Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's consultant Michelle Smith spends a lot of time on social media calling people liars. Recently, Michelle called me a liar after I quoted her saying, "I think the Beckmeyer's are evil."
Paxton's consultant was talking about John and Teresa Beckmeyer, and I agree the Beckmeyer's are evil. Michelle Smith said she thinks the Beckmeyer's were behind some of the attacks on former Texas State Rep. and former Pale Horse Strategies President Jonathan Stickland, who hosted "white supremacist" Nick Fuentes at his office.
John Beckmeyer is the former Republican Party of Texas Executive Director who was personally involved in the second false report made against me by his friend, currently-elected Republican Party of Texas SREC Committeewoman Tisha Howell Crow.
Beckmeyer and the City of Odessa tried to cover up the crime. They lied to Ken Paxton's office about it and tried to bury the names of the people involved, which included John Beckmeyer himself.
Teresa Beckmeyer is the political director for the very powerful Saulsbury family of Odessa who asked "ex-CIA" agent Casey Gray to run for Texas State Rep. in the 2022 cycle.
"Ex-CIA" Casey Gray was at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, and posted a video claiming Capitol Police did NOT let protesters into the building and that it was "literally an invasion".
Dick Saulsbury funded Casey Gray's 2022 campaign for State Rep.
Ken Paxton's consultant Michelle Smith said she doesn't want to get involved in my "battles". That's odd, because I was asking for the Attorney General of my home state to investigate and prosecute people who made false reports to the police targeting me and weaponized government against me.
Tisha Crow, Ector County Hospital District Board President Wallace Dunn, former Odessa City Councilwoman Denise Swanner, former Odessa Mayor Javier Joven, John and Teresa Beckmeyer, and others did to me what Adam Schiff, James Comey, John Brennan, and others did to President Trump.
They engaged in a years-long smear campaign to try to ruin my name, bankrupt me, and get me locked up on false charges after I exposed their corruption.
Wallace Dunn somehow dragged President Trump's Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon into their crimes and cover-up. Dunn hired Harmeet Dhillon in 2024 to sue me for defamation after I reported his violation of a Medical Center Hospital patient's HIPAA rights to the Office of Civil Rights, which AAG Dhillon now oversees.
I have filed official complaints against these people with the Texas Attorney General, Criminal Investigations Division, and the FBI.
I wonder now if I can even count on my home state's Attorney General Ken Paxton to investigate and prosecute the people who targeted me, especially since Dick, Amelia, and Bubba Saulsbury supported these Odessa criminals and are donors to Paxton's campaign for Senate against John Cornyn.
Stay tuned.

I need your help. Attorney's fees and expenses are hard to come up with when I'm up against a mountain of corruption. The local judge appears to be protecting these corrupt politicians and has dismissed my lawsuits against them. Appeals are expensive, and that's what corrupt people with money count on: You and me not being able to fight back. If you can pitch in, please donate here. Thank you!
