Horrible people stick together.
Bottom less Repudican corrgoption.
The old name for it is "the good old boys club".
this is the icing on the hypocrisy cake
If politicians put all their effort in helping the American people like they do attacking each other- the USA would be in great shape
Patrick got $3 million from a Paxton PAC. Curious how much the acquitting senators each got.
The wives of those acquitting senators better get wise; those guys just gave the thumbs up to using ine's office to keep a mistress.
Just good Christians following the Bible.
If you actually watched the trial you would have noticed that there was literally no evidence put forward for 14/19 articles and the evidence in favor was pretty limited and lacking key facts necessary for a conviction. The house ignored rules when passing the articles and the speaker was clearly hammered for most of it.

@johnmcauliffe8824 if you had watched the trial..there was at least 1 charge that should have impeached him..and you know this!
@@johnmcauliffe8824 tons of evidence
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha theyre all the same!!! Our justice system doesnt apply to them...
Ridiculous !! Crooks ! Also these guys need to have limited time in there position , not just a road toad that makes tons of money and don’t give a crap about the rest of us No politician should be allowed to sit without term limitations so corrupt and lazy ridiculous
Texas deserves Paxton.
Bribery is allowed in texas.
Cattle rustling is not though
Watch him get convicted in his criminal trials now.😂
He did this. This was his brand of crooked play. It could/ should have been done long ago. He set it up to look like it was unprecedented. Gtfohwtsm
Good for him. Regardless of how you feel about AG Paxton the way the House did this Impeachment is an embarrassment to the rule of law and Texas .
How do you not put witnesses under oath? How do you not allow the defense to defend themselves? How do you only give them 4 hours to decide on whether or not to send the Impeachment to the Senate?
This was a joke and I would say the same if Paxton was a Democrat because these things always have a way of boomeranging.
well , you could call it a show trial to assassinate his character in the public arena , or you could call it a kangaroo court , or simple incompetence (unlikely but not impossible) ..........
Do you realize that the impeachment process is similar to a grand jury ?
You are ignorant to how the law works. Thanks for acknowledging it.
Why is okay for Paxton to steal from the taxpayers?
Paxton is on trial for two felonies and is under investigation for taking bribes. He's a POS.
How soon will Danny Boy run to Fox News for a in depth interview to talk about justice..not the 3 mill he took months ago..Good Ole Boys...still strive in Texas I see!!
Witch hunt FAIL🤣
Party above country, and against justice, once again.
Lol, when corrupt politicians judge the other politicians. Maybe the indictments will start to shift and move one day.
The rule of law still prevails.
THE LAW ONLY APPLIES TO THE ONES THAT DO NOT AGREE WITH CORRUPTION...PLEASE GIVE US THE RECIPE TO GET A GET-OUT OF JAIL FREE CARD, MAYBE A GOOD WAY IS TO CHANGE OUR LAST NAME TO PAXTON AND OTHER USEFUL IGNORANT PUPPETS THAT ENJOY THEIR POSITION IN GOVERMENT.
Witchhut ? Now get back to work and shut down that border.
According to what I heard from the Lt. Gov. here this was handled no different than the way Democrats trampled President Trump.
@@jessegutierrez8841there’s more criminals on this side of the border…
More gun control and go after all the junkies too.
Biden’s Satanic
Boohoo, you lost your triple hearsay impeachment trial you fraudulently brought.
The Reagan Republican party has long since died. At least Republicans and Democrats have something in common. It's all about politics, nothing about justice.
It's called the Uni-Party. They get together and make back room deals to get rich and screw us over. MAGA
Your false equivalence is falsely equivalent
😅😅😅😅😅 this is hilarious. Wasted everyone’s time knowing they were gonna let him off
So you want someone not guilty found guilty simply because you don’t like them? Do you see what a tyrant you are.
Excellent assessment of the situation. Good speech by Dan Patrick.. hope the constitution can be changed as he has suggested.
I agree. How much of this was a Republican inspired effort?
