Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton 's impeachment trial on abuse of power charges could be in the hands of the jury as soon as this week, the presiding officer said Monday.
The second week of the historic proceedings began with testimony from another of Paxton's former aides who reported him to the FBI in 2020 and accused the Republican of misusing his office to help a donor. Paxton, who has pleaded not guilty, was again not in the Texas Senate for the testimony.
