A Texas assistant attorney general has been fired after several of his tweets were called out for bigotry and a general loose grasp on reality.
Nick Moutos was part of Texas’ criminal prosecutions division, but a Media Matters report released Thursday outlined why that’s the last place he should be working.
Not only does Moutos spout homophobic, racist, transphobic, misogynistic and Islamaphobic viewpoints on his feed, he also posts about QAnon conspiracy theories like Pizzagate. He’s the whole package!
Here’s one tweet the lawyer fired off this summer in response to Twitter announcing it was cracking down on abuse on its platform:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
#Q must be getting close to #OutingYou as a #Pedophile or #ChildTrafficker or perhaps involved with #PizzaGate #EpsteinFlightLogs #LolitaExpress #EpsteinIsland? #TruthBringsLight #EvilHidesInCensoredDarkness https://t.co/hdp64kK7HS

“Q must be getting close to outing you as a pedophile or child trafficker or perhaps involved with Pizzagate?” he wrote.
And that’s hardly the only red flag.
He’s also referred to house representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar as “Whores of Babylon” and posted violent rhetoric aimed at them. He went on to call Omar an “incestuous jihadi terrorist” who should be sent to Guantanamo.

Then there are his anti-LGBTQ tweets, calling trans people “abhorrent” and saying supporting queer rights is “normalizing perversion”.
The court opinion is sound, but the abomination of women being men and men being women is abhorrent. #Jesus https://t.co/gcN7PrlaLM

“Trans People” are an abomination and have a mental disorder. https://t.co/r4He0yMYcn #Jesus @dbongino @realDonaldTrump @PastorJohnHagee @PastorMattHagee https://t.co/IhknxyyGeU

@LoriLightfoot @chicagosmayor Do any of these #LivesMatter? #BLMTerroristMarxists don’t care about “lives,” they care only about destroying the #AmericanFamily and spreading #Marxist #LGBTQ ideals & #NormalizingPerversion https://t.co/Zpcr7aCeBM

Miraculously, Moutos can’t figure out why he was fired. After losing his job, he took to Twitter to play the victim, of course:
“Speaking out against the China Virus Plandemic [sic] & Democrats using it to steal Election 2020 makes people angry.
“Stories slamming me and others… were enough to cost me my job.”
In a later tweet, he pondered: “How is it ‘bigoted’ to say that LGBTQ is an abomination?”
Well it sounds like he’ll have plenty of time on his hands to work that one out.
Kangol2
He sounds utterly batsh!t crazy, meaning he’s perfect from Don the Con’s GOP!
G-Man
I totally agree with you and he has no business doing anything in law enforcement.
GayEGO
Absolutely! And Jennifer Grisham, a Fox News security journalist just verified that Trump did call the military losers and suckers. Trump is fuming and wants Fox News to fire her!
Josh in OR
When Adolf Twitler declares himself President for Life in November (however the actual vote goes, does ANYONE really think he’s going to just accept it if he loses…?), he’ll probably reach out to this guy to lead New Trumpistan’s four star, gold plated army.
Mister P
What’s scary is how many others agree with his claptrap.
Virpilosus
WORD!!!
Paul Nadolski
So I guess he doesn’t want to be reminded that Trump got help from Mother Russia to steal the 2016 election?

I live in Texas. I would say, “Not again, Texas!”. I won’t, because these kind of people from all persuasions are all over the country. The South does have liberals like me. We’re out here on our own, or we are few and far between as in the rural area of Texas where I live. They think we’re crazy. Whatever, Sugar. Bless your little pea pickin’ hearts!
CurtisIsTheOne
Sadly, thanks to President Tangerine Shitgibbon, Amerika has peeled back the curtains hiding our racism, bigotry and just bat-shit crazy Evangelical “God is Great” bullshit. There are crazies ALL over Amerika, but the South is home to more crazies than any other part of the country. It’s because when you mix racism, white supremacy, and bigotry with religion, you’ve got a sure fire rise in the “CQ” or as we say the “Crazy Quotient”. Praise the Lord. Pass the Lube. Lamb of God and all that other stuff. /|\

Next, let me guess, he’ll claim to have been hacked.

In order to spend your career in the military you have to/need to believe all of the conservative viewpoints of your country in order to liberate/decimate other countries
ShiningSex
IF YOU SUPPORT TRUMP, THIS IS THE CRAP YOU ALSO SUPPORT. STOP SAYING YOU SUPPORT TRUMP BECAUSE OF THE ECONOMY (WHICH BTW IS IN THE SHITTER).
Fname Optional Lname
and when it was good it was good because of Obama, follow the economy the 8 years before the Orange Turd started stinking up the office
JPB
trump’s ideology has allowed the haters to crawl out from under their rocks. They were always there, just afraid of the sunlight.
BaltoSteve
I am utterly surprised that he hasn’t started to drape himself in the flag and claim they are violating his 1st Amendment rights. I am sure the Drumpster fire will soon take up his cause…
toddlicious
The queen, she doth protest too much…
Just another GOP closet case.
marcbruer777
After analyzing his nasty tweets, I have concluded that he must be suffering from serious SPS.
barryaksarben
Almost funny how out of his fkn mind he is, but not really. ALl these Qanon idiots seem to forget that TRUMP is the only person ever named in a criminal complaint WITH JEFFREY EPSTEIN in the rape of a 13 yr old girl. Trump’s folded model agency was the REAL pizzagate as it has underage girls that trump used sexually. Where is the all knowing Q on this? All the pedophiles are republicans. The children that trump has thrown in cages are being molested by the border agents put there to protect them. This man is insane and I will bet he has the worst sex life of anyone who is in such madness. Probably a closeted pedophile attracted to little boys and that is why he has gone mad

Mother of Gawd. This is bat guano crazy even for bat guano crazy standards.
ElPillo
Aren’t trump tweets and comments more troublesome?
fur_hunter
This piece of SHIT should NEVER have been in ANY arm of law enforcement.
cuteguy
I wonder if any defendants he prosecuted now have valid grounds for appeal?
nm4047
so I guess he’s now running as a republican candidate in the next election and guess what?
mozzer
WHAT AN ASSHOLE!
zealot
I’ve said it before, but most straight white males are so utterly TERRIFIED of losing power (or the illusion that they’re in control and running the world) that it’s driving them insane to think it’s slipping away. Hence the hatred of women, people of color and worst of all…the gays who they truly believe all want a piece of their hairpiece-wearin’ flabby asses. To use an over-used saying, denial ain’t just a river in Egypt.
startenout
Well shoot. If only his career had melted down a little sooner, they would have had him speak at the RNC alongside all the other bigoted nut jobs.

@ Nick Moutos: Girrrrlllll. Lay off the meth. Those crazy meth eyes have betrayed you. You’re another- in a long line , of genetically deformed cretins – who should NEVER have any power of any kind. You NEED to locked in a PADDED room in a mental institution and put on Thorazine injections STAT. Cause you’re BATSHIT CRAZY. Just an embarrassment to your people -which in Adolph Twitterler land has no standards whatsoever !!! Go out in the woods and stay there. FAR away from us civilized people !!!
Invader7
And NO we do NOT want you sexually. NEVER did. NEVER will. We’re horny but NOT desperate.
Cambriaguy
Nock Moutos is really crazy insane needed to be fired . It is not much different than what President Trump has been saying lately to anyone who dares to criticize his poor job performance, name calling and made up stories and outright lies.
Kevan1
Another Trump Q-Anon nut case.
