#KenPaxton #Texas #Impeachment

Is this a different bunch than the ones who ran to other states so they didn't have to vote on a bill. Sonds like the same bunch of democrat slackers.
NOT RUTHLESS ENOUGH FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY? WHERE CAN THEY GO TO FIND WORSE THAN ABBOT? FLORIDA? .
Like a punch to the gut, hearing his wife is a legislator.
Paxton, Abbott, Patrick. Cruz. Vote these 4 piles of turds out . VOTE BLUE. VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE.
Anytime I see any oarty willing to impeach their own for corruption… it is impressive. Once we know more… it will tell us why.
The wife needs to recuse herself because it's a conflict of interest. If she refuses she needs to be impeached next.
Months long? This investigation goes back almost three years.
If trump and cruz are paxtons’ cheerleaders, he is definitely corrupt and guilty.
2:20 "…among those deciding his future, Ken Paxton's wife." 😆 'Murican democracy!
IMPEACH the CRIMINAL
This dude’s been a crook for years. Why now?
Trumpest, waste of oxygen.
More Republicans causing problems for everyone else!!!
I HAVE NO FAITH IN REPBULICANS TO DO THE RIGHT THING
Who u think he works for? (Gregg)
Did you all noticed?????? Republican party is littered with undesirables….. Vote Blue America… Teach them a lesson so that they will be better….
His wife is in the state representative
This Unbelievable. This GOP STRONGHOLD. GOP never Impeach there own No Matter What have done. This Terrifying what’s going on😳😳. Doesn’t make any Sense. Must be deep dark reason. 🙄
So gov vs gop 😂😂😂
Hmmmm are we gonna hear the tub of lard scream “WITCH HUNT” or nah? 🤭
Throw a coin at Clarence he’ll clear him by next week
And republicans will not remove him because… emails or hunters laptop…. idiots.
As much as I loathe American right-wing thinking, those voters should be represented by a competent party.
Currently this is not the case.
The whole GOP needs a purge of its corrupt extremists and to get back on track.
Cruz showing support because he doesn’t want snitched on 😅
Hypocrisy
The will of the people what he tried to do. When Biden won
Republicans are such hypocrites!
texas is out of control!
Draining the swamp
He’s conservative.
He’s a supporter of Trump.
He’s an advocate for strong border security.
He takes decisive action, and doesn’t just emit sound bites.
So…gotta go after him.
The Politicians sold their Souls to the devil. They don't work for you. Why have they left the border wide open? Why do we have people living in tents under bridges in Dallas//Fort Worth? You can smile now, but the day of reckoning is coming to set you straight. When you will be tested by what is coming. Politicians are your enemy number one. How is it that, a person can cross the border illegally and is given five Star hotels with all amenities, while we have people living in abject poverty in Dallas, TX? This a shame on you for being blind to see your enemies, Politicians!
Call me crazy, but I don’t think his wife should be allowed to vote on this in the senate. There’s an obvious conflict of interest.
Republicans are criminals in suits white collar crime
Lolol… You know that Paxton is a crook when republicans bring him down.
Interesting that the only responses are from the left! Trolls or they are taking other views off.
Sounds like they are getting even because Paxton pointed out that the speaker was drunk while on the job.
Firing Squad !
He'll run for president because we all know that people running for president can't be prosecuted.
Attorney General Ken Paxton is the one man who has stood up against the Democrat-Marxist onslaught in the great state of Texas. Democrats and Secret Sleeper Republicans hate him for this.
While serving as Attorney General in Texas Ken Paxton defended 12 lawsuits related to election laws. Democrats wanted to open the elections to mail-in ballots and ID-free voting and sued Texas to institute these unconstitutional practices in Texas elections. RINO Republicans held a secret investigation, did not allow him to present evidence.
White Supremacy is fighting for its life in America —- This explains the Rise of Donald Trump ——DeSatan, Musk, Kanye West, Ben Shapiro ETC are All Representatives of this Horrible Movement
Test
👏👏👏
And they will all fall down. 😂😂 It is just a matter of time and all of the MAGA maggots should lawyer up.
Now seize all of his assets for what civil lawsuits are going to follow and cancel his pension.
He is corrupt as they come and so are the two idiots that came to his defense.
They had no problem impeaching Slick Willy over a B.J.
If only Florida could charge DeSantis with putting his own interests ahead of the interests of his constituents.