2/3 in both house and senate stupid
Change the Constitution so Republicans can commit more crimes use some common sense.
@@larrybe2900 Most of it

This speech should be included in the Texas history books! Due process is a MUST in every criminal investigation. Every person, no matter whether to sorriest SOB on the planet or the innocent deserves nothing less. This case should have never been brought! All it did was cost our state money, money for total injustice. The next person who could suffer the same is YOU! We have rights and NOBODY can deny those rights to you!
Due process will be given Senator Paxton in the criminal trials. You're right that this speech should be in the history books, but I don't trust Paxton or Patrick, who have been acting a lot like Democrats lately. There is more sleeping around by 'true conservatives' in Austin than has been revealed, and more corruption by 'true conservatives' than has been revealed. Many of Paxton's allies are not really conservatives, as they have radical proposals like secession and removing the boundary between church and state. Mark my word, if we do not clean out the filth in our own party, we will lose Texas to the Democrats.
Congratulations Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for standing strong and proud! Thank you for the work you do and in representing thousands of Texans who believe in you. God bless and protect you and your family always.❤❤🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I watched the testimony....the charges should have never been brought. The star witness used words like we feel and we believed....no facts just feelings...the Rinos want him gone.
Meanwhile, we're in shrinkflation crisis at the grocery store without our knowledge
Paxton was stealing from the taxpayers. Why are Republicans okay with that?
Texas 🤦🏻♂️
Nothing like another good criminal in power
Sadly this wasted time and money for our great State, this should NEVER have been brought forward.
There should be criminal charges brought in situations like this where it's a clear political move. I don't want my money being spent on other countries or on other interested parties, I want it spent bettering my community and ONLY for that purpose.
My Texas clowns, always in the ring performing.
So its ok for Ken Paxton to ude Texas tax payer money to pay off his lawsuits when it comes to the affair partner? LT. GOV DAN PATRICK WAKE UP!!!
He didn't do that though. Which is why he was acquitted lol... Pay attention.
Yup wake up. This scumbag is just protecting his own class.
That is what the republicans like to do -- spend taxpayer dollars on needless investigations and trials.
@shonuff4951 the audacity of Paxton even requesting it, should have got him fired and criminally prosecuted
I'm not in Tx. No skin in the game. It's not even clear what the specific issues were. All I've heard are innuendo and vague accusations. Whenever possible allegations should be broght during campaigns. The voters not the Hiuse and Senate shoukd decide.
You should learn what he did, and understand why he shouldn't be impeached and removed.
Forsaken principles and morals stood up for what was crimes so you will be held accountable for this as a leader when the lord Jesus christ the only true holy and righteous judge comes back
Same thing the Jan. 6 hearings
Cant wait to see all the house Republicans who voted for this, loose their seats to MAGA Republicans.
Why does MAGA mean they want our government officials steal from the taxpayers?
Let's go trump epstines pal!
@@thesswb4463 Let's go CHINA-BOT, all the way back to your CCP.
How about showing the Bush Family in morning about this right now? 🤣
We the people voted for paxton, he has represented us well. Very disappointed that this case was brought on a hunch. I have watched who is who, and determined who is for Texas and who is for the wef and themselves. Will vote accordingly on next election. Primaried. Paxton was railroaded like trump in russia russia. Stop this lawlessness.
those federal indictments will soon beg to differ. this isnt over by a long shot
All for wanting to investigate a corrupt FBI
You need to clarify yourself. It wasn't we the people It was we SOME of the people. Cuz I sure as DIDN'T vote for him and I know a lot of Others who didn't vote for him.🤦♀️🙅♀️
Might want to re-read the Mueller report…
@@jimburris demon. The Democratic lie and blame the Republican.
Get the damn Democrat and RINO bums OUT!!!
GOD BLESS TEXAS!!!
Texas is a total embarrassment.
He sounds guilty as well
Ken Paxton's pac donates 3mil to this guy so... Yeah
How does a guy who is given 3mil to his campaign fund, not recuse? Sounds like a fair arbitor to me. /s
How was Ken Paxton’s wife allowed on the jury?
