AUSTIN, TEXAS: While former Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson hasn’t confirmed his next guest on social media yet, the guest has, and it is none other than Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.

At present, there is a historic trial underway that will decide whether or not Paxton will be impeached and possibly barred from ever running again as he faces 20 charges, as reported by Al Jazeera.

According to AP News, “Both sides were scheduled to present final arguments Friday before a jury of state senators begins deliberating whether Paxton should be removed from office.”

It was also reported, “It is unclear how quickly the Texas Senate could reach a verdict.”

For the unversed, Paxton who worked as the Attorney General of Texas since January 2015 was suspended on May 27, 2023, following his impeachment by the Texas House of Representatives.

Paxton has been under indictment since 2015 on state securities fraud charges relating to activities prior to taking office.
