Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is now going nuclear to ensure the Texas fleebaggers never return to power.
Paxton announced Friday afternoon that he has filed a “historic” lawsuit with the Texas Supreme Court to declare all 13 seats vacant.
“The rogue Democrat legislators who fled the state have abandoned their duties, leaving their seats vacant,” Paxton said in a statement. “These cowards deliberately sabotaged the constitutional process and violated the oath they swore to uphold.”
“Their out-of-state rebellion cannot go unchecked, and the business of Texas must go on,” he added. “I have asked the Texas Supreme Court to declare what has been clear from the beginning: that the runaway members have officially vacated their offices in the Texas House.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Paxton announced on Tuesday that he would file to vacate Democrat seats if they did not return to vote by the end of the week.
“I will seek judicial orders declaring that runaway Democrats who fail to appear by the Speaker’s deadline have vacated their office,” Paxton said in a statement.
Paxton’s announcement one day after he launched an investigation into the Texas Majority PAC (TMP), a George Soros-funded PAC, for illegally funding the runaway Texas Democrats’ activities.
The group was founded by former staffers of radical former gubernatorial and Senate candidate Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke.
Paxton added that TMP reportedly played a “coordinating role” in helping with illegal fundraising and potentially bribing Texas House members.
This news also comes just two days after Paxton launched a criminal investigation into O’Rourke’s own PAC for unlawfully funding runaway Democrats.
It was reported this week that O’Rourke’s PAC funded the private plane that transported the Texas Democrat lawmakers to Illinois so they could block GOP redistricting efforts.
