Fallout grows after impeachment of Texas AG Ken Paxton
I'm surprised they are doing this. Usually they just turn their heads and say "But what about Hunter"
The Texas Republicans HAVE BEEN turning a blind-eye to his crimes, jeez for how many years! Time is up and I pray Paxton is put behind bars for years, followed by Traitor Trump and Greg Abbott! 🙏🙏🙏
They are still doing it. They want to IGNORE Paxton’s 7 indictments while they investigate everyone else.
As long as they don't lose a Congressional seat, they'll throw a sacrifice into the volcano once in awhile. Santos is safe though he should have been expelled by now.
Notice they started caring once he started messing with their money.
@@dicksledge2447 that’s EXACTLY it. If they would have approved his request for tax payers to pay his lawsuit, they would have been complicit in his crimes. They could no longer turn a blind eye.
Paxton is the definition of a grifter.. a long term weasel who finally got exposed ..by his own staff by the way... punt him into jail
If an ordinary citizen did this he/she would be going to jail/prison for many many many years but it seems there's bi-standard justice between rich and poor and the level of power and connections a person holds‼️🙄🤔🤬😤😡😠😳😱😭
@@rosex3271 no it just takes more evidence, than what they had on him, to put away high profile suspects, like him. Of course a normal person would be in jail by now. Because a normal person can't afford to cover up everything, making it harder for investigators to find the evidence needed to lock them away. Did you know Al Capone was a Mob Boss for 6 years before the FBI finally got him on tax fraud? Because he was able to cover his crimes and the fact that he gave the orders. That's normally the case with high profile suspects. It's not just that there is this 2 tired system. Yes at times it can seem like that. The court and prison systems get more money out of them, from them appealing every ruling made, then they would by having them behind bars. The point is to drain them of funding as much as possible before putting them away. That is if the evidence is sound proof.
He fitted right in. 🤭
He's been exposed for years. It's pathetic that it has taken this long for the legislature of Texas to do anything and Paxton's argument that he was "prohibited from presenting evidence to defend himself" is a stupid argument for the uneducated. The impeachment trial in the Texas Senate is where he will be given the opportunity to present evidence. That's how impeachment works. Trump used the same argument when he was impeached, twice.
I believe this was the sequence of events:
1. Four of his TOP people reported him the the FBI.
2. The four were then fired
3. So they sued Paxton for wrongful termination.
4. They won, and the judge awarded the plaintiffs $3.5M
5. So Paxton, ever the grifter, tried to get the state legislature to pay the award! Yes, he wanted taxpayers to pay for his misdeeds.
He’s a CRIMINAL! Needs to go away
34 more to impeach in the Retrumplicrime party.
It is no wonder that he is being defended by criminals.
I'm still wondering how Texas law can allow someone who's been under indictment for EIGHT YEARS NOW to even be AG.

@@glennmaddox9108 Not true. Texas gets lots of electoral votes and I have no faith in the current Texas officials to treat the voters fairly or to respect the integrity of the election. But you knew that.
@@jumperpoint I KNOW you are not a liberal and talking about integrity of the election. This is Texas business. And yes, we voted Paxton in because he is what we, a majority of the Texans, want. Go mind your own state business.
OMG, how crooked of an AG can one be???
You could be Paxton-level.

