On Tuesday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced that he will run against RINO Senator John Corbyn in 2026.
Paxton, a favorite among the MAGA grassroots, unveiled his campaign website on Tuesday afternoon before discussing his run with Fox News host Laura Ingraham.
“It’s definitely time for a change in Texas,” Paxton said during the interview.
“We have another great U.S. Senator, Ted Cruz, and it’s time we have another great senator that will actually stand up and fight for Republican values, fight for the values of the people of Texas and also support Donald Trump in the areas that he’s focused on in a very significant way,” he continued.
It’s official. I’m running for U.S. Senate to fight for President Trump’s agenda and take a sledgehammer to the D.C. establishment.

He later released a statement in which he said that he would prioritize the America First agenda.
“I’m running for U.S. Senate to fight for President Trump’s agenda and take a sledgehammer to the D.C. establishment,” Paxton said in the statement.
“John Cornyn has been in Washington for over two decades, and he has turned his back on President Trump and the America First agenda time after time.”
“I’m a battle-tested Attorney General and conservative warrior who’s secured major victories against the establishment, the corrupt Biden Administration, and woke corporations,” he continued.
”Now, I’m ready to take that same toughness to the U.S. Senate.”
As attorney general, Paxton repeatedly sued the Biden administration and led the way in exposing Democratic voter fraud and the disastrous nature of the previous administration’s policy of allowing millions of illegal aliens to enter the country through Texas.
While Paxton was taking on the Deep State and securing elections in Texas, John Cornyn was lecturing Texans on how they did not need Trump’s border wall.
On Wednesday night, the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee Chairman Senator Tim Scott sent out a letter endorsing John Cornyn.
Here is the statement released by Tim Scott:
WASHINGTON, D.C. — National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman Tim Scott released the following statement endorsing John Cornyn in the Texas U.S. Senate race:
“John Cornyn is a leader who delivers on President Trump’s agenda and for the people of Texas in the U.S. Senate. He’s a proven fighter, man of faith, and essential part of the Republican Senate Majority.”
Disgusting.
For the record, the NRSC is the same group that refused to fund Kari Lake, Ted Cruz, and Rick Scott in the last election.

The NRSC does not share your values. That much is clear.
