So, you know how Attorney General Ken Paxton isn't shy about going after groups he doesn't like? Well, he's just turned his legal sights on a Houston anti-fascist organization. We're talking about the Screwston Anti-Fascist Committee, and the AG's office isn't holding back, accusing them of what they call 'doxing' and even suggesting links to terrorism. What's happening here is the AG has formally asked Screwston for a bunch of records. He wants to dig into whether they've broken state laws. The big claim? That this group has been posting private details online – things like full names, birth dates, home addresses, and even car info – about people they label as neo-Nazis or far-right activists. It's a classic free speech vs. privacy conflict, and the state is stepping in. Paxton himself issued a pretty strong statement. He said "radical leftists" are attacking the country and trying to "undermine the rule of law." He specifically pointed to Screwston, saying they've "illegally doxed Texans" and "encouraged violent terrorism." Strong words. He promised the group would "face the full force of law," leaving "no stone unturned." Now, if you check out Screwston's blog, you'll see they formed back in 2016. Their goal? To "build resistance to fascism and the far-right in Houston." They’ve got a section on their site where they profile "local fascists," linking to other sites that hold that personal information. We're talking about groups like Patriot Front, which experts say is a white nationalist and fascist organization. You can also find merchandise on their site with messages like "Make Racists Afraid." So, their intentions are clear. The AG's office also tossed out a claim that members connected to Screwston might have been involved in a July 4 protest at the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado. That event led to a shooting where a police officer got hurt. The AG's office hasn't shown the evidence for that claim yet, but it's a serious accusation. Interestingly, Screwston has actually helped raise money for the legal fees of 19 people arrested after that Prairieland shooting. These folks are going to trial soon, facing a mix of federal and state charges, including attempted murder and providing material support to terrorists. Seven have already pleaded guilty. This whole situation has brought up a lot of questions about how you prosecute people tied to a decentralized movement like "antifa," especially since former President Trump called it a domestic terror threat. From a legal standpoint, this whole situation opens up a lot of cans of worms. You have to ask: Where does constitutionally protected speech end, and illegal 'doxing' begin? When does sharing public information become a crime, especially if it's considered for "malicious intent"? And what does "material support for terrorism" mean when you're talking about a group without a formal structure or membership? Then there's the power of the Attorney General. Can he demand records from any private organization he suspects of wrongdoing? Absolutely. But the language used, and the accusation of terrorism, raises the stakes significantly. It's a public policy move that could make other advocacy groups think twice. This legal fight in Houston isn't just about one group; it's about setting precedents for free speech, privacy, and how the state can respond to online activism. This isn't over. The legal battles are just starting, and what happens next could shape how these types of clashes play out across Texas.