And the best part, the taxpayers again will pay for paxtons defense of course, he will be worth many millions but oddly not have money to pay for lawyers.
How about all them tax dollars spent by the Democrats on Trump fake accusations 7 times they tried and not one real charge anytime that's how desperate Democrats are
Just like IQ45
Pop him you will be in prison in two weeks.
@@olliejones4082 unfortunately. Funny how you defend someone who grifted you though. Just how daft are you, boy?
Notice how this happened in 2015 and no representative had much to say until ken wanted the state to pay the 3 million dollar settlement?
The twenty charges in the impeachment are independent of the securities fraud charge. This is a whole new bunch of misbehaving.
To be fair he has made the state a whole lot of money
The 'real crime' here is asking the taxpayers to pay for the $3M with former employees due to his retaliation. I've seen this before. We had a local state court judge who fired this tipstaff and secretary (a married couple) for reporting him for being drunk on the bench (it later surfaced that he had also been cited in Florida for public drunkenness and never reported it). Anyway, the taxpayers paid to settle the case.
The majority of taxpayers apparently don't care having voted to send him back to the statehouse twice after the corruption probe was announced. That is the real crime.
thats what thieves do use money of hard working individuals to pay bills they owe
WHEN IS PAXTON GOING ON TRIAL FOR SECURITIES FRAUD? HE WAS ARRESTED IN 2015 AND HAS YET TO BE BROUGHT TO TRIAL!!!!!
The same voters who voted him in for three terms?? Those ones??
@@FromtheKing1 That in itself is UNBELIEVABLE!! It is also a black-eye on the judicial system of America!!
Republicans in Texas are like, "fire him, he knows all the laws, because he has broke most of them".
GREED!
@@bobheck8326 Mistress is what brought this on, they overlooked his corruption.
He hasn't murdered enough black people or Mexicans!
I just cannot imagine the level of abnormalities and brainwashed mentalities of these Americans in Texas who voted for this criminal, corrupted, fraudster, con, hypocrite, sociopath, extremist, narcissist, shallow, and narrow minded AG‼️🤷🤦🙄🤨😕
I was going to post a comment but your comment already spoke volumes for me. Thanks much 😊
He wasn’t PREVENTED from presenting evidence. He has done everything within his power to keep these charges from going to court. Everyone keeps forgetting his own employees turned him in.
But the DOJ says there isn’t enough evidence to pursue legally sooooooooo once again, you look like a buffoon
Impeachment is like bringing an indictment - it's just a determination to bring charges. The defendant NEVER gets to present evidence at that stage. He will have every right to present evidence in his trial in the Senate. Complaining that he couldn't present evidence in the impeachment is a bald-faced lie, and he also knows VERY well that it's a lie. But he lies anyway because he ALSO knows that there are a lot of ignorant fools who will just eat up his lies. There's no down side to lying, the ignorant population won't hold it against him.
Bingo! It’s the audacity of him hiding votes then complaining about his evidence or lack there of being suppressed🤣. Hilarious I might say!!
By everyone I assume you mean republicans.
And the impeachment process is not a trial. It’s more like a grand jury. Defendants don’t testify there because there has been no indictment. Paxton just hopes his voters are too ignorant to know what’s what.
"There are questions over whether she will recuse herself..."
No there aren't. She won't. These are profoundly unethical people, and have shown as much, so why would she EVER recuse unless the rest of the senate forced her to?
Which they won't, of course.
Especially since republican women always vote against their best interests
Republican Taliban. GOD is behind them nothing is too mean or dastardly when you are on a faith backed crusade.
If Paxton is suspended from his job, why is he still tweeting under the Texas Attorney General account?
Because he suspended, shill. When you are expelled, you are removed. They literally make you genius liberals in factories.
Right
Because no one denied him access to the account.
@@joenarbaiz1640 Obviously. Sort of runs counter to the claim of "suspended" from the job.
The senate has to vote on the articles until then it is gossip fake news, the 2nd man on his office will be in charge until the senate votes,common sense crickets AMERICA 🇺🇸
Indicted 8 years ago and hasn’t gone to trial? Thats a shame right there folks!
I'd be extremely surprised if she would do the proper thing and recuse herself. I'll also be very surprised if the party of law & order follows through and actually gets rid of this crook.

It's a mirage, he'll be back in office before you know it, and keep up criming as usual. He's been dodging securities fraud for 7 years now and never seen the inside of a court room. That's just the way our government works.
Now Texans need to vote out ALL the rest of the unfit GQPers immediately!!
Amen. !!!
I truly hope this MISCREANT will go to JAIL !
Until Death Sentence or even Trump (spare us all) pardons the criminal!
He needs to face charges for ALL of his white collar crimes.
If common Texans did any thing similar, they’d be in jail in a heartbeat
Couldn't have happened to a more deserving chap. 😢
These efforts will all be for nothing if the Texas senate does not do it's job and remove this stain from office.
As a Texan, when I voted, there was one person at the head of the list as to who I wouldn't vote for and that was Ken Paxton. What's wrong with people? What's wrong with voters? Don't you all do just a little research before casting your vote? If the system worked as it should, Paxton never would have been voted in.
Texas repubs gerrymandered Democrats into oblivion, beginning while W was governor. Unless every Democrat in Texas votes, or unless these scoundrels just die off, the crooks will continue to rule the state bank.
With most family units needing both parents to work to make ends nearly meet and take care of their children. When do they have the time to cruise the net to see what the politicians have done? It is why the sound bite has been honed to a fine pitch. Most folks have little time in their day to track politicians like was done up through the mid 70s when the family unit was broken by making it so both parents needed to work.
Agree. I won't vote for criminals
@@SvenJT it's more the brainless "my daddy did this so I will too" idiocy among them. Conservatives can't think for themselves.
What grand jury allows the target to testify?
8 years and still haven't been inthe courtroom.
So glad that crook is finally facing justice
🎯🎯🎯
Aren’t there ENOUGH CORRUPT POLITICIANS in POLITICS,that when there’s a CHANCE to get one OUT, DO IT!
He has been re elected with 7 indictments hanging over his head. Paxton has done everything within his power to keep these charges out of the courtroom. A complete abuse of power and egregious obstruction.

