FBI issues subpoena for Texas AG Ken Paxton's records after whistleblower allegations
2020-12-13
[The Hill] The FBI has reportedly issued at least one federal subpoena for records from the office of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) amid an investigation over allegations of bribery and abuse of office.

Local outlet KVUE reported on Thursday that the subpoena was issued the day prior, however it is not immediately clear what information was requested by the FBI.

Agency spokeswoman Michelle Lee declined to comment to the outlet. The Hill has reached out Paxton’s office.

The subpoena comes amid an ongoing investigation after members of Paxton's staff raised red flags about actions Paxton allegedly took to benefit Nate Paul, an Austin investor and wealthy donor.

#8  "Caedite eos. Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius." is a phrase reportedly spoken by the commander of the Albigensian Crusade, prior to the massacre at Béziers on 22 July 1209. A direct translation of the Latin phrase is "Kill them. For the Lord knows those that are His own."
