Problems pile on to the impeached Texas attorney general
in the Texas Tribune and elsewhere, $1 million of the money is an outright gift. The other $2 million is a loan that may or may not have to be repaid, perhaps depending on Patrick’s performance during the impeachment.
“That money is just right out there in everyone's face,” Harrington said. “In another country we would call it corruption. Here, we call it access.”Jonathan Stickland , who runs the PAC, has loudly proclaimed that any Republican who votes for impeachment is “risking their entire political career.” On Aug. 22, he went on theshow and said that Defend Texas Liberty is spending millions on Paxton. Talk then turned to some of the very conservative Republican senators who will decide the AG’s fate, including Bryan Hughes, Kelly Hancock, Charles Schwertner, Charles Perry, Drew Springer, and Mayes Middleton.
