The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: The Hearst owned and operated Houston Chronicle has published an editorial that invites, before there is any evidence to evaluate, riots and unrest of the type we've seen in Leftwing cities across the nation over the past many years. The editorial is irresponsible from the headline down. Additionally, it continues the odd narrative that illegal aliens are somehow exempt from following our laws and simple common sense (unless of course the editors, before seeing any evidence, believe it impossible that the man who was shot did anything wrong.)Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.From the campaign stack: Jasmine Crockett on Talarico Win in Primary: It Was a Racist Race' James Talarico outraise Ken Paxton by 3-1 margin in US Senate race Ted Cruz warns Talarico has “real chance” to beat Paxton – of course he does and I talk much about what worries me about today's Texas GOP leadership. Soros Continues To Pump Money Into Efforts To Turn Texas Blue Here's what you get with Soros-backed politicians: ‘My life mattered': Travis deputy says sentence for teen who nearly shot her was too lenient.

Texas Attorney General and Republican candidate for Senate, Ken Paxton's marriage fell apart two years ago when his wife accused him of having an affair and she moved out of the house they shared. According to new reporting from the Texas Tribune and ProPublica, the address of that house is still on Paxton's voting registration even though he hasn't lived there for years and does not appear to be going back. Zach Despart, Texas Tribune investigative reporter, talks with Jen Psaki about why Paxton may have committed voter fraud, and why that would be an especially rich irony. Graham Platner's time as Maine Democrats' candidate for Senate appears to be about to end, with another brutal round of reports of sexual impropriety. But Platner has been underperforming as a candidate anyway, so replacing him may be to Democrats' advantage if they can pick a good candidate. But how do they choose a new candidate in the short time they have, and straddle the requirements of mainstream Democratic politics while incorporating the renegade, grassroots spirit that has become a hallmark for a party in transition. Jim Messina, campaign manager for former President Barack Obama, and Amy Walter, publisher and editor-in-chief of the Cook Political Report with Amy Walter, talk with Jen Psaki about how the Democratic Party should navigate a potential Platner exit. Rep. Debbie Dingell joins to discuss the contentious Democratic primary in Michigan.   To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

D'Rinda Randall has been elected the new head of the Republican Party of Texas and David Covey has been elected as vice chairman.

The Texas Republican Party faces today a seeming no-brainer choice: Will it stand with the man at the top of the GOP ticket this fall, Governor Greg Abbott, and 1.9 million voters in its base in opposing sharia-supremacism?  Or, will it legitimize among its convention delegates operatives of the Muslim Brotherhood and its pitbull front, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) – which Mr. Abbott has properly designated as terrorist organizations. One of them, Dr. Tarek Hussein, actually founded CAIR's Texas chapter and authored a paper about how to infiltrate political parties. The obvious purpose of doing so is to advance the Brotherhood's stated “mission” of “destroying Western civilization from within with the help of unbelievers.” Banning sharia is a winning issue for Republican and other patriots – unless the Texas GOP submits to it, alienating them and further empowering and emboldening the jihadists.  This is Frank Gaffney.

This week on G3 Weekly, Scott Aniol takes four of the week's biggest headlines and holds them up to the light of Scripture.4 STORIES THIS WEEK:1. When the Rainbow Recedes: Corporate America's Pride retreat is a market calculation, not a moral awakening — and Christians shouldn't mistake one for the other.2. The Question Pro-Lifers Won't Ask: IVF destroys more embryos every year than surgical abortion. The Texas GOP is being forced to reckon with it. So should the church.3. "We Did Not Tell the Truth": Bethel, Bolz, and what every church must learn before the next cover-up.4. They Stormed the Sanctuary: Thirty charged for entering a Minnesota church mid-worship. The hostility is coming — is your family prepared?

In a two-part discussion this week, on the first In Progress of Pride 2026, we note how Texas GOP types have targeted our LGBTQ+ friends this election year - from ripping out crosswalks, to suing Big Gay Swim Days, to forcing Texas Children's Hospital into a ridiculous "detransitioning" clinic. And, we note that Scott Pelley - the Texas native and veteran CBS News journalist fired for standing up to his new MAGA bosses - is and shall always be a complete badass. Thank you Scott for your courage and character.Thanks for listening! Learn more about Progress Texas and how you can support our ongoing work at https://progresstexas.org/.

