Hey, finally some positive news out of Texas.

"I believe marriage is a sacred covenant and I have earnestly pursued reconciliation," she wrote. "But in light of recent discoveries, I do not believe that it honors God or is loving to myself, my children, or Ken to remain in the marriage. I move forward with complete confidence that God is always working everything together for the good of those who love Him and who are called according to His purpose."

Of course she's a braindead christian who has to frame everything through her faith.

Rather than call her brain dead, reframe it as she’s trying to be a Christian who actually follows the ten commandments, not simply demands them in school as a performative measure.

That’s as optimistic as I’m going to be.

Lol you don't just find out who ken Paxton is right now and be like "oh yeah maybe not"

She married him because he is him.

I wonder if she found him in a homosexual relationship

[–] devolution@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago

You mean hatefulsexual.

[–] Zier@fedia.io 4 points 4 months ago

I'm guessing he kept raping their farm animals.

possible, or hes CSA/csam and the texas legislature is keeping a tight lip on info.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

He probably has a bunch of blackmail on the legislator.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 4 months ago

No. People who talk like this hate gay and trans people. Fuck 'em.

My completely unfounded hunch is Cornyn’s people found some dirt, or they just promised her something to weaponize the marriage. She’s almost as awful as her husband is, and Cornyn too — especially during primary season — but keeping Ken Paxton out of the US senate is a legitimately good thing.
