Why Ken Paxton Is Done For

 While Senators sit as jurors, Paxton grifts the rubes:

In the lengthy email published on social media by a Dallas Morning News reporter, Paxton touted his role in pushing back against President Joe Biden’s policies and cited “crucial victories” against “Big Tech tyranny and deceitful business practices.” 
“I will NEVER SURRENDER,” he added before asking supporters if they can spare $50 “to help me stand strong.” 
The fundraising email came hours after Paxton attorney Tony Buzbee again demurred on questions about the financing of the suspended attorney general’s defense. After Buzbee mentioned that lead prosecutors Dick DeGuerin and Rusty Hardin were being paid $500 an hour for their services, witness Jeff Mateer asked Buzbee about his own rate. 
"You'll find out soon enough,” Buzbee responded.
Which pours kerosene on the fire to remove Paxton from office and make it permanent. Why go through all this just to let him back in at the next election? Where’s the fight against public corruption in that?

Does Paxton not realize we can all read this kind of thing? Or does he not care?
