| 0:00.0 | Well, howdy there internet people? It's Bo again. So today we are going to talk about Texas, |
| 0:05.9 | Pakistan, Trump, and what apparently happened? Because if you don't know, the Attorney General of Texas |
| 0:15.3 | Paxton, he was impeached by the Republicans in the House, and then the Republicans |
| 0:20.1 | in the Senate acquitted him and he himself is a Republican. |
| 0:25.0 | Really weird. Really, really weird scenario. |
| 0:29.0 | There is now reporting that might explain a little bit of it. |

| 1:56.8 | opponent and they're just going to count on Texas Republicans to put party |
| 2:00.3 | over principal. It's probably a safe bet to be honest. But there's something |
| 2:07.5 | else that I don't think the senators there in the state house in Texas, I don't think they understand. |
| 2:20.0 | Trump is spreading throughout the Republican Party. It was all fun and games when it was just |
