A leaked deposition from a 2014 fraud inquiry shows Texas politician and US Senate candidate Ken Paxton saying a donor gave him stock gifts in order to "Please God." The document offers rare insight into Paxton's investment arrangements and the legal tactics he used to defend himself during the investigation. Commenters are highlighting the case as an example of wealthy, well-connected figures avoiding accountability, with sharp criticism of both Paxton and the donor relationship.