She’s a State Senator and she wasn’t forced to recuse.
Do you see the contempt for law, down in Texas?
@@WeeWeeJumbo I agree
Are they saying that he did not do the things or just not bad enough to impeach?
Yep - they're saying he shouldn't be impeached. He definitely did the things he was accused of. But, TX Republicans support their fellow criminals.
Thank God!
This state is bs.
God bless you sir for your wisdom!
I think you misspelled corruption.
So basically, Republicans are totally cool with the rampant corruption of an indicted criminal like Paxton, so long as it's one of their guys. Got it. Also Paxton donated like a $ million to Patrick's re-election campaign just before his impeachment trial. Chef's kiss. 😂😂😂
In the natural course of traditional jurisprudence, a counter-suit is warranted.
Who knew that the Texas State Legislature (of all possible bodies) might lead this Nation on the road back to sanity.
There is no countersuit to a misapplied impeachment trial.
All Rhinos should be defeated.
Why is one a RHINO for not wanting our government to steal from the taxpayers?
First you should learn how to spell RINO instead of looking like a typical ignorant republican cult member, who supports a traitor.
Impeach Biden
Witchhunt for a 2a advocate is over, welcome back Ken Paxton.
Lt. Gov. Dan Goeb is a chameleon. A typical politician.
Paying off whistleblowers ...which Ken did...shouldbe enough!! C'mon Man!!!! HAA!!!!
What a joke,Texas gop , get ready to lose your seats p.s. Dan Patrick is the biggest hypocrite of all. Get ready folks , you just got screwed ,and not one damn kiss.
The only people who are gonna lose their seats are the NeoCon bush loyalists republicans who lead this shame charge to get rid of paxton.
Hypocrite? How so?
He's there too do you an I a public service , but when obviously,
Face it this was a party vote not a legal one so where does Patrick land ,he spent several minutes explaining what a good job they did when the fix was in
What a powerful speech! Full of common sense and legal propriety! I am a Texas resident. Where can I find who voted to impeach?
And do what, Rodney? Wave your limp noodle at them? Lol.
Rules don't mean ANYTHING to demarats.
This was all republicans who impeached their own criminal, you ignorant fool.
They had no evidence AT ALL!!! Busy still went to the FBI 🤷♂️
So basically, Republicans are totally cool with the rampant corruption of an indicted criminal like Paxton, so long as it's one of their guys. Got it. Also Paxton donated like a $ million to Patrick's re-election campaign just before his impeachment trial. Chef's kiss. 😂😂😂
You clearly didn't pay attention 🙄
@@seasuas8755 hey, limpdick. Paxton has been under *ACTIVE CRIMINAL INDICTMENT FOR SECURITIES FRAUD SINCE 2015.* Now answer me or I win.
@@Frenchy26 clearly you weren't paying attention, slag. Paxton has been under *ACTIVE CRIMINAL INDICTMENT FOR SECURITIES FRAUD SINCE 2015.* And the jerk who wanted old people to sacrifice themselves to the economy during COVID, Patrick, got millions from Paxton for his reelection and yet DIDN'T recuse himself?? Amazing. So, maybe you're the one not paying attention. Now answer me or I win.
@@seasuas8755 nothing? Didn't think so, you coward.
@@Frenchy26 no response? Looks like I won, slag.
Texas politics is such a joke, as long as your good for business they'll keep you. Have fun with those "affordable" summer energy prices!
Yay! Texas, our Texas! All hail the mighty State!
Texas, our Texas! So wonderful so great!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂dems lost their hope .
Dan isn't even from Texas. Do better Texans.
Wasted time and money
Lt Dan where is Forest?
Paxton aka. Forest 😂
Travesty just goes to show that party loyalty over honesty
Those behind the unlawful impeachment need to be rooted out and charged with the various levels of corruption involved.
What about Paxton's corruption?
Why is okay for him to steal from the taxpayers?
