Does Ken Paxton think he’s Donald Trump?
Hope a protest could help keep him in his job*?
Embattled Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) called for protests ahead of an expected vote by the state House on Saturday on whether to impeach him over allegations of misconduct and the criminal charges that he is facing.
Paxton said at a press conference on Friday that the impeachment effort is trying to overturn the will of voters who elected him to a third term as attorney general in November. His denunciation of the effort came after the Republican-led House General Investigating Committee voted to advance articles of impeachment against him to the full House following a monthslong investigation.
…
If Paxton is impeached, he would need to step aside from his office while he awaits a trial in the state Senate, under Texas law.
He said if the House impeaches him, he looks forward to a “quick resolution” in the state Senate….
Note….
Actual vote for removal/convection must be by the Texas Senate….