This is making me want to drive downtown and sit in on one of these hearings.
Be sure to act a fool to get put down
@@mariastevens6406 why would I do that?
I believe Paxton has held back Texas on many fronts by refusing to let Texas Voters vote on many Topics, all due to his pockets being filled by outside entities. His time may have finally come.
Exposed.
He responsible for half of deathrow inmates last chance before Abbott says No.
When the state's lawyer doesn't know how the impeachment process works...
What a joke. Ken has been running for years from his charges, and he wants to complain he can't defend himself. Like he doesn't understand he's about to have a trial. His wife is a State Senator. What a liar he is.
He's a Teas politician. What did you expect?
He has done everything within his power to keep himself out of the courtroom. A complete abuse of power and obstruction.
and the fools that keep electing him....lol
Texas. Need I say more
You are calling nearly 4.3 million Texans that voted for him fools? People saw through the liberal bs attacks against him and re-elected him 3 times! Paxton is the most effective and hard working protector of our liberties (and your too liberals!) Texas AG in decades! He maybe the best AG in the US!
I’m sure you buffoons are from NY or CA so you’re voting record says it all.

Republicans put party above all else. Now that he’s been caught - they want to play victim . Anyone that doesn’t tow the party line is labeled a RINO.
I mean, they DID re-elect Abbot after their power grid fiasco
@@mariastevens6406 that wasn't Abbotts fault
Delicious!!! The characters of Trump , Governor Abbot and Senator Cruz should be judged by the company they keep.
"Birds of a feather flock together". These flockers are definitely together.
Judge Judy: “A period of detention in a chilly upstate facility can be a great attitude adjuster.”
Paxton complained about the Speaker of the Texas House being Drunk on the Job ..The Drunk got his friends together to go ahead with the Years Old Charges ...If he hadn't complained He'd still be free to Grift away ...
And the public will never know everything that he did!
Abbotts silence tells you everything you need to know about his character...
That would be another confirmation of career criminal's guilt if Trump and Cruz are defending him.
Paxton can be glad I am not his wife. I wouldn’t recuse and then I would vote to conflict. If she puts up with this, too, that’s all we need to know about the both of them.
We call that complicit.
@@DBRising ya, she literally just thought that using lots of big words would trick people. They forget that those who aren't conservative typically have brainpower, hence why we move forward
Only the best, in keeping the courts full again.😂🤣
8 years and this man is still in office.. sad😢😢😢
Just how does a federal indictment drag on for 8 years. Can you imagine that happening to anyone else without this privilege.

Geeze the GOP is really good at claiming political motivation, not that they have any that will win, but they sure do yell it a lot.
Do you know what ignorant looks like. If you don’t just go look in the mirror. And you’ll see exactly what it looks like. Democrats are destroying our country paying China back for the millions $ they have given him and Hunter. And you have to know that. And you are still with them. That tells me exactly what you are!
Every republican accusation is an admission
I don't know why they think trump is doing so much for the American public or why they think he's a billionaire when he is begging for money to help pay for his legal fees. 😊
Trump doesn't pay his attorneys and anyone else that he hires. He's a wolf in sheep's clothing..!
Because you can . Dems do it all the time 😂

