Bush]], of the pro-[[globalism]] Bush family, in the March 2022 [[Republican Party]] primary (and the ensuing runoff).  However, he repeatedly used his office to benefit a political donor, even having the donor hire his mistress as a means of keeping her quiet (notwithstanding his supposedly "Christian faith"), then fired nearly his entire senior staff for contacting law enforcement about his actions.

As a result, Paxton was impeached by the Texas House on May 27, 2023.  Under the [[Texas Constitution]] (unlike the United States Constitution), Paxton was immediately suspended from office, pending the Texas Senate determining at a date TBD whether or not to remove him from office (which would make him permanently ineligible for any state or local office in the future).
