Texas AG Ken Paxton hints Facebook crash was part of election-interference scheme
With Facebook and Instagram down nationwide Tuesday morning, Texas Attorney General and high-profile election denier Ken Paxton wasted no time in suggesting to his far-right base that dark forces were at play. "National outage of Facebook and Instagram on this Super Tuesday," Paxton tweeted around 10 a.m. Although Paxton didn't directly connect any dots in his tweet, the mention of Super Tuesday hints the outage might be more than a coincidence. The META-operated social media platforms' twin nosedives occurred on the morning when 15 states and one territory will vote in Republican and Democratic primaries. After all, Paxton — a longtime Trump ally — isn't beyond spinning election-related conspiracy theories and outright fantasies.
