A Texas House of Representatives investigative committee recommended impeachment for embattled state Attorney General Ken Paxton.
The Texas House Investigative Committee unanimously voted 5-0 to adopt articles of impeachment for Paxton on Thursday, according to FOX 4.
A vote on the recommendation could come as soon as Friday.
If the Texas House votes to impeach Paxton, he would be required to immediately leave his office pending a trial by the state Senate.
The FBI had launched a corruption case against Paxton, accusing him of using his office to assist a donor. He was also indicted in 2015 on securities and fraud charges, but hasn’t yet faced a trial, the report states.
Paxton, who has repeatedly gone after the Biden administration, blasted out the following statement Thursday evening:
Texas faces a critical moment for the rule of law and the will of Texas voters. Only months ago, Texas went to the polls and made a choice. They made their choice during a primary where over 1.5 million Texans cast their vote. They made that choice again when over 8 million people voted in the general election. Just yesterday, four liberal lawyers put forward a report to the House General Investigating Committee based on hearsay and gossip, parroting long-disproven claims. Today, that Committee has asked the Texas House of Representatives to use their unsubstantiated report to overturn the results of a free and fair election. This process provided no opportunity for rebuttal or due process. They even refused to allow a senior attorney from my office to provide the facts. They rejected every attempt to seek a full accounting of the truth.
By attacking the Office of the Attorney General, corrupted politicians in the Texas House, led by liberal Speaker Dade Phelan, are actively destroying Texas’s position as the most powerful backstop against the Biden agenda in the entire country. The RINOs in the Texas Legislature are now on the same side as Joe Biden, Alejandro Mayorkas, and Chuck Schumer, collaborating to tie our hands and render Texas less powerful and effective in the fight for the nation’s future. They want nothing more than to sabotage our legal challenges to Biden’s extremist agenda by taking me out as the state’s Attorney General.
There is a reason CNN called Texas “a legal graveyard for Biden policies.” I am doing exactly what voters elected me to do. It is a sad day for Texas as we witness the corrupt political establishment unite in this illegitimate attempt to overthrow the will of the people and disenfranchise the voters of our state.

I am praying for you AG Paxton and Texas.
Hé is such a big supporter of law and order. I’m praying for him to overcome this witch-hunt just like what Trump has endured. God bless him.
liberal pukes don’t like the truth, they don’t like law and order, and they hate anyone who disagrees with them by displaying hate, dominance, and violence. Praying AG Paxton retains his position.
Me and God are with Ken Paxton.
One of the best AG’S in the country. A real back stop to the BIDEN HORRIFIC AGENDA .
Vote Dade Phelan out of Texas. Texas loves and needs Ken Paxton.
The rat bastards never quit. Anyone who doesn’t know this is politically motivated is as stupid as Kohn.
We all know he does his job unlike the libs in office do. I don’t see how they can impeach him without a trial but hey that’s the name of the game with dims and rinos. If you can impeach a President on trumped up charges they can do anything
All you had to say was fbi! paxton has fought the biden cabal and won and the bastards are tired of it so he must go according to the crooked cabal! texans voted him in want him there need him there to protect us. fjb f the rinos that are getting paid to get him out! Keep Paxton get rid of the others!!!
