Former President Donald Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) on Saturday spoke out against the Texas House of Representatives’ attempt to impeach Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.
On Thursday, the Texas House’s General Investigating Committee, composed of three Republicans and two Democrats, voted unanimously to refer 20 articles of impeachment for a vote on the House floor.
The allegations against Paxton include misapplication of public resources, bribery, and obstruction of justice, Breitbart Texas reported.
“It is a sad day for Texas as we witness the corrupt political establishment unite in this illegitimate attempt to overthrow the will of the people and disenfranchise the voters of our state,” Paxton said in a statement on Thursday.
Trump and Cruz issued statements Saturday supporting Paxton as the Texas House debates ahead of voting on the articles of impeachment against Paxton, also on Saturday.
Trump highlighted Paxton’s recent reelection in his statement, calling the legislature’s move an example of “ELECTION INTERFERENCE!”
Trump said:
The RINO Speaker of the House of Texas, Dade Phelan, who is barely a Republican at all and failed the test on voter integrity, wants to impeach one of the most hard working and effective Attorney Generals in the United States, Ken Paxton, who just won re-election with a large number of American Patriots strongly voting for him. You would think that any issue would have been fully adjudicated by the voters of Texas, especially when that vote was so conclusive….
….I love Texas, won it twice in landslides, and watched as many other friends, including Ken Paxton, came along with me. Hopefully Republicans in the Texas House will agree that this is a very unfair process that should not be allowed to happen or proceed—I will fight you if it does. It is the Radical Left Democrats, RINOS, and...

So where is our favorite Globalist / GOP-E Presidential Candidate, Ron DeSanctimonious, on this issue?
Well, someone is speaking out against it. First I have heard. The fact that Trump is one of those people carries weight with me because if anyone knows inside and out what a sham impeachment is, It is Donald J. Trump.
Texas Republican House Speaker Dade Phelan is bought and paid for by Democrat establishment bankroller Charles Butt. He is Dade’s largest donor. This should clear up why Phelan wants to destroy Texas AG Ken Paxton. He is beholden to his liberal forces. ~Emerald Robinson
Sounds like the voters in Texas have a lot of RINO state representatives to remove in the next election.
Every political is corrupt. There is too much easy access to money for any man to remain honest.
The Deep State happily encourages politicos to take advantage, but they keep records and that is there top weapon for destroying anyone who gets out of line.
I think DeSantis was basking in the afterglow of Massie from Kentucky throwing his endorsement to him...the same Massie, one of eight RINOs who voted with the Democrats to support a veto of a bill that proposed to reinstate solar panel tariffs on Communist China.
Just let that sink in for a moment.
Good
Abbott should appoint Paxton as Soecial State Prosecutor to go after these Austin punks.
Soecial = Special
“Congressman Thomas Massie is a Conservative Warrior for Kentucky’s 4th Congressional District! An MIT graduate and a first-rate Defender of the Constitution, Thomas fights hard to Protect your Liberties, especially the First and Second Amendments, which are under siege by the Radical Left. Strong on the Border and our Military and Vets, Thomas Massie has my Complete and Total Endorsement!”

Trump said, in part:
“It is the Radical Left Democrats, RINOS, and Criminals that never stop.”
So, so true. It’s like the movie “The Terminator”. The cyborg robot in that movie—it will not stop coming at you until you are, or it is, dead. The entities listed by Trump are much the same in their nature. Nobody on the side of law, order, freedom and integrity should think otherwise or act on the basis of a contrary assumption.
Ouch! Nice.
“You would think that any issue would have been fully adjudicated by the voters of Texas, especially when that vote was so conclusive.”
A jury comprised of all the voters of Texas have spoken and Ken Paxton is innocent.
RATS....RATS....RATS AND RINOS...RINOS...RINOS!!!
Time to send them home and Save Texas!

Can anyone point to the yeas and neighs of this vote? I want to know how to vote when my state rep runs for reelection.
The Bush-bots are at it again.
It looks like the Deep State is trying to set Texas up for the steal in 2024.
One is the politics of support.
The other is support of our enemies. I wouldn’t expect you to know or understand the difference.
