The Republican attorney general was acquitted in an impeachment trial in September, after the House accused him of corruption and abuse of office.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton plans to file criminal complaints against the House lawmakers who led his impeachment, alleging they doxxed him when they released documents that included his home address last week.
The news was first reported by the Daily Caller and local outlets including the Texas Tribune. Paxton reportedly plans to file criminal complaints in each of the House impeachment manager’s eight home counties, citing a new anti-doxxing law that makes it illegal to release or leak personal information with the intent to harm them.
Paxon’s office did not return a request for comment, though he shared the Daily Caller’s tweet about the complaints on his X social media feed Monday.
I live in the same county, I pay property taxes. My address is public record and on the public website, is his not? Is that doxxing really?
This is the best summary I could come up with:

Last week, House impeachment managers released a large trove of documents they said had not been brought up in trial for reasons that included time constraints and procedural decisions.
“The impeachment managers clearly have a desire to threaten me with harm when they released this information last week,” Paxton said in a statement to the media, noting his family had received violent threats.

The GOP civil war is everywhere. They can’t even govern Texas. Imagine if they get the presidency back.
Is there such thing as a conservative lawmaker that understands law?
