Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is now going nuclear to ensure the Texas fleebaggers never return to power.
Paxton announced Friday afternoon that he has filed a “historic” lawsuit with the Texas Supreme Court to declare all 13 seats vacant.
“The rogue Democrat legislators who fled the state have abandoned their duties, leaving their seats vacant,” Paxton said in a statement. “These cowards deliberately sabotaged the constitutional process and violated the oath they swore to uphold.”
“Their out-of-state rebellion cannot go unchecked, and the business of Texas must go on,” he added. “I have asked the Texas Supreme Court to declare what has been clear from the beginning: that the runaway members have officially vacated their offices in the Texas House.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Paxton announced on Tuesday that he would file to vacate Democrat seats if they did not return to vote by the end of the week.
“I will seek judicial orders declaring that runaway Democrats who fail to appear by the Speaker’s deadline have vacated their office,” Paxton said in a statement.
Paxton’s announcement one day after he launched an investigation into the Texas Majority PAC (TMP), a George Soros-funded PAC, for illegally funding the runaway Texas Democrats’ activities.

This is a good response.
Interesting
I love it.
Excellent. Stop tolerating Dimocrat antics and play hardball.
This guy is no slouch.
Take it to them. No other way makes sense.
Slap several of them off the bench at the kitchen table and the rest will sit up and behave.
And when the dust is settled, the first order of business should be to change the quorum rules.
I had kinda hoped he would be the US Attorney General
I hope they get a warrant to look at all their bank accounts to look for bribes taken and throw the book at everyone involved in paying bribes for their little trip. Beto going up the river, too?
the state supreme court also said that Paxton couldn’t investigate voter fraud, so I guess we will see.
I’m hoping, be nice to take 13 dems out at one time.
Declare the seats vacant, hold special elections, and elect Republicans to all of those districts.
They did it to the Republicans in Oregon last year.
Way better than Pammy
I think the Governor can appoint and fill those seats.
I’m pretty hard core anti-Democrat.
I don’ like Republicans that much either.
However the Democrats were elected by a vote.
I don’t support some judges nullifying that vote.
If the Democrats don’t want to do their job,
then budgets that give their voters free money won’t get passed.
Just be patient.
He is needed in Texas. There is no gop er in Texas who is not a rino or a wimp or both. Bush bots
Louis gohmert challenged him a few years ago for this seat and brought up a terrible irrelevant smear campaign
Then disappeared Recently twanged on SKB show to an adoring reception. Pain in the A
Where would gohmert be on this now? Listening to jasmine cricket no doubt
The Texas Supreme Court has no authority to declare anything in this matter. It is STRICTLY a matter within the Texas Legislative branch. Separation. Of. Powers.
We keep giving those judges powers that they shouldn’t have. Our legislators and executives are mostly worthless.
