Corruption is a core trait of a conservative politician. Condemning him for corruption would have been the same as condemning him for being a conservative.
Right they’re all bad, but we’re all good, LMAO.
Who are you calling “we”? A quick check of your comment history shows you are a conservative.
Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. Your words are of no value to me.
I’m also a registered Democrat. You assume so much.
LOL. Not sure who you think you’re fooling.
Honestly, not a joke. I’ve been a registered Democrat since the late 80s…even voted for slick Willy Clinton…twice.
How would that prevent you from being a conservative?
It doesn’t. I’m just saying I vote for whoever I think is the best option at the time. Following a hard party line is a fools game.
As I said before, every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. In this case, it’s deception.
GOP the party of criminals.
Game knows game. So why am I NOT surprised
Whatever. Texas gonna Texas.
They are who we thought they were.
Why the fuck did they even bother?
Absolutely vile. I really need to move out of this shithole state.
Take me with youuuuu
I hear Portland is like Austin, but with better weather and a power grid that actually works. I’m considering making the move very soon, honestly.
I’ve spent time in both. I don’t know if there’s more Nazis in Portland, but it definitely seems like there are more Nazis in Portland.
You notice the Nazis in Portland because they stand out rather than fit in.
That is an excellent observation.
We’ve got a pretty bad Nazi problem here in Austin, too. The fuckers keep putting up their racist stickers around parks where children play. Abso-fucking-lutely disgusting.
The mosquitos in portland are delightful. I lived there in high school and had one land on me, look around a bit, and fly off. I didn’t have the heart to kill it.
historic to no one but the clown circus that is the texas legislature. seriously people look it up, the rules are bonkers. im surprised entire state functions as ‘well’ as it does.
Republicans brought charges just to acquit, because he can’t face trial again due to double jeopardy.

He can face a criminal trial if he’s charged. But he probably won’t be, since he’s the attorney general.
Impeachment doesn’t trigger double jeopardy, all it can do is kick you out of office or not
It’s not a criminal trial, double jeopardy does not apply.
Historic in that it will be a mile post in the decline of Texas in history books outside the Dumb South.
Fucking absurd.
Fucking disgusting
Sounds vile. It was surprising they even brought charges against him. Maybe how he individually threatened lawmakers about their reelection (or who knows what else) helped him. Or perhaps whatever persuaded the woman who had the affair to not testify (could it be witness intimidation perhaps?).
What a fucking surprise.
The surprise was that it was his own party that started impeachment proceedings.
They backed off once they realized that it had national attention.
I wonder how many cocks Paxton sucked to get the acquittal.
Getting a feeling this impeachment trial was a signal to other GOP incumbents — do not fuck with our O&G masters.
