Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton calls impeachment proceedings 'illegal'

A day after a Texas House committee unanimously voted to recommend Ken Paxton's impeachment, the Texas attorney general held a press conference calling upon his supporters to peacefully protest Saturday's House vote.

The committee issued 20 articles of impeachment against Paxton.

Unbelievable- he just accused everyone else of exactly what he does. His lack of acceptance of responsibility and remorse makes it even more crucial to examine his defiance under the microscope

Such a shame. Despite these allegations, I've always loved how he carried out his duties as Texas AG. If he is removed, I hope his replacement is just as dedicated.

Why not work with those across the aisle from you on some real pressing issues instead of just filing lawsuits no wonder government doesn't work

I can't believe he started off his press conference calling political parties corrupt.

What does Biden have to do with what Texas state law Maker or doing to him.