David Waldman has more crazy to tell us about. Greg Dworkin has discovered more polls to share. We shall reconvene forthwith. 4.5% of the Texas voting population has spoken, electing deplorable Ken Paxton over deplorable wannabee John Cornyn. That' sa lot of deplorables, enough for a Trump win, maybe enough fora Republican loss. At least that's the dream. Today, the good news is that James Talarico has shaken up the race and gave life to the Democratic cause across the state. Texas Gop money will pour into convincing their voters that they are capable of holding their noses tight enough to vote for Paxton. More importantly, with John Cornyn gone, so is the money and clout that he brought to the state as a ranking Senator. Seniority used to be the path to money and clout in government. Those days seem long gone. To commemorate their departure, Donald K. Trump hopes to pass some illegal tender to the geeks and carnies out in the back yard building a stage for the Milli, or Vanilli concert. Nicki Minaj, Kid Rock and Ted Nugent are too big for this gig… oops, Milli Vanilli ends up locating a threshold of embarrassment. Trump has no threshold. Trump threatens to attack Oman, intervened to score another $640 million for Junior, and $13.1 million for his pool boy. He wants to jail his rape victim, E. Jean Carroll.

A former Dallas Housing Authority supervisor was sentenced to two years in prison for embezzling nearly $500,000 in public funds. In other news, Texas voters didn't just settle a bruising Senate runoff Tuesday. Confrontational politics wins. Trump's sway on the Texas GOP remains powerful. The MAGA movement is strong in Texas among others; a massive swath of land historically used for sheep and cattle ranching is set to become Texas' second-largest state park; nd when the throngs descend on the various host cities of this summer's FIFA World Cup matches, health officials will be monitoring waste water for potential infectious disease outbreaks.

A heated political commentary out of Texas claims a dramatic power shift inside the Republican Party following a major primary outcome. Supporters describe it as a rejection of establishment influence, while critics call the rhetoric extreme and historically loaded. The episode focuses on allegations involving long-standing GOP factions, political operatives, and figures such as Ken Paxton, alongside references to former President George W. Bush and broader accusations about party ideology, globalism, and immigration policy.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION Ken Paxton's landslide victory over John Cornyn is being called the final blow to the Bush-era globalist machine inside the GOP. Tara breaks down the political earthquake in Texas, the collapse of the establishment donor network, and why the fight is now shifting directly to South Carolina. Plus: explosive allegations involving Democrat activist groups, Chinese Communist Party influence campaigns, AI data center sabotage, and the growing battle over election integrity and open primaries. FULL SHOW SUMMARY A political earthquake rocked Texas as Ken Paxton delivered a crushing defeat to longtime establishment Republican John Cornyn despite more than $100 million being poured into the race by GOP donor networks aligned with the Bush-era political machine. Tara argues this wasn't simply a primary loss — it was the symbolic collapse of the globalist wing of the Republican Party that originated in Texas during the Bush governorship years. The show traces the roots of modern globalism, open-border politics, and international trade governance back to the Bush family's influence in Texas politics. Tara claims Paxton became the biggest threat to that political infrastructure after aggressively targeting NGOs accused of facilitating illegal immigration and voter registration efforts in Texas. The discussion expands into South Carolina politics, where Tara argues the same establishment political network still dominates through figures like Lindsey Graham, Henry McMaster, and legislative leadership. The show heavily criticizes South Carolina Republicans who opposed redistricting changes and calls for conservative primary challenges. The episode also dives into claims of coordination between Democrat-aligned activist groups and entities connected to the Chinese Communist Party. Tara highlights reports involving opposition campaigns against AI data centers and references commentary from investor Kevin O'Leary regarding alleged online influence operations tied to Chinese interests and progressive activist organizations. Additional segments cover: The SAVE Act and election integrity battles Open primaries and Republican establishment politics Allegations surrounding activist funding networks Communist rhetoric in New York housing policy debates The future of the Republican Party after the Texas political shift KEY TALKING POINTS Ken Paxton defeats John Cornyn in a political landslide GOP establishment reportedly spent over $100 million defending Cornyn Tara argues the “Bush machine” lost its remaining grip on Texas Debate over globalism, immigration, and GOP identity South Carolina Republican infighting intensifies Criticism of open primaries and establishment conservatives Discussion of SAVE Act voter ID legislation Allegations involving Democrat activist networks and CCP influence AI infrastructure and data center political battles Calls for major conservative primary challenges in South Carolina SEO KEYWORDS Ken Paxton, John Cornyn, Texas GOP, Bush machine, globalism, Lindsey Graham, South Carolina politics, SAVE Act, voter ID, Donald Trump, Republican primary, Karl Rove, CCP influence, Kevin O'Leary, Democrat Party, Texas election, open borders, MAGA movement, GOP establishment, election integrity

