Taral V Patel, political candidate for Fort Bend Precinct 3 Commissioner, was arrested on online impersonation charges, according to officials.
The Fort Bend District Attorney's Office started the probe in October, shortly after a lengthy Facebook post Patel made in September in which he painted himself and his family as victims of a vicious race-based smear campaign perpetrated by his opponent's supporters.
Included with the post was a collage of about a dozen racist messages he claimed he received over the course of his candidacy, calling him vile names such as "monkey" and "subhuman" and attacking his Hindu faith.

Most recently, Taral was appointed by President Joseph R. Biden to serve in the Office of White House Liaison to work on matters related to housing, urban development, and disaster recovery and resilience. During his time with the President, Taral was also a key member of the White House Asian American Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (WHAANHPI) Committee.

I find the charge (arrested on online impersonation charges) the most interesting facet.

Shit with that charge they could shut down ar15.com.

If he's a naturalized citizen, strip him of citizenship,
and deport him immediately.

he used a picture of a real person. that's how they got the charge. of course if you follow the thought process out, that means that catfishing is an arrestable crime in TX

Again the only thing these pos Democratic Socialist party assholes can run on is hatred, fear, division and racism. They will lie, steal, forge or do anything necessary in their perverted sadistic minds to save America from conservative ideology and MAGA.  He needs to be strung up and caned for election interference by creating a deception.

Just my 2 cents

My bet is that the opponent in the election caught Patel.  Probably did a Google image search on the profile pics he posted.
Then they turned it over to the po-po.  

Patel was appointed to Biden's White House Asian American Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (WHAANHPI) Committee.  Basically a pro-Asian immigration group.
That alone would make some conservative folks in Texas not like him.

Funny thing is there's a good chance he would have won without doing that. His opponent's district was redrawn to force him out plus one if the nicknames for the county now is "New Dehli on the Brazos"

Indian press covered these fake "racial attacks" Patel made on himself as "incited by people like former President Donald Trump"

I live in this county and am also surprised he was arrested.  None of the locals could figure out why he was arrested.

There is another reason he was arrested but it has nothing to do with laws broken.

Probably crossed some other democrat

It's popular among democrats to pretend to be victims of racism.  Didn't you know everything is racist today?  You car, your house, and even the air you breathe are now racist according to democrats.  And if that doesn't make look like big enough victims among their insane peers, they make up personal attacks, like "two dudes wearing MAGA hats..." or this scumbag's bullshit.  They're evil human beings.

I am afraid that there is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public.

What the hell is an online impersonation charge?

You can be charged with having a fake Facebook account? And it was a felony?

Of the entire story this is the only thing that came to mind to me.  Seems iffy at best because anyone with any sense uses a fake Facebook account. Especially if you are in charge of anything or own a business
