Episode Details

Texas Republicans are finally uniting behind Attorney General Ken Paxton after his hard-fought Senate runoff win over incumbent John Cornyn, shifting focus to defeating Democrat James Talarico in the general election. While big GOP names stayed neutral in the primary, Cruz and Abbott now publicly endorse Paxton and warn of Talarico’s threat to Texas values. Surprisingly, polls show Talarico neck-and-neck with Paxton—and independents favor him significantly—raising questions about Paxton’s electability amid his ethical baggage. Talarico, meanwhile, is positioning himself as a unifier against a broken system, while the GOP rallies to keep Texas red.
