Campaign records published Tuesday show the group also gave a $1 million donation and a $2 million loan to the presiding officer over the Paxton case in the Texas Senate – Lt. Governor Dan Patrick.
Government watchdogs, however, say their eyebrows went up when they saw the donation to Patrick.
“It also is a warning to all other Republicans that you know, if you vote for conviction in this impeachment trial, that kind of money is going to come out against you in this next election,” said Holman. Macias tells NBC 5 the group's position is that allegations against Paxton should be handled in a court of law and not a trial overseen by politicians.
In an interview before the gag order was issued, Speaker of the House Speaker Dade Phelan, R – Beaumont, told NBC- affiliate KXAN’s Monica Madden that impeachment was “the right thing to do.”
