Twitter filed a lawsuit against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in a California federal court Monday and asked a judge to halt the state's top lawyer from investigating the company.
The social media giant's court filings include a request for a temporary restraining order that would keep Paxton and his office from enforcing a demand that seeks documents revealing the company's internal decision making processes for banning users, among other things.
Trump starts boycott -- wants supporters to donate to him instead of GOP committees: report
Donald Trump on Monday lashed out at RINOs -- "Republicans in Name Only."
"No more money for RINOS," Trump said in announcing a boycott despite speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference on so-called "cancel culture."
Yet another Republican in Congress is in a scandal involving their stock trades.
"Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) did not buy or sell any stocks in his first 13 months as a congressman. That changed in March 2020, when he made half a dozen buys as the largest economic relief package in history was written and debated. Five of those purchases came in the three days between March 25 and 27, as the Senate and House voted on the CARES Act and former President Trump signed it into law. Crenshaw, who supported the bill, did not initially disclose the transactions, in violation of the STOCK Act, a law that requires members of Congress to tell the public when they engage in securities trades," The Daily Beast reported Monday. "Months later he amended his records to reflect the purchases."
