All the serious Articles of Impeachment refer to alleged offences committed prior to his being reelected to office for his third term in 2022. The key question is if the "may have committed before the officer’s election to office" refers to the most recent election or to when he was first elected in 2014. If the former, then the impeachment appears to be illegal and should be thrown out.
If this is tr7e the Speaker of theHouse, Phelan needs to go.
Boom!
Rule of law?
Or Rule of men?
We need to get rid of Phalen and the other RINOS.
VOTE RINOS OUT.
The legal qeustion concerns whether or not the AG’s “elected” terms are, as a matter of law, considered contiguous, or if each is separate, indpendent of each other and does not constitue a legally contigous office holding.
If all the terms are considered contiguous, then matters concerning terms before his recent “re-election” are matters within the law’s scope of scrutiny concerning “while in office”.
I think Abbott could lose on that legal question. He is and he was AG, contiguously.
Laws these days are useless
Toth is dead wrong on this.
When the Republicans in the State House voted to convert our freeways to toll roads, I simply voted against my incumbent in the Primary, and then voted Democrat in the General, as that was a red line for me. As for federal elections, I still have a PERFECT RECORD of voting Republican, regardless of how pathetic some of the candidates were.
(for you Ukraine Supporters keeping files on us, feel free to log the above and use it in the future against me)
My point being that Texas Republicans are PATHETIC - we still don’t have a school voucher program, even though, at times we had VETO PROOF majorities in both the State House and the State Senate (and a Republican governor).
“refers to the most recent election or to when he was first elected”
A plain text question, or a Political question is the determining factor-
Plain Text - if he lost, they couldn’t do it - you hold office and title when elected, so it’s the current election-
Political - RINOs don’t like him so they can do whatever they want. They Are The Law.
Members of Congress are "interviewing" other politicians?
I’m of mixed mind on this. Whilst I think I understand the point, the man did apparently cheat on his spouse.
Sympathy, I do not have.
What’s the political makeup of the TX Supreme Court?
