Texas Senate declines to toss impeachment charges against Republican Paxton

The Texas Senate voted overwhelmingly to reject motions to dismiss impeachment charges against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton as it opened a trial spearheaded by his fellow Republicans. The proceedings could strip Paxton of his job over allegations of corruption and other wrongdoing. Paxton, an ally of former President Donald Trump, has been suspended from his post since the Texas House of Representatives voted in May to impeach him on 20 corruption charges including aiding a wealthy political donor and persecuting whistleblowers from his office who accused him of wrongdoing.

Paxton’s fate rests with the 31-member state Senate, which has the power to remove him after a trial that opened on 16 of those articles of impeachment. The trial is expected to last several weeks. Both chambers of the legislature are controlled by Republicans. Read more.

The firm’s revenue had grown steadily for a decade, reaching more than $2.6 billion in 2021, a record year amid a global dealmaking boom. But revenue dropped by 6.6% to $2.4 billion last year, as global dealmaking shrank in response to rising interest rates, high inflation and recession fears. Read more.
