Local senator votes to impeach Texas AG on trumped up charges

 

Jacksonville's Robert Nichols joined in the sham impeachment by voting against Texas voters.

The Texas State GOP controlled both chambers of the 88th Legislature's regular session ( Jan. 10 through May 29, 2023). Instead of dealing with illegal immigration and fentanyl pouring across the open southern border, lowering property taxes; and keeping children safe in schools, a faction of alcoholic RINOs in the Texas House led by Speaker Dade Phelan (Beaumont) used the session as a coup against the duly elected Attorney General Ken Paxton. Paxton beat George P. Bush overwhelmingly during the 2022 primary run-offs. Boo-Hoo.

 

Not a single shred of evidence was presented in the 16 articles of impeachment- the same talking points created by the Bush/Rove team and picked up by the media to smear their political opponents. Democrat run newspapers continue the farce of "Paxton's legal troubles..." They even paid Paxton's other Republican challenger Louie Gohmert, who had a snowball's chance in hell becoming Texas' Attorney General, to pretend it was real. The goal is to have Joe Biden's DOJ railroad Ken Paxton out of office, opening the door for George P. & Associates, because they can't win a fair election. 

Ever wonder why nothing ever gets done in Washington DC or Austin?

The RINO class always sides against what is best for Texans. And unfortunately, factions of the Texas government along with former East Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert take their marching orders from the politically defunct members of the Bush dynasty. 

 

The KISS ASS Party is united undermining the conservative agenda.

Congress is a whorehouse and the Texas House of Representatives is a drunken frat house. They don't give a rat's ass about what's best for Texas and line up like lemmings for the Bush family. Jacksonville's Robert Nichols showed his loyalty by voting on the record that Paxton was guilty of make-believe crimes that could never be proven. Kelly Hancock (Fort Worth) was the other Republican State Senator to vote to remove Paxton on concocted charges.

 

 Looking forward to the primaries.

State Senators Nichols and Hancock voted with Democrats to remove Ken Paxton. Both these esteemed Republicans knew the hearsay they voted to impeach on was patently false, yet they did so anyway, even after voting to dismiss four of the charges. Both are up for reelection in 2026, counting on their hometown media to cover up their constituents being stabbed in the back. Paxton's innocence gives them that much more access to out-of-state lobbyists at the public trough.

Only two Republicans crossed the aisle to vote in favor of conviction: Kelly Hancock of North Richland Hills, who voted to impeach Paxton on 12 articles, and Robert Nichols of Jacksonville, who voted to impeach Paxton on 11 articles. (Source: Texas Tribune, Sept. 16, 2023)

"A senate trial is something you just wouldn't understand..." 

Nichols voted Yea Jeb! on Article 5 involving a grand jury investigation conducted by a State appointed prosecutor looking into federal law enforcement's alleged misconduct. After being raided by the FBI, Paxton donor and Austin real estate investor Nate Paul claimed a cabal of area businessmen tied to George P. Bush had forced his properties into foreclosure and into a rigged federal bankruptcy court. Even though Paul had lost no money, Paxton agreed to look into it. Kelly Hancock voted for Article 8 regarding the alleged pay-offs of whistleblower complaints against the State (that were delegated to Paxton's staff and the legislature ). No witness testimony detailing wrongdoing was introduced into evidence, including a no-show of Paxton's so-called paid "mistress."

You can bet everyone in Ken Paxton's circle is being electronically monitored by the "granite countertop" police.

Whenever AG Paxton did his job, Bush loyalists accused him of a crime. Once under oath, House prosecutors' and their witness' litany of conjecture and lies crumbled under simple cross examination. House Impeachment Managers even convinced a retired Texas Ranger to make a fool out of himself on the stand, hoping to give their horseshit some gravitas. They made the whole thing up.

"Look at me... I'm not a lying piece of shit."

After millions of tax dollars wasted, the duly elected Texas Attorney General was acquitted on all 16 articles of impeachment. Primaried House Republicans who voted to have a sham trial in the senate will claim "they just needed to see the [non-existent] evidence" they were told "was overwhelming..."    Meanwhile, actual corruption and nepotism is ignored by those who owe their political careers to the dwindling influence of the Bush/Cheney clan in Crawford, TX. They invest in wide open border policies to keep the familial money flowing in their anti-American get rich schemes. Wonder where all those millions of illegal aliens crossing the border wind up?

Coming to a town near you. 

"Why Colony Ridge Should Serve As A Warning To The Rest Of The Nation" - US Rep Brian 10/5/23

Any voter wondering why their communities are overrun with crime and drugs can simply look at the shysters they put in office. Ever heard of the illegal alien haven Colony Ridge? The 50-square miles of investment real estate in Robert Nichols' southern most senatorial district he helped finagle? In 2017, Nichols squeezed in "local and uncontested" legislation to allow Colony Ridge land developers to give "owner financed" home loans to tens of thousands of illegal aliens. (Source: HB 4341, 2017) Now the Mexican drug cartels have overrun the Liberty County school districts with drugs and overwhelmed municipal services with an estimated 50,000 plus in new unvetted residents. Closer to home, Robert Nichols has the lowest conservative rating of every Republican in the Texas State Senate. 

