AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was acquitted Saturday of all charges at a historic impeachment trial that divided Republicans over whether to remove a powerful defender of former President Donald Trump after years of scandal and criminal charges.

In the end, Paxton was fully cleared by Senate Republicans, who serve alongside his wife, state Sen. Angela Paxton.
Angela Paxton was not allowed to vote. But she attended all two weeks of the trial, including the reading of the verdict, when all but two of her fellow 18 Republican senators consistently voted to acquit her husband on 16 impeachment articles that accused him of misconduct, bribery and corruption.

How did Texas have such a lop-sided vote in their house of representatives???
Because the house is infested with RINO’s which we voted in due to the BS they were spewing that we accepted as truth.
Nothing but a bunch of con artists that take advantage of the ignorant and uninformed.
Deep dives should be done on anybody running for an office of public trust. This nonsense has gone on for entirely too long and look at the result.... corruption and graft at practically every level of all governments.
Yours is the only logical explanation.
“... and is a broader victory for Texas’ hard right...”
