The art of folding a winning hand
Jim Acosta @ @Acosta • 28m
Democrats had tons of energy coming out of last week's elections. Tonight's deal with GOP will outrage progressives and divide the party once again. For what? The possibility there will be a vote on Obamacare subsidies down the road?
Which Trump will likely hold hostage?
Huh?

Authoritarianism can only succeed when democracy fails to deliver for working people. Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people. We need a new democracy and a new party system which can represent working people.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection. Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

As many as 100 survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and other victims of sexual abuse are expected to attend a rally Wednesday in Washington, D.C. as a bipartisan Congressional effort gains steam to force the U.S. Department of Justice to make public its controversial files on the disgraced sex trafficker.

I not sure that publicly fighting with your own Attorney General on the state Supreme Court docket is a winning litigation strategy but hey what do I know
To Supreme Court clerk from Ken Paxton office: precedent is clear that a "quo warranto" proceeding "can only be brought by the attorney general, a county attorney, or a district attorney." In re Dallas County, 697
S.W.3d 142, 152 (Tex. 2024) (orig. proceeding) (citation omitted). Further, the
Constitution charges "the Attorney General" with the obligation "to represent the
State in all suits and pleas in the Supreme Court of the State in which the State may be a party." Tex. Const. art. IV, § 22. A writ of quo warranto, moreover, "is the exclusive legal remedy afforded to the public by which it may protect itself against the usurpation or unlawful occupancy of a public office by an illegal occupancy." Hamman v. Hayes, 391 S.W.2d 73, 74 (Tex. App.—Beaumont 1965, writ ref'd)
(citations omitted) (emphasis added).
The Speaker of the House has issued arrest warrants for truant members of the
Texas House who have absconded to other states in order to compel their attendance at the ongoing special session. See In re Abbott, 628 S.W.3d 288, 292-98 (Tex. 2021) (orig. proceeding). The Speaker has set a Friday, August 8 deadline for those absent members to return to the Capitol. If those absent members do not comply with the
Speaker's deadline, the Attorney General intends to pursue all available judicial remedies, including those available through a quo warranto proceeding to declare the truant Legislators' offices vacant on grounds of abandonment. As a result, the Court
Post Office Box 12548, Austin, Texas 78711-2548 • (512) 463-2100 • www.texasattorneygeneral.gov
Page 2
should not dismiss the Governor's petition until the Speaker's Friday deadline
passes and the Attorney General can be heard on these weighty issues.Response from Abbott: I write briefly to clarify the Court's jurisdiction in this matter. The petition invoking this Court's original jurisdiction filed today by the Governor does not proceed under Chapter 66 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code, the provisions being discussed in In re Dallas County,
697 S.W.3d 142 (Tex. 2024). As this Court is aware, it has adjudicated on the merits writs of quo warranto in proceedings brought under this Court's original jurisdiction-independent of its appellate jurisdiction, the only head of jurisdiction that could possibly lie from proceedings under Chapter 66. See, e.g., State ex rel. Angelini v. Hardberger, 932
S.W.2d 489 (Tex. 1996); TEX. R. APP. PROC. 52.1.
The Governor is not seeking to proceed under Chapter 66. As noted in the filing submitted today, the Governor seeks relief under Article V, Section 3 of the Texas Constitution and Section 22.002(a) of the Texas Government Code-as clearly expressed in the petition. See Emergency Pet. 1. As explained in the petition, at least 500 years of common law and more recent Texas Supreme Court precedent make clear that quo warranto proceedings may be initiated by relators other than the Attorney General. Id. at 13-15. As the Relator in this case, Governor Abbott continues to respectively request that this Court rule before House Democrats deny the Legislature a quorum for the third time.

To sum it up: Greg Abbott filed a bad court thingy with the TX Supreme Court. Ken Paxton, Abbott’s AG, told the court that Abbott got the law wrong—but said not to dismiss the case bc he plans to file his own bad court thingy. Abbott replied: Paxton’s wrong, let me do the bad court thingy plz??
