Brunch will take place on a monthly basis with dates to be announced soon,” an event page cited by Fox News indicated.

It’s as yet unclear whether the Plano Police or prosecutor will move forward with either an investigation or arrests;  however, AG Paxton’s statements are sure to draw increased scrutiny and pressure on the venue that hosted the drag event.  Ebb & Flow in a statement given to the Dallas Morning News sought to defend what happened as “very tasteful”.

Many observers have pointed out that typically bars offering sexually explicit shows maintain a strict 21 and over age policy, and yet examples abound lately of “LGBTQ-friendly” events actively targeting minors and young children.

Pardon me, but isn’t his job to see that prosecution takes place when the law has been violated? C’mon, Paxton! Do you duty, man!

TX Attorney General Supports Women’s Bill Of Rights And Is Against WOKE Activist And Their Worldview

.jpg photo of Texas Attorney General LogoPaxton Signs Women’s Bill Of Rights To Affirm Basic Biological Truths And Fight Back Against The Left’s Attempts To Redefine The Term “Woman”

September 7, 2022

AUSTIN, TX  –  Attorney General Paxton has signed on as a supporter of the Women’s Bill of Rights, a document developed by the Independent Women’s Voice urging codification of the common sense and reality-based definition of a woman.  The Bill of Rights challenges woke activists’ efforts to ignore basic biology and undermine fundamental truths to promote their worldview.

“The radical left has long had trouble with telling the truth,” said Attorney General Paxton.  “They’ve tried to redefine the word ‘recession,’ revise American history, paint concerned parents as ‘domestic terrorists,’ and now they want to fundamentally change what it means to be a woman.  It’s wrong, and it’s why I’m fighting to stop their dangerous agenda that threatens women and anyone who stands up for what’s right.”

The document highlights key biological differences between men and women.  It also points out that when state and federal laws don’t recognize those differences, it limits women’s “opportunities and threatens [their] privacy and our safety.”

FEDERAL JUDGE SIDES WITH TXAG AND 12 OTHER PLAINTIFF STATES, ISSUES PERMANENT INJUNCTION AGAINST BIDEN ADMIN ILLEGAL MORATORIUM ON OIL, GAS LEASING ON FED PUBLIC LANDS AND OFFSHORE

.jpg photo of Texas Attorney General LogoPaxton Defeats Biden Administration’s Oil and Gas Leasing Moratorium on Public Lands, Marking Major Win for American Energy.

August 29, 2022

AUSTIN, TX  –  A federal judge in Louisiana sided with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and 12 other plaintiff states in a Louisiana-led lawsuit, issuing a permanent injunction against the Biden Administration’s illegal moratorium on oil and gas leasing on federal public lands and offshore waters.

The permanent injunction comes after Attorney General Paxton joined the lawsuit in 2021 and successfully obtained a preliminary injunction last year.

As high energy costs and skyrocketing inflation continue to crush American families, the Biden Administration’s moratorium would only have increased the suffering.

This all-out assault against oil and natural gas production would have killed good-paying jobs and increased consumer energy costs, all while decreasing funds that could be used for the restoration of state coastlines.

“Joe Biden may have declared war on American energy independence, but we’re fighting back and we’re winning in court,” said Attorney General Paxton.  “The executive order was a clear example of unconstitutional federal overreach, and I’m pleased to see the court make the right decision in issuing a permanent injunction to prevent it from taking effect.”

In recognizing the damage done by the Biden Administration’s actions, the court stated: “Millions and possibly billions of dollars are at stake. Local government funding, jobs for Plaintiff States’ workers, and funds for the restoration of . . . Coastline[s] are at stake.

Plaintiff States have a reliance interest in the proceeds derived from offshore and onshore oil and gas lease sales.  Additionally, the public interest is served when the law is followed.  The public will be served if Government Defendants are enjoined from taking actions contrary to law.  In a time of high gas and oil prices, draining of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, and looking to other nations to supply the United States’ oil and gas needs, the public interest would be served by a permanent injunction.”