Ken Paxton handily beat longtime incumbent John Cornyn in the Republican runoff for Senate. So, what’s that mean come November? We’re also unpacking big primary runoff races from across the state on both sides of the aisle. What do the results tell us about what Texas voters are prioritizing? And did you vote in the […] The post Ken Paxton's Senate runoff win reshapes Texas GOP landscape appeared first on KUT & KUTX Studios -- Podcasts.

Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about Republican momentum heading into the midterm elections and President Trump’s focus on national security amid rising tensions with Iran. He points to Ken Paxton’s decisive Texas GOP runoff victory over John Cornyn as evidence of a political shift within the Republican Party and argues that GOP voters are rallying behind candidates aligned with Trump’s agenda. Brett also discusses Trump’s comments dismissing concerns about the midterms in favor of preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear capabilities, framing the stance as a sign of strong leadership. Later Brett turned his attention to Texas State Representative James Talarico and what he described as a campaign focused more on cultural flashpoints than everyday voter concerns. Brett criticized Talarico’s comments defending transgender children, arguing that political debates over sports and gender identity are being framed in emotional terms instead of practical policy discussions. He also challenged Talarico’s interpretation of biblical teachings on abortion, saying the Democratic hopeful was attempting to reshape traditional arguments in order to appeal to progressive voters ahead of a possible Senate run in Texas.

EPISODE SUMMARY A political showdown is erupting inside the Republican Party as President Trump backs Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton over longtime Senator John Cornyn in one of the most expensive and consequential GOP primaries in years. Tara and Lee break down why this race is about far more than Texas — it's a direct battle between the America First movement and the remaining Bush-era Republican establishment. The conversation dives into the SAVE Act fight, Senate leadership tensions, border security, voter integrity debates, and why Trump reportedly changed course after Senate Republicans refused to move key election legislation. The episode also shifts to South Carolina, where outrage is growing among conservatives over accusations that Republican leaders are helping protect a Democrat congressional seat that critics say was created through unconstitutional racial gerrymandering. From Texas to South Carolina, this episode examines the growing divide inside the GOP and the political consequences heading into 2026. FEATURED STORIES Trump backs Ken Paxton in high-stakes Texas Senate primary John Cornyn faces backlash from America First conservatives SAVE Act battle deepens divisions inside Senate Republicans MAGA movement challenges Bush-era GOP leadership structure South Carolina redistricting fight sparks conservative outrage Questions intensify over Republican cooperation with Democrats Supreme Court rulings fuel renewed district map controversy Growing national attention on internal Republican Party fractures KEY TAKEAWAYS The Texas Senate race is shaping up as a defining battle between establishment Republicans and the America First movement. Trump's endorsement decision signals growing frustration with Senate GOP leadership. Election integrity legislation remains a major dividing line within the Republican Party. South Carolina's congressional map fight is becoming a national conservative flashpoint. Grassroots Republican voters are increasingly scrutinizing party leadership at the state and federal level.

Is the Trump endorsement all Ken Paxton needs to defeat a Republican in office more than 20 years? We'll have that answer as early as tonight when we get the results of the Texas GOP primary pitting incumbent Senator John Cornyn against the Trump-backed opponent, Attorney General Ken Paxton.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Donald Trump just endorsed MAGA nutjob Ken Paxton in the Texas GOP primary for Senate, potentially killing off establishment incumbent Senator John Cornyn. As GOP Senators absorbed this news, reporters described them as “visibly dismayed” and “stone-faced.” Senator Lisa Murkowski openly declared that Trump has now put the seat “in jeopardy,” asking: “How does that help strengthen the president's hand when we lose a state like Texas?” Translation: Trump has screwed himself and his party in a big way. This might cost them the seat, and at a minimum it makes it much harder to hold. So is Texas actually gettable for Democrats? We talked to Democratic operative Sawyer Hackett, a veteran of Texas races. He explains why Paxton is much weaker than Cornyn, why a perfect storm of conditions in the state could bring about the unthinkable, what Democrat James Talarico's path to victory looks like, and what could still go wrong for Democrats.
