   Apparently everyone who calls out Paxton as being dirty is a "Liberal" or a   
   RINO.   
      
      
   The move sets up what could be a remarkably sudden downfall for one of the   
   GOP's most prominent legal combatants, who in 2020 asked the U.S. Supreme   
   Court to overturn President Joe Biden's victory. Only two officials in   
   Texas’ nearly 200-year history have been impeached.   
      
   Paxton has been under FBI investigation for years over accusations that he   
   used his office to help a donor. He was separately indicted on securities   
   fraud charges in 2015, but has yet to stand trial.   
      
   When the five-member committee's investigation came to light Tuesday, Paxton   
   suggested it was a political attack by the House's “liberal” Republican   
   speaker, Dade Phelan. He called for Phelan’s resignation and accused him of   
   being drunk during a marathon session last Friday. Phelan’s office brushed   
   off the accusation as Paxton attempting to “save face.”   
      
      
   By moving against him, Paxton said, “The RINOs in the Texas Legislature are   
   now on the same side as Joe Biden.”
