Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was kicked off the House floor by the Sergeant of Arms on Tuesday afternoon.
After surviving a lawfare impeachment trial two years ago, Paxton really angered the Texas RINOs after he announced a run for US Senate as Cornyn’s challenger.
Tuesday is deadline day to take up Senate bills in the Texas House and instead of dealing with priorities, the Texas RINOs are using their time and resources to remove Ken Paxton.
It is unclear what led to Paxton’s removal.

If he’s still the AG, I wonder if he has any right to be on the floor of the House at all. That may be the issue.
According to another article, “While access to the floor of the House is limited when business is being conducted, statewide officials and former members of the Texas House—of which Paxton is both—are regularly granted access.”

Does the AG typically get to sit in on TX House sessions?
again i say: Texas is one big Messus. (and has been for a while now.) i sure hope Texas republicans wake up soon.
thank God for FL and TN.
RINOs circling the wagons. 😣
A great effort is being made to flip Texas.
“””i sure hope Texas republicans wake up soon”” . Texas has 40 electoral votes which the democrats are trying to get. If the GOP/RINO’s do not wake up it is like they are fine with handing it over to the left. If the left wins Texas, we all lose
Likely because he doesn't have floor privileges and if you don't have those, you are not allowed to be on the House floor.
Just another hyperbolic, nonsensical article from the TGP. "Developing" - good grief.
Yep. The Last Stand for the Bush Cartel.
He says that he was asked to leave by a staffer, and Paxton replied that he thought it was okay for a previous House member to come onto the floor. Staffer told him that as the current AG he is not included.
While Cornyn is certain no friend of Paxton, there is a cadre of RINOs who are in reality Democrats in the Texas House. Even though Republicans control the House, these RINOs actually gives Democrats power. They were also the reason they tried to impeach & remove Paxton as the AG. Thank goodness they failed, so now they are acting out like he childish idiots that they are.
He was there because some Republicans had invited him there.
RINOs Dade Phelan and my rep Angie Chen Button are despicable.
“...there is a cadre of RINOs who are in reality Democrats in the Texas House.”
I blame the RINO voters in those districts.
Either that or Democrat voters know that they are really Democrats.
