It’s even worse than you think. Here’s what the article says about the two guys partying with Paxton and his mistress:
Sameer Suhail and Anosh Ahmed were federally indicted in 2024 on charges of embezzling $15 million from the Illinois hospital where Ahmed was chief financial officer.
Ahmed was later charged with another even grander scheme in which he allegedly sold $195 million worth of faulty Covid-19 tests to the government.
No, our healthcare is not strangled of funding and shitty enough, they needed to hop on and make it even worse. And selling $195 million worth of known bad covid tests to the govt to be distributed to citizens during a worldwide pandemic? That’s just comic-book level evil.
These are Paxton’s friends, the company he chooses to keep when his time is free to spend as he likes. And there’s no way he didn’t know who they were: from the brief WSJ video it looks like they’re standing on a private balcony directly across from the Birj, someone’s home. But even if it wasn’t, it’s hard to imagine anyone got past security that wasn’t directly invited.
TNR pulled their article from the much more thorough Wall Street Journal report; if you click on the WSJ link you’ll get paywalled but the 30 second video is still watchable:
How can anyone in Texas possibly vote for this absolutely terrible and corrupt human being?
have you not seen who the President of the US is ? perhaps not ? after all politics is so traumatic many folks can’t be ass’d to vote, thus allowing the most deplorable humans to “represent” them.
This is not a Paxton or Trump problem, this is a US voter problem.

Zero chance they are friends, just fellow grifters at a grift convention.
had to laugh at the first comment in the WSJ

The people he’s willing to travel halfway around the world juat to hang out with.
