By Andrea Zelinski of the Houston Chronicle

(Dec. 18) Ken Paxton has spent more than two years fighting alleged regulatory overreach by the Obama administration and against allegations that he violated state and federal securities laws. The Texas AG is famous for building walls blocking out the news media. He has been known to duck out back doors at events, walk away from reporters asking about his court case and once even leaked a story accusing a reporter of stalking him.

Now, he’s talking. Why? The Houston Chronicle has the story. (Subscription may be required.)
