Shameless grifter tries to soak the taxpayers once again on his way out the door...
"Despite a ruling from Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar that Paxton cannot be paid while he awaits his impeachment trial, the attorney general’s chief of staff sought his paycheck for the month of June."

Un****ing-believable!! 🤬 includes Texas Tribune link.
“ The law is designed to override local ordinances in Austin and Dallas (read: Democratic cities) that require 10-minute breaks for construction workers every four hours so that they can drink and take shade. San Antonio has been considering a similar requirement, The Tribune says, the new law also prohibits other cities from doing so in the future.

Shafer’s obfuscation of Garcia’s beliefs fits a broader pattern of responses from the political right wing that downplay white supremacist violence in the United States.

#TexasGOP I’m surprised, did they need a sacrificial lamb to show that the Republicans are the good guys or was there just too much dirt? 🤔

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas’ Republican-led House of Representatives impeached state Attorney General Ken Paxton on Saturday on articles including bribery and abuse of public trust, a sudden, historic rebuke of a GOP official who rose to be a star of the conservative legal movement despite years of scandal and alleged crimes
Shit's Getting Deep In The Heart Of Texas...
A Texas House committee heard stunning testimony from investigators Wednesday over allegations of a yearslong pattern of misconduct and questionable actions by Attorney General Ken Paxton, the result of a probe the committee had secretly authorized in March.

It seems some members of the #GOP have cojones and a backbone. More need to stand up.
“After censure, Rep. Tony Gonzales tells #TexasGOP to f**k off. The party's state executive committee voted to censure Gonzales on Saturday for "lack of fidelity to #Republican principles and priorities."
Members took issue with his votes to protect same-sex marriage and bolster existing gun laws, as well as his opposition to a border security bill that Gonzales characterized as "anti-immigration." #GOPHate #Equality #CivilRights #GunControl #Uvalde #LGBTQ #MarriageEquality #Texas
