    Get fucked Paxton, those were “ongoing” because somehow being over your own investigation lets you just push it back indefinitely.

    ”…arguing his removal would “override the will of the people” who elected him with knowledge of his alleged misconduct.”

    TF? So if I read that correctly, it’s not that they’re denying the misconduct, they’re just saying “well everyone knew, so what’s the big deal?”

    Republicans don’t want laws to affect them and a democracy. They want to rule from minority. And force their beliefs on the rest of us.

    I had hopes after the impeachment that he’d be permanently removed. Not high hopes, but hope was there.

    Now that I know his PAC bought off the judge though, Id be surprised if he gets anything more than a fine and a finger wagging.
