Do not let it escape your notice that not a single professional Republican entity has stood up to show their support for Texas AG Ken Paxton or congratulate him on the clear and decisive impeachment victory against the corrupt UniParty system in the Lone Star state. Not a word from The Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA), or any other professional Republican group.
Instead, only President Donald Trump and the overwhelming majority of the MAGA base have stood strong with Paxton – before, during and after the smear campaign to remove him. Keep this BIG UGLY data point in mind. On the federal side, with Obama-Biden flooding the border with illegal aliens, Ken Paxton was considered a threat from both the White House and the Texas Governor, Greg Abbott.

You do realize that MAGA and DJT are now considered ‘enemies of the state’ right?
President Bribey told us so.
Conditions in our land have much in common with the godless Soviet Union. Human god-men like Lenin and Stalin had the power to declare who could live and who could not on the basis that evolution had by-passed them. Whoever the god-men psychopaths branded as dinosaurs, weeds, and useless eaters by-passed by evolution would be killed.
Here our own psychopath god-men are also empowered by Darwinism in much the same way as their Soviet counterparts. Darwinism dehumanizes mankind allowing psychopaths to do harm to them, assassinate them, destroy them in many ways,
Should the day arrive when their power and control is total, we can expect a killing machine to be set in motion, and we know who their hated 'state enemies' are.
The WSJ had an article yesterday in which the authors, who obviously didn’t watch the trial, blamed the acquittal solely on “one party rule”.
“One-party dominance in a democracy means the main political debates occur in the ruling party, including personal political feuds. That explains the overwhelming decision by Republicans in the Texas state Senate on Saturday to acquit Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on 16 articles of impeachment filed by the Republican Texas House.”
What really happened Saturday is that Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, who runs the state Senate, chose to rescue Mr. Paxton in a rebuke to his rival, House Speaker Dade Phelan. All politics is very local here.
We wrote at the beginning of the Senate trial that Mr. Patrick looked like he might examine the evidence with an open mind. He had kept quiet during the House debate. But we were wrong. It’s now obvious the fix was in from the start and that Mr. Patrick lobbied his fellow GOP Senators to unite against the House articles of impeachment. Only two GOP Senators voted to convict Mr. Paxton, and one of them is 78-year-old Robert Nichols, an independent-minded committee chairman.
Mr. Patrick’s bias was on display immediately after the Senate trial ended when he blamed it all in highly personal fashion on Mr. Phelan. “The Speaker and his team rammed through the first impeachment of a statewide-elected official in Texas in over 100 years while paying no attention to the precedent,” Mr. Patrick said. He added that the impeachment should never have happened and that he would move to rewrite the state constitution so it doesn’t happen like this again.”
Buzbee doesn’t actually answer questions. I suppose that is appropriate because those questions should be up to Paxton to address if he chooses to.
I saw the WSJ editorial as well and was shocked at its shallowness and dishonesty. The impeachment of Paxton was conducted mostly in secret in the Texas House, which was an indication that the effort lacked substance. Paxton fought, and the case against him fell apart before the Texas Senate because no violation of law was shown. A separate criminal investigation based on securities fraud claims before Paxton was elected remains pending and seems unfounded as well.
And now, its time for payback. Its time for the voters of Texas to primary and drive from office every single last corrupt RINO who voted for this. Time for the voters to organize against the RINO coup plotters, select good candidates and prepare to instigate a massive bloodbath in the Texas house and Senate Republican primaries coming up in a few months.
Only watching other RINOs having their political careers ended will start to make other RINOs think twice about going along with the establishment against the voters.
Patrick’s bias??? You don’t like truth... Maybe you can work on the sold out to China GA rinos before making stupid statements about TX leaders. Kemp&Raffy are a major part of the 2020coup... ymmv
Good advice, but the problem is our TX Republican primary voters too who just rubberstamp names they recognize on primary ballots.

I’m hoping your comment is directed to the authors of the article I was quoting and not at me.
How does the WSJ survive even? They seem to face the same problem as Fox. They could have their own sandbox all to themselves but they want to dig in the other over crowded sandbox.
Uniparty members in the Texas House, ie those in the Bush league and Democrats, under the drunk Democrat Speaker of the House of Texas (disclaimer: he pretends to be a Republican, but is speaker solely due to Uniparty votes and appointed Rats to 40% of the Committee Chairs!), had not a single document of evidence, had not a single witness under oath, used secret and closed sessions against Texas House precedents, most of their “evidence” was from “investigators” who were not witnesses and not under oath whose “evidence” was hearsay of hearsay of hearsay which would never, in any court, be allowed to be presented, and gave members only hours to review this made up story. Those members were under pressure from the drunk Speaker to “vote the right way”.
In the Senate hearings, which I watched, once these “witnesses” were under oath, each and every one admitted that they had NO evidence. Once actual documents were produced into evidence and examined, those documents refuted the charges. This hearing did not require nor receive bias rulings from the Lt Gov. All this hearing needed was due process. Once due process was applied, there was NO evidence of wrong doing.
The situation you describe is grotesquely corrupt and exists at the highest corridors of power as a much larger entity.
.
It’s time to let the voters of Texas know that voting for a Demonicrat or RINOcrat gives aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the State of Texas and violates Article I, Sect. 22, of the Texas State Constitution.
“But we were wrong. It’s now obvious the fix was in from the start and that Mr. Patrick lobbied his fellow GOP Senators to unite against the House articles of impeachment.”
Strange that they should focus in on the supposed bias of Patrick and gloss over the fact that on cross-examination, there was no evidence presented.
And they whine about a fix when the Republican representatives voted wholesale for the impeachment and the democrat Senators voted wholesale for the impeachment.
Fix??? The Journal is pathetic.
“How does the WSJ survive even? They seem to face the same problem as Fox. They could have their own sandbox all to themselves but they want to dig in the other over crowded sandbox.”
The formerly premier news outlet has fallen quite a bit over the past few years. Opinion pieces are on the front page and presented as news and actual news is hidden in the opinion section. Everything is slanted leftwards.
Subscribers call them out on it in the comments and their response is to censor those comments. Whatever you do, do not point out that Joe Biden has dementia. That word triggers an automatic “violates community guidelines” response. Every article seems to require a “but I hate Trump” disclaimer to be included no matter the subject matter.
Wall Street loves quantitative easing just as much as the Biden's do. Moreso, they are in it for a lot more money.
BTTT
Anyone know what the vote was in the Texas Senate?
