The sleeziness is pervasive and obvious.

Which leads me to believe that Paxton will survive. After all, we're expecting the Texas GOP to vote against someone who broke laws to do a business buddy a favor and to cover up an affair?

Evidence against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton released | The Texas Tribune

https://www.texastribune.org/2023/08/18/ken-paxton-impeachment-evidence/

Ken Paxton’s team said there was no evidence to support impeachment. The House published nearly 4,000 pages.

The Senate, which is conducting the trial, published the exhibits Thursday night. House impeachment managers say Paxton abused his office to help friend and political donor Nate Paul.

Of course she won't. Rules are for other people. Pretty sure that's the Paxton family motto. Wonderful example for their kids, if they have any.

Political IQ

@realTuckFrumper Throwback to post-2020 election & Paxton's subversive acts:

"In the suit [filed in SCOTUS], Paxton says the states’ Republican-led legislatures should instead appoint electors — a largely unpopular idea that officials in those states have already rejected."
