Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick is offering a behind-the-scenes look into the historic impeachment trial of Attorney General Ken Paxton.
Patrick, who presided over the trial, released the video over the weekend, which features commentary from himself as well as interview with senators who were involved in the trial.
Paxton was acquitted on all impeachment charges following a ten-day trial in the Texas Senate earlier this month. Since then, Patrick has criticized the Texas House for rushing through the process and not following proper procedure in their impeachment. To that end, he has called for a constitutional amendment to reform the impeachment process.
He has also requested an audit into the full cost of the impeachment.
