Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has been acquitted on 16 charges in his state Senate impeachment trial, where he faced accusations of abusing his office to benefit a donor. Paxton, a staunch conservative and ally of former President Donald Trump, portrayed the impeachment as political retribution. He was reinstated in his role after the vote. The impeachment process began after Paxton requested taxpayer money to settle a lawsuit with former staffers who reported his conduct to the FBI. Paxton denied wrongdoing and settled the lawsuit without admitting fault. The Texas House impeached him, but the state Senate acquitted him and dismissed four other articles of impeachment.