@@unbroken1010 , WHEN IS PAXTON GOING ON TRIAL FOR SECURITIES FRAUD? HE WAS ARRESTED IN 2015 AND HAS YET TO BE BROUGHT TO TRIAL!!!!!
Trump tells his thralls that when the DOJ come after him, they are really coming after them. The cult attach their self-esteem to the cult leader. That's why trump cultists are fact-free and why they do domestic terror attacks.
It's embarrassing he was ever our Attorney General and it took this long to impeach him.
Finally, a political entertainment show worth watching. I’ll be surprised if anything substantial will come out of it though. These shows always start off strong then fizzle out towards the end of the season.
Don't expect anything from the Republicans as far as protecting him!😮
CRICKETS!!! HILARIOUS!!!
They've been protecting him for 8 years.
Republicans supported Santos in NY .
First, Texas is no longer “deep red”. The largest red city is Fort Worth (which won’t last, likely).
I keep hearing this VERY carefully worded phrase where he asks the state to pay the settlement. It’s in all the MSM stories verbatim. I think that’s suspicious. Likely, it’s designed to mislead. IDK.
Paxton seems to be one of those nightmare, careerist animals that sucks up to power while being a nightmare for those beneath him. Likely he’s charmed a lot of powerful people who have no idea who he really is. If there was ever a bipartisan agreement in America, it’s that both sides blindly love their own monsters while hating the other sides who they see as even worse than they truly are. The attacks only help entrench the monsters.
Please, everyone, stop giving your votes, business, and donations to the attackers and monsters!
Gerrymandering will keep the state "deep red" for another generation, at least, in spite of the population breakdown.
@@EmeraldCityVideo Now we are dancing around semantics, but if you have to use gerrymandering to keep power, your state is purple. Just Say’n.
Joe Biden won Tarrant County in the 2020 Presidential election by 1,826 votes. So Fort Worth isn't Red...
When stupidity start to coagulate into large pockets of the population,
It forms a cohesion that swells and intensifies with time.
Trump won by how much again?????😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We need people with integrity…is that so hard? Geez!
For Republicans to impeach and try their own attorney general means that their leadership has found out something SO BAD that the embarrassment of doing this will be less than the embarrassment should the SO BAD become public. You can't convince me that the Texas Republicans have suddenly grown a conscience or a sense of ethics.
What gets me is he's been under criminal indictment for 8 years and still no trial. Anyone else and they'd have been tried, found guilty and served their sentence and be back home with the family.
Simple. Obama and Biden didn't want to rock the boat, and Trump wasn't going to have his AG proceed with the case against a fellow Republican, so it has just sat in limbo.
Because literally everyone there loves lawlessness
Paxton: "I've looked into my behavior, and I've seen no criminality whatsoever."
Lock him up!!!!
I am glad action is taken when anyone breaks the law however it must apply to everyone. We have many who are being protected while some others are being thrown under a bus. Wondering if this is smoke. Texas having trouble while being purposefully invaded?
The saddest part is that the voters didn’t take him out…
Why hasn't this guy already gone to trial after an indictment EIGHT years ago???
I'm slightly shocked that Texas Republicans are trying to hold him accountable (if only because paying the 3 million was a bridge too far for them.) However, the National Republican Party is behaving the same as usual... rules for thee, but none for me!
I too am very shocked they are holding a Republican accountable for crimes committed! I pray it is a trend that will continue across America, Americans deserve to have honest, law abiding representation in our government, not criminals and traitors!!
I believe the only reason he’s getting held accountable is because he insulted another GOP clown.

Trump, Paxton and Cruz. Loving grift..lack of accountability and lies
Forgot Abbot
He openly admitted ON AIR that they intercepted mail in ballots and prevented their counting
She needs to recuse herself, but judging by the party that they’ve become, they’re so corrupt, she won’t :((
This was a result of an investigation. Wouldn't the trail be the place where he would have the opportunity to present evidence defending himself? It seems they believe people are stupid and are incapable of critical thinking. Some people will just believe what they say because they are the authority and the presumption that they are the experts. Abusing that trust and authority is shameful.
The trial will be in the state senate . Members of the house that impeached him will act as prosecutors and Paxton will be allowed to present evidence at that time. The senate will then decide his fate. Interestingly enough, his wife is a member of the Texas state senate.
The quasi-judicial trial takes place in the TX Senate. Paxton can present a defense there. If that fails, he’ll be removed from office.
Any criminal charges, in addition to the 2015 indictment, are subject to criminal law. Which means he has the right to trial by jury.
@@timdowney6721 right. Two different things. Another important difference not being talked about, or at least that I've seen.
No indictment, investigation by democrat lawyers, no sworn in affidavits, no grand jury, no hearing, no trail, no due process. The only thing worse would be a hit man to take him out and do the dirty work.
