Texas' top GOP officials won't comment on Trump's pardon of Jan. 6 rioters who assaulted police
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and Attorney General Ken Paxton offered no comment Tuesday on President Donald Trump's decision to pardon nearly all Jan. 6 rioters, including those charged with assaulting police. None of the three elected Republican officials and outspoken Trump allies responded to an inquiry the Current emailed Monday night about whether they support Trump's move. The silence comes after all three have repeatedly invoked calls for law and order and played up their unwavering support for law-enforcement personnel.
