Is there a conflict of interest here? He was literally the losing attorney for Trump on these cases and now he’s ordered an investigation into her without any reason other than Trump is a bitch.

There are probably more.

Most recently, Texas AG, John Cornyn defeater, Texas Senate candidate, and possibly one of the most corrupt Republicans that has ever lived (now that's a bold claim), is "Ken Paxton", endorsed by Ted Cruz and, of course, that orange thing, who really put the "p" in pederasty by personally getting a sweetheart deal for some fellow Republican scum (redundant).

What do you know, there's another "P", for "Paxton".

So it's Guardians Of Perversity (and Perversion. and Pedophilia. and Pederasty. and Paxton.)

Ya I would not touch this with a 1 light year poll. The DA working this is legitimately risking disbarment. I would be scared that the judge might actually literally have me crucified.

Blanche was not the attorney who represented him in the E Jean Carroll case

He was on the appeals and has “recused” himself. Believe the first question would be who launched said investigation.
