I’m sure some timely financial audits could fix most of them. Those boys must’ve gotten something nice for their loyatly to the filthy corrupt power brokers. If not they’re just plain dumber than dirt

Dan Patrick also took the house to the woodshed. He had to keep quiet before and during the trial but after it was over he laid into them.

All 12 D’s voted mostly to convict.
2 R’s voted mostly to convict.
16 Rs voted to acquit.
1 R (Mrs. Paxon) was required to abstain.
The closest votes were 16 to 14 to acquit.
Charge #4 only got 2 votes to convict, #8 9 votes, #9 11 votes, and #5 13 votes.
Four of the original 20 charges were dismissed.
Again, we find out that “impeachment” is only a finding of probable cause. The lower house acts like a grand jury. The standard of proof necessary for removal - though not necessarily “beyond a reasonable doubt” as in a criminal trial - is significantly higher.

Harumph... I want some of my taxpayers dollars back from this total waste of time, effort, and energy. A partial refund of my property taxes would be a nice start. RINO’s need to be heavily primaried throughout Texas as well as the rest of the country.
