Attorney General Ken Paxton Case Analysis
The article is about how Attorney General Ken Paxton was indicted and how his future looks bleak. The article talks about how Governor Rick Perry was indicted last year and how he came out looking like a hero. The same thing Attorney General Ken Paxton tried to do but it didn't work out so well for him. Rick Perry was Indicted because he vetoed funding for the Public Integrity Unit ,yet people had a different reaction for Rick Perry then for Ken Paxton. Rick Perry was cheered and all Ken Paxton can hear is silence from his supporters. Attorney General Ken Paxton was indicted for three different counts of security frauds last week. If he wanted people to support him, he should've given the supporters something to work with like a defense speech …show more content…
That was a bad move from him. In return, everyone that was on his side like Governor Greg Abbott's office, Micheal Openshaw, and even Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick was quiet. Silence can say a lot of words and as of right now everyone is silent. No one has any comments on this topic because Ken Paxton didn't leave anything left to defend. If he could've said something to proven that he was not guilty, then people could've stood up for him. Unfortunately, He admitted defeat before the decision was even made. The Republican Party Of Texas also didn't have any strong words to defend him. All they said was that Ken Paxton should get a chance to defend himself in the court of law just like everyone else. It can also be that Ken Paxton had already admitted being guilty of violating securities law. Not only just that, the fact that his allegations were so major that it impacted so many people. The serious charge which drowned him was the charges against him relating to a fake company named Servergy. All the paperwork were fake and the company sold 26 million in stock. Paxton had a big hand in that company because he would lure the investors into buying

    Daniels Kelly’s research demonstrates that people can be disgusted by anything that is presented to them whether it is abstract or concrete. It can be an object or it can be something they find physically repellent. In Daniel Kelly’s book, we see how the role of disgust takes place in our lives, both moral and social lives. Research that Kelly presents will guide us to see how disgust influences morality. To begin with, Kelly proposes if disgust should or should not be involved in morality by his two views of disgust advocacy and disgust skepticism. Philosopher Kelly argues for disgust skepticism but against disgust advocates. That will follow to an explanation of Kelly’s own account of the nature of disgust as the E&C view. Further on, I will analyze how Kelly uses his E&C view to discredit disgust advocates. To conclude, I will explain how an advocate might react towards Kelly’s skepticism.…
