Ranked #3 in the [[Texas oligarchy]] of mega-donors who pour millions into elections in [[Texas]],<ref>https://www.tiktok.com/@christackett71/video/7140661803222076718</,</ref> Weekley is thought to be one of the oligarchs who secretly pushed for the ambush impeachment of [[Ken Paxton]].  Weekly has taken an immense contribution by a [[social conservative]] and yet advances the [[liberal agenda]] by pushing for the removal of this elected [[conservative]] official.  Dick Weekley is a [[Houston]] real estate oligarch, co-founder (with brother David) of '''David Weekley Homes''', one of the largest builders of tract homes in Texas.

Weekley was a big supporter of Eva Guzman in the March 2022 primary, whom Paxton defeated by a landslide.<ref>https://www.texastribune.org/2021/07/12/texas-eva-guzman-attorney-general-fundraising/</ref>  Weekley may have felt humiliated by how his candidate received only 17.5% (third behind Paxton and Bush, only ahead of Gohmert) of the vote in running against Paxton in that primary.<ref>https://ballotpedia.org/Texas_Attorney_General_election,_2022_(March_1_Republican_primary)</ref>  Weekley apparently poured more than $5 million from himself (more than $1M), the Texans for Lawsuit Reform organization he controls (more than $3M), and wealthy donors he directs (e.g., Jan E. Duncan), into supporting Guzman in that failed attempt to defeat Paxton in his March 2022 primary.<ref>https://ballotpedia.org/Eva_Guzman</ref>
