23. Does this mean he's been screwing yet another woman, or is this the 2023 affair come back?

Paxton had the affair with a woman who worked for local developer Nate Paul, whose relationship with one of Texas’ most powerful figures is central to the impeachment trial. Through five days of testimony, five of Paxton’s former aides have testified how Paxton allegedly pressured them in various ways to help Paul, who was under FBI investigation and once gave Paxton a $25,000 campaign contribution.

Was there bribery and corruption involved this time too, or was this just good old-fashioned lust?
