Direct link to live stream. (Note that the panel that is making commentary is pretty leftist):

Watched trial all week. The 4 rogue whistleblowers are part of a coup to remove Paxton and put George P Bush in power. The Bush names are all over this.....JMO

The last gasp of the Bushes. They can’t be gone too soon.

I agree, this was a move by the Bush Cartel for try to get George P in office. They have run out of clout to steal from the taxpayer.

The worst was Neil Bush, I almost got into a fist fight with the tit years ago.

In his September 14, 2023, Federalist article, "Impeachment Case Against Paxton Implodes As Witnesses Admit No Misdeeds," Jonathan Richie stated:
A week and a half into the impeachment trial of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, the case against the conservative fighter is falling apart in spectacular fashion.

Witness after witness, all called by the House Board of Managers, have testified under oath that they either have no direct evidence against the attorney general or explained that the articles of impeachment were simply untrue....

As if to punctuate the absolute disaster of the House’s argument, Rusty Hardin, the 81-year-old lawyer leading the prosecution, accidentally rested their case-in-chief before the other side had a chance to cross-examine the witness who was still sitting on the stand.

When he tried to take it back, Tony Buzbee held him to it, and Lt. Gov. Patrick agreed, ending the prosecution’s case.

At the beginning of trial, Buzbee told the Senate, “The prosecution and the press will tell a whopping story … [but] it’s a tale of sound and fury; it signifies nothing.”

And after a week and a half and more than two dozen hours of testimony, it appears that the impeachment gambit against Paxton really did signify nothing.

Tony is a genius, I’ve known him for years.

I haven’t seen the defense flaying the prosecution this badly since I had jury duty in 2017.

Paxton wiped the floor with P. Bush in the last election. Sore looser.

From what I’ve seen. Paxton has most of Texas behind him. This was just a bunch of Bush GOOBers pulling a Liz Cheney/Adam Kinsinger.

Amen to that. They didn’t even try to conceal that this whole fiasco was an attempted Bush relevancy-grab.

“From what I’ve seen. Paxton has most of Texas behind him. This was just a bunch of Bush GOOBers pulling a Liz Cheney/Adam Kinsinger.”

You can always tell who is the most effective at fighting against the radical left. They’re the ones, like Paxton, that are getting all the attacks ‘from’ the radical left and their globalist RINO minions.

“Any proof the Bushes are behind it? Come on.”

Freudian slip? I never mentioned the Bushes... yet you leaped to the assumption that I was referring to them, nevertheless.

Methinks thou dost protest too much. My comment referred to “attacks ‘from’ the radical left and their globalist RINO minions”. Some folks in this thread merely connected the dots via logic and common sense. And yeah, it does make sense to those that actually ‘have’ logic and the powers of observation over political matters of the past decade or so.