Unlawful? Paxton is a corrupt scum bag.
You need a Swastika armband.
Paxton is not that good of an elected official he should have been impeached so we must vote him out
@@keithspence489 Well said ChinaBot. F.O. a D
This vote was definitely not a tough vote to make obviously
Paxton needs to sue the house
Loutinant Dan! You aint got no legs!
Or nuts!!!
He looks like Angela Lansbury.....
Good,good good.
TRUMP 2024 Take America Back!
The Bush Crime family gets smacked down😂🤣
Hell yes!!! Another witch hunt bites the dust!
I'm calling bullshit.
Lieutenant Dan, you got new legs
You have to feel sorry for citizens when judicial proceedings fail the people. This was a bipartisan trial. The good people lost
our leaders should be held to a higher standard - it should only take 45% of the vote to be impeached
Lieutenant Dan?
Those trumpet GOP
Just can't seem to win
1.Hillary
2.Election
3.Ken Paxton Impeachment
4. They will not find anything on Biden Impeachment
No? How about the stuff Biden has done in front of all to see? How about that?
Is Patrick a corrupt politician? Absolutely. Next
How many republicans just snitched on their boss. Their strategy is to point back.
Ken Paxton is a proud Texan and Texas is proud to have him. Yes he did what he was accused of but that does not rise to the level of impeachment in Texas.
He
Broke the law?, Attorney General break law ?
Now bring charges against the false witnesses and file suit against the corrupt federal bureau of insurrection
Hunter and Joe still walk free
Money changed hands
Angela Paxton, Ken’s wife, is a State Senator.
She was on the jury, and she wasn’t forced to recuse.
This symbolizes the absolute contempt that the modern Republicans have for anything like laws, norms, or decency
Pedocrats are getting so desperate 😂😂😂
Make Texas Great Again
Ken Paxton for Governor
Sadness for the scheming Bush Family tonight.
Not a bad presentation for a former sports talk show host.
"Thorough and thoughtful"? The two very things that were lacking in this impeachment trial . . . unless these attributes can be credited to the darkside.
Dan ....would have been interesting to hear from the mistress? What procedures forced you to move her testimony? Someone ..please tell me!!
What does that have to do with this? Stay focus
@cecilem8732 just saying that Dan P is a hack! Shouldn't have been allowed to even sit in that chair..he spews better crap on Fox News..maybe he should be a Faux Host! 😊
Was Branden Cammack ever paid??
Patrick is a joke!
King Clown of the Texas Clown Show.
Get'em!
Okay Texas go after Ted Cruz now
Sir, what "integrity" does the body have if you call yourself a "judge" without even having earned a Juris Doctor degree? Go back to bed.
Well said!
Good -- glad the witch hunt was realized.
Texas is a sad state!! Just SAD!!!
Yep
So sad, that we have a net gain of citizens every year from “happy” blue states
Not compared to California, New York, Oregon and many other states.
@@itsmemailingyou4234you forgot Florida 😂
While not a Texan, or overall, much into Politics of the USA; (I am a Canadian), I admire this speech, this analysis of Lt. Governor Dan Patrick.
The good old boy club is still in play in Texas.
Thank you, Lt. Governor. Justice has been served.
Yes! It's the right of politicians to take money, help the people who donate to them, get their girlfriend on the state payroll. Why, when the lawyers appointed by a state official say he is corrupt and taking bribes, why it's obviously some kind of scam against that person.
When are you guys going to realize that this is the way every average person is prosecuted in regular criminal defense hearing EVRRYWHERE!! That is why I am calling for the abolition of the grand jury system EVERYWHERE. It is the most ABUSED part of the system that exists.
Grand Jurys only purpose is to determine if there is probable cause someone committed an offense. Its up to the Defense/Prosecutors to debate that offense, to determine guilt.
@@danielroque8504 well damn, there's a nuanced answer, as if I don't already know that assembly-line answer! Clearly you've never been indicted.
👏👏👏 Good day to be a Texan! 🤠🇺🇸
