Texas 1 – Swamp 0

Mainstream news has the sadz: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was acquitted on 16 impeachment articles on Saturday, thwarting an effort to remove him from office over allegations of corruption. “Attorney General Warren Kenneth Paxton Jr. is hereby, at this moment, reinstated to office,” said Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, the Republican president of the Senate who also presided over the trial.

  1. Their masters will not he happy.
    Forget getting out of Texas…get out of the US.
    And take the Cheney clan with you.

    1. Yup. A step too far. They outed the speaker (there are calls for him to step down), there are plans to primary the RINOs that voted against Paxton, and there are calls for clarification regarding the spending for what was supposed to be a slam-dunk of a case (a la Shifty-Schiff) with the potential for “lying in an affadavit” charges.

      Pass the popcorn?

  2. What a rotten way to cancel the voters will! Levy false charges against their choice. Disgusting. THIS is not what “Democracy” looks like … let alone a Republic.

  3. ((In a press conference after the vote, Texas state Rep. Andrew Murr, lead prosecutor in the impeachment trial, criticized the vote, saying, “This trial painted an accurate and clear picture of an out of control attorney general who refused to listen to the desperate warnings of his conservative lawyers that he had entrusted to help run his office.”))

    Short version: Paxton ignored the Bush plants that were placed within his inner circle for control purposes.

  4. One of the things that’s common knowledge here in Texas is that there’s a lot of Democrats that knowing they didn’t have a chance in hell of being elected, registered and ran as Republicans. Too many voters, not doing their “homework”, voted for the well financed/well publicized candidate in the primary. Usually the “tell” is that they run, calling themselves “Common Sense Conservatives”. (I’m surprised that Beto O’Rourke hasn’t re-registered as a Republican 🙂 )
    So between the “Rinos”, and the Democrats masquerading as Republicans, you can see how our tax dollars got wasted.
    There will be a “reckoning” at the ballot box.

    1. I’ve long suspected that was going on. Here in Canada they’re referred to as ‘compassionate conservatives’ and they compromise any policy that’s even remotely conservative. I guess that’s why it’s called ‘liberal democracy’.

    1. Glad to have you on the site. Check-in with your acolyte Progressive Pat while you are here. While you are on the web take a look at the Book of Revelation. Interesting read for you and your buddies

  5. Don’t worry, they’ll cut off the rest of the quote where the person testifying admitted there was no evidence of a crime provided to the feds

  6. I like Harold Wrenn’s take on this on his Telegram channel – he is echoing similar calls from others who see the reality of the elites tactics. Now it just depends on whether Paxton has the stones to follow through. It’s long past time for non establishment Republicans to go scorched earth on the Dems. Play as dirty as they do. Evidence? Facts? Norms and conventions? Don’t need any of them, as long as you crush them. Then it becomes a zero sum game, until you win and they are vanquished. We’ll return to norms and rule of law once the commies are defeated.

  7. I watched about half the impeachment trial. There was a lot of innuendo. They proved nothing. Some of the ?prosecution witnesses even said there was no evidence of guilt. The start of the process was someone overhearing that Paxton was getting new granite countertops in exchange for favours. Before and after pictures of his kitchen showed no new countertops. Paxton was supposedly getting free home repairs/renovations worth $120,000 for basically a valueless favour. The day the bill was due and paid in full was the same day staff went to the FBI. This was supposedly heading off investigation. Primary all the corksuckers who wasted everyone’s time.

  8. I am somewhat embarrassed to say that I defended W back in the day although he still had to be better than Gore or Kerry.

    1. I feel the same. It was a case, then, of supporting the less bad. Today, though, I will not do that. The Uniparty is just that and only the outcast partyies of the right offwe any chance of change. Germany, UK, Italy, France … PPC in Canada.

    2. Well Thomas, if you read up on the JFK assassination, you may have a change of heart. The bushes are scum of the earth, and had knowledge of what was coming down the pike, and there are those who suggest wh george was a shooter, and he was photographed standing in front of the depository, 20 minutes after the kill. Also a he had the FBI set up and arrest James Files, the shooter on the grassy knoll, who died in prison if I remember correctly.
      BTW, there were possibly 7 shooters that day, and there is evidence that there were at least 4 shooters.

      666

      1. Nah, there were at least 450 shooters including several Bushes, Sam Giancana, J Edgar Hoover, Gordon Liddy, Nixon, Johnson, Yoko Ono, Groucho and Lucille Ball. Oswald was the only person in Dallas who didn’t do it. 😉

    3. “I am somewhat embarrassed to say that I defended W back in the day although he still had to be better than Gore or Kerry.”

      Me too, and for the same reason. Also, few people realize that he was much smarter than he let on…that folksy charm of his was mostly for show.
