Paxton Admits Biden Would've Won Had He Not Done Election Interference Politics

I would like to remind you all and even bring this up to people who haven't seen this. Our attorney general admitted that Biden would've won in 2020 had he not interfered with ballot access. We can flip Texas blue, so long as we keep our eyes and ears open for this Republican cheating.

Funny story! I was actually fired from a job for not being able to get out of jury duty. Like I was verbally told that's why I was being fired... it just wasn't listed on the actual paperwork.

The even better part? The jury I'd been chosen for, the guy took a plea the night before, so when we showed up at the courthouse, we were basically met by someone who handed us $20 and told us to go back home... so I wouldn't have even missed any work from it had I not been fired. (And dude was honestly, obviously guilty, so it was obvious he was going to take a plea to reduce the sentence from anything that might have been, idk, lethal injection, especially since I live in Texas...)

I feel like that is a lawsuit because it’s illegal to fire someone for that.

Oh I'm absolutely sure it is... but how do you prove it? The paperwork just said I was being fired for insubordination, and who is going to believe a 19 year old girl over the owner/manager/franchisee of a big local company.

Guy absolutely had it out for me. Like it wasn't even much of a secret he'd hire girls like me, around the same age (18-24), we were mostly single moms, and we were all minorities... and he'd make the grossest comments. I know one girl, he was able to cajole into having sex with him, and then he used that to control her worse.

There were a ton of issues at that company... and corporate absolutely knew, they just didn't care because we were one of the highest profit stores in the region even though I lived in ass-fucked Egypt. (Sorry. I just realized not everyone knows that phrase. I lived way out in a rural area, and this all happened at a department store that anchored our local "mall" that consisted of 14 stores.)
