Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's press conference to attack his Democratic rival, state Rep. James Talarico, went off the rails on Tuesday as reporters repeatedly asked him about his own political scandals — ultimately driving him to cut the event off early and run away.

The event was a gathering of Texas sheriffs, intended to focus on police issues and attack Talarico for supposedly wanting to defund law enforcement.

"General, I wanted to give you a chance to respond to State Representative Talarico and his campaign," said one reporter. "They've made a lot about the reports that have come out, one in the New York Times, about you acquiring properties worth—"

"Can we keep this to law enforcement?" Paxton said, cutting him off.

"I'm giving you the opportunity to answer—" the reporter said.

"I'd like to — because we're here with the sheriffs, I'd like to keep today to law enforcement," said Paxton. "So that's what I'm going to hand you. Questions about law enforcement."

Paxton's aide then called on another reporter.

"Will you answer a question about why you voted in Collin County?" asked the reporter. "Clear that up?"

Paxton shook his head with agitation, as his aide said, "So we're just going to do questions on law enforcement today, because we're joined with 22 amazing law enforcement officers."

Shortly after this, as another reporter tried to ask a question, the aide started waving her hand, saying, "We're going to get out of here. We're going to get out of here," as Paxton walked off the stage, leaving the sheriffs to stand around.

President Donald Trump has created an "intimidating environment" for Muslim and Black Americans to vote, former Obama official Nayyera Haq argued on CNN

The post Ex-Obama Official Accuses Trump of Creating ‘Intimidating Environment’ for Muslim and Black Americans to Vote first appeared on Mediaite.

Trump biographer Michael Wolff argued First Lady Melania Trump has become an unnervingly unpredictable force within the White House that administration insiders cannot manage or predict.

In his Substack newsletter HOWL, Wolff writes, "Of all the self-dealing among Trump family members, Melania's moves—not just about money, but about calling attention to herself—are seen as most disturbing to the White House, and most in danger of putting her on a collision course with the president."

According to the Daily Beast, Wolff claimed the couple barely speaks and maintains little pretense that Melania resides at the White House full-time, spending most time in New York.

He characterized Melania as "a wild card that he can't seem to control or even game."

“Almost nobody near Trump—including Trump himself—knows Melania’s moves until she makes them,” Wolff writes.

Financial disclosures show Melania earned $10.71 million from her documentary despite it earning only $16.7 million worldwide, plus roughly $521,000 from her memoir.

White House spokesman Davis Ingle dismissed Wolff, cursing him off.
