The impeachment trial of suspended Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton kicked off Tuesday at the state Capitol, and even though the three-term Republican wanted a quick dismissal of the charges against him, he didn't get his wish.
Paxton has been suspended without pay from his job since May, when the Texas House voted overwhelmingly to impeach him following an investigation by a Texas House committee that presented the chamber with 20 articles of impeachment. They allege Paxton committed bribery and abused the power of his office, among many other allegations. Paxton was ousted by the Texas House after 121 members, including 60 Republicans, voted for his removal.
