Episode description

It is the political story in Texas right now.  And talk about an October surprise: Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton accused of bribery, abuse of office and other potential crimes.  And the allegations are coming from fellow Republicans within the AG’s office.  In a statement, Paxton called them “rogue employees” and said he will not be resigning.  But is the damage already done, if not to the AG, then how about the party?  In this edition of Y’all-itics, the Jasons speak to Scott Braddock, the editor of Quorum Report, to take a deep dive into the allegations.  And then they talk to Matt Mackowiak and Konni Burton, about whether Paxton – and the party – can survive the serious allegations.