 

As usual, it's all a big fat lie.

Bottom line is Robert Nichols is an uppity part-time con artist raised in East Texas good ol’ boy subterfuge. It's exciting to be part of a clandestine clique, like George Walker Bush back in the old CIA days. Nichols enjoys the back-room double-dealing as much as the shrimp cocktail dinners he attends. He is cut from the same cloth as other two-faced RINOs who take credit for all the pro-Life bills that get passed, while holding them up in committee and voting against them. He gets to fool everybody back home. And that is exactly what the idiots who put him in office want. Come election season, local newspapers will claim Senator Nichols "shares our conservative East Texas values," while in reality he routinely sides with liberal Democrats and against basic Judeo-Christian principles. The leftist Texas Tribune agrees:

At the least conservative end of the GOP ideological spectrum is a single senator, Robert Nichols of Jacksonville. Nichols has a Lib-Con Score that is significantly less conservative than those of 17 of his 18 Republican colleagues.

Governor Abbott blames Biden for dead migrants smuggled by Palestine, TX truck driver

 

Somebody has to pluck the chickens, bale the hay, and milk the cows. Those hired ranch hands are illegal aliens shipped into Anderson County and surrounding areas by the thousands. They plant the saplings in the National Forests for timber companies and clean the homes of the wealthy. Their employers are large property owners in East Texas and Greg Abbott's campaign donors. The truck drivers who haul them in from the Southern border and up to the local dairy farms are resident CDL operators, living in the friendly Ol' Piney Woods.  This isn't "human trafficking;" it is cheap seasonal labor facilitated by both Republicans and Democrats. 

"We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas..."

In April, Gov. Greg Abbott ordered state police to inspect every commercial vehicle entering Texas through a port of entry. To immigration experts, Abbott's mandatory commercial vehicle inspection had little to no effect on the flow of illegal immigrants from Mexico into Texas. 

Despite Abbott's attempted immigration security measures, earlier this week and 200 miles from the border in San Antonio, 53 undocumented workers perished in a tractor trailer that made its way from Mexico on Interstate 35 through multiple federal immigration checkpoints. No inspection was performed on the rig or it's cargo contents.

Before the vigil candles were lit, Governor Abbott hopped on Twitter to blame Joe Biden's open border policies, despite several of President Trump's immigration protocols including Title 42 still being in effect. (Source: Greg Abbott blames Joe Biden for migrant deaths, but the governor’s own border security efforts have fallen short KHOU)

One of the smugglers is Palestine, TX resident Christian Martinez. Martinez and 3 other migrant couriers were arrested and held on federal detainers Monday, June 27, 2022. (Source: Mugshot released for man arrested in Palestine, charged in connection to San Antonio smuggling incident KETK) These drivers aren't paid by coyotes or Mexican drug cartels to bring illegal aliens to their destinations. They are long haul truck drivers working for the lumber companies and Walmart distributors in East Texas. They are compensated by the chicken processing plants and cattle ranchers who line the pockets of those in Austin. They are also paid by the illegal aliens themselves for the transport. Their big rigs and semitrailers aren't checked by busy immigration authorities.

Law enforcement doesn't question the employers of deported illegal aliens who return to East Texas for work, even after they kill children. Local media misspells their names, buries their criminal histories, and most certainly never publish the names of those who hire and house them. (They also don't report or withhold income taxes but that's a subject for another topic.)

Until Chamber of Commerce Republicans begin to arrest, shut down, and fine their donors who hire illegal aliens for cheap labor, tragedies such as these will continue. Who are we going to replace them with? Open border communist psychopaths like Beto O'Rourke? Governor Abbott will surely appoint some inbred crony to look into the immigration matter while Texans remain held hostage. Talk of actual immigration enforcement is just lip service from career politicians.

It's easier to play both sides of the border fence.

As a footnote, both drivers have been indicted in the Western District Federal Court for the deaths of 53 smuggled illegal aliens. (Source: DOJ) Governor Abbott continues to bus detained illegal aliens deeper into the United States, preferably to Democrat controlled safe havens, where they can register to vote and swing Presidential elections. Authorities and media claim Christian Martinez of Palestine, TX is illiterate; however he isn't too incompetent to help drive big rigs through federal checkpoints with 50 + illegal stowaways. 

On Wednesday, August 31, 2022, the federal court in San Antonio declared during a detention hearing that Christian Martinez would be detained pending his trial. Previously reported as "too incompetent to stand trial," text messages revealed Martinez was responsible for the transnational truck loading manifest that evaded immigration inspection. (Source: KETK)  A federal judge denied bond for the 800lbs. truck driver, who is not a flight risk, though he could get stuck in the bathroom. The McDonald's in Palestine, TX are safe for now.
