Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton received support from President Donald Trump this week as he faces an impeachment trial in the Lone Star State.

“Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was easily re-elected last November, but now establishment RINOS are trying to undo that Election with a shameful impeachment of him,” the president wrote on Truth Social.

According to The New York Times, the impeachment trial rests largely on allegations that the attorney general was having an extramarital affair and that he also received money from Mr. Nate Paul to pay for home renovations in return for legal favors.

Trump remarked, “Who would replace Paxton, one of the TOUGHEST & BEST Attorney Generals in the Country? Could it be a Democrat, or even worse, a RINO?”

You are simply the best! Thank you Texas for your support. Texas grassroots, I will always fight for you.— Attorney General Ken Paxton (@KenPaxtonTX) September 8, 2023

Paxton has earned a reputation for fighting for election integrity in Texas and has taken steps to secure the southern border by bringing legal action against the Biden administration on multiple occasions.

Last year, Paxton was reelected to serve as the state’s attorney general in a landslide.

As reported by RSBN, Paxton himself has called the impeachment trial “illegal” and has further published a 347-page report that details his defense against the allegations being made against him.

According to the Texas Tribune, AG Paxton has pleaded not guilty to 16 articles of impeachment. On Wednesday, Paxton additionally remarked on X that he would be flying to Maine next week to join former Fox News host Tucker Carlson for a sit-down interview discussing the “last two weeks in Texas politics.”

He added, “It should be interesting!”

In his comments on Truth Social, Trump continued, “The voters have decided who they want! Democrats are feeling very good right now as they watch, as usual, the Republicans fight & eat away at each other. It’s a SAD day in the Great State of Texas!”

He’s right. It is a sad day in Texas. It’s always a sad day when elected republicans show who they really are.

It is right and just that President Trump succor and support Paxton! He was boots on the ground in the Steal of 2020. In only 17 days of investigation his office identified more than 22,000 fraudulent votes, 99.4% for Biden.

With this evidence in hand, Paxton sued four battleground states and asked the Supreme Court to invalidate their votes and declare President Trump the winner. Due to "standing", the Supremes could not see his Credible Reliable Absolute Proof, and with tears in their eyes they had to decline the case.

From what I can see, the worst he's accused of is arranging for payouts to a woman he was sleeping with outside of his marriage, and a couple other minor felonies and abuses of power.

That's nothing compared to the civic virtue and Bold Spirit he displayed during the Steal of 2020.

after the full acquittal by the majority of the Senate in the #PaxtonimpeachmentTrial.

Every Texan needs to listen to what he said and how he said it.

This might be the most important speech made by a lieutenant governor in Texas history.
