Conservative defeats a Bush in the primary, then the Democrat in November. Then the House impeaches.

Sound familiar??

I don't know how corrupt Paxton is, or if he is at all.

But it's been clear for years that the RINO's don't like him at all.

They couldn't convince the people to remove him so they will remove him themselves.

The GOOBs are upset because Paxton keeps going after Bidenskyyy and his DemonRATS instead of non-RINO GOOBers.

Repukes dare not even utter the word impeachment for any Rats and the country is in shambles. This, I have no doubt has to do with his staunch support for Trump. Why are no Rats being impeached anywhere in the country but their going after their own?!?

He doesn’t impress me in the way he responds. He sounds like a purely power politics player. I voted for the guy only because there was no capable challenger, but I heard him on Mark Davis’ show yesterday morning and was completely unimpressed. And his statement about “ the rule of law and the will of the people” ignores that they are NOT the same thing.

As a Texan this is no surprise, but at least there may be some upside in that Paxton is popular among the base here and they will be reminded that the Bush apparatus still runs this state similar to the situation in Arizona with the McCain RINO’s. I’d be surprised if the full House does this but who knows. Country club Bushies....gag.

It’s all flaming BS.

Paxton is actually getting things done.

When you think of the Texas State Legislature, think of an old fashioned see-saw. “Normal” is one kid on one end and one kid on the other end.

In the Texas Legislature, roughly speaking, you have about 6 “kids” on one end (Democrats and RINOs) and 3 on the other end (Republicans).

Both sides HATE each other. So, don’t believe this uber liberal media outlet (msn). Even IF the House can vote for impeachment, Paxton still has to be convicted in the Senate.

This is lawfare the Left has been pushing, and succeeding at for decades. Very similar to the push against Tom Delay, only here, the Rinos are after Paxton.

Paxton is likely seen as much too successful at upholding the Constitution and the rule of law.

Therefore, he is a threat to the Rino power structure.

Notice: None of this has been found to be valid in the Courts.

Here’s one member of the committee….the chair…if I can find more, I’ll post….

Representative Andrew Murr, a Republican who serves as chairman of the committee.

Ken Paxton is the Attorney General with the best court challenge against the illegitimate 2020 election fraud conducted in swing states, claiming that their unconstitutional voting rule changes violated the 14th Amendment by denying citizens in other states equal protection under the law. He also made Texas a party to the strongest legal challenge to the Biden’s ATF pistol brace gun registration rule, saying that banning short-barrel rifles is unconstitutional to begin with.

This is the Ken Paxton whom these RINOs are trying to oust in spite of the choice made by Texas voters.

The Democrats know that when reelected, President Trump will nominate Ken Paxton as the Attorney General of the United States and they are working to defeat the nomination right now.

It’s completely illegal

Phelan seeks prosecution for acts prior to Paxton’s election.

That is forbidden by Texas code.

The house has many liberal republicans.

I certainly won’t be voting for any (R) incumbents on my state rep ballot. If they are unchallenged I will write in a name like James Bowie or Sam Houston.

I think there is some fire under all that smoke (he killed the criminal case by getting the county to de-fund the special prosecutors) but he’s been doing a great job for Texans.

And there is a lot of rot amongst the Republicans in the Texas House.

The same RINOs who have turned President Trump’s back into their own Cutlery Racks are now going after Paxton, using the same odious and disgusting playbook that they used on President Trump.
