Following his recent acquittal from impeachment charges, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has embarked on a bold mission to target numerous members of his own party in the upcoming primaries. Paxton's primary targets include legislators, state judges, and even Republican House Speaker Dade Phelan, who played a pivotal role in Paxton's impeachment last year.
This internal strife within the Texas GOP has escalated into a fierce battle, characterized by personal attacks and political vendettas. Paxton's efforts, although he is not on the ballot himself, could significantly impact the future direction of the deeply conservative Texas Legislature, potentially shifting it further to the right.
