Senator John Cornyn easily spent $130,00,000+ to get absolutely blown out in his reelection bid
One of the most humiliating losses in Texas political history.

Congratulations to @KenPaxtonTX on winning the Republican nomination for United States Senate. A steadfast conservative fighter for Texas, he has led the charge on securing the border, defending our constitutional freedoms, and advancing the conservative principles that have made Texas the strongest and most prosperous state in the nation.
With so much at stake for our state and our country, Republicans are united and ready for the fight ahead. Looking forward to supporting Ken Paxton as we work to protect the values and freedoms that make Texas exceptional.

@ChrisCillizza Get out of the beltway. I live here in Tarrant County. No way he was going to win here

@chris_komatsu Tex. Elec. Code 61.003, 85.036.
You need to read the actual law.

This is quite literally illegal to do at a voting location in Texas.

WOW! Convinced a former Cornyn supporter to vote for Ken Paxton. Being at the polls on Election Day does make a difference. 📍Collin County, TX

@chris_komatsu Dudes worked more elections that you have. And I have worked my fair share. It’s why you work the polls. Not to just stand there like a turd like most people do.

@ReneeNal So explain to me why it isn’t in Europe (and when I say Europe we all mean Germany) best interest to have done something in the last 4 years? What was it they sent Ukraine at the beginning of the war? Helmets?
English
@MillerforKeller I don't disagree. I am saying that stopping Russia is in our best interest.

We draw down as Russia builds up.
Chaos in Europe will reach its peak when the majority of US presence is gone

The United States has informed European allies it plans to significantly cut its military contributions to NATO, urging them to move quickly to close the gap, according to the German media outlet Der Spiegel. Alexander Velez-Green, a senior advisor and envoy for U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, briefed allies on plans during a confidential meeting last week at the NATO Headquarters in Brussels, with European officials reported to have been taken aback by the scale of the planned drawdown by the Trump Administration. As part of the drawdown, the U.S. Armed Forces plans to commit much fewer assets to NATO’s pool of readily available forces in the case of a conflict, significantly reducing the number of deployable drones, fighter jets, aerial refueling aircraft, strategic bomber, as well as warships, submarines and other naval assets, with a roughly one-third cut in just its fighter-aircraft contribution to forces in Europe.

@ReneeNal And yet Europe is the one sending $12 billion in 2026 to Putin for nat gas, which helps fund his war with Ukraine. But my tax dollars should go to protect them?
English
@MillerforKeller We will have to agree to disagree on this one, friend. If Russia was not actively trying to tear down America, I might have a different opinion.
English
@ReneeNal And why wasn’t the EU concerned 20 years ago? Or 10? Or 4? Because they knew the Americans would bail them out yet again.
Time for tough love.
English
@MillerforKeller I don't doubt you and I am not saying they shouldn't step up. But I do know that Russia has a very strong interest in America abandoning the alliance. We would be playing right into their hands.
English
@ReneeNal Playing right into their hands?
Q1 2026: EU imported ~6.9 bcm of Russian gas (pipeline + LNG), up ~16% year-on-year — the highest quarterly level since the 2022 invasion. Russian LNG hit record monthly highs (e.g., ~2.46 bcm in March).

@ReneeNal @onetallorfour We have given blood and treasure to a their continent since 1917 and they look down their noses as the uncouth Americans.
And how much natural gas does their continent still get from Russia? I was there when Reagan told Kohl importing gas was not in their best interest. 1981
English
@ReneeNal @onetallorfour I was in Germany in 1978-81. K Town. 250,000 American troops and dependents. Little America.
My mom was a NATO COS during the Balkans stationed at Heidelberg
I know of what I speak when I say the time for Europe to step up, not in 5 years, but now, is past by two generations.

Just leaving Bay Area to Sacramento to Tahoe, really tough to find a station under $6/Gallon…. Just the facts, those are the facts

Just filled my tank. In Texas, gas is $3.99 a gallon. Hey Gavin—the problem isn’t Chevron, it’s California’s stupid energy policies….

In September of 2012 I bought AMD stock at $3.61 a share
'They might not go bankrupt' was my investment thesis
The stock went down 40% over the next month and I doubled down at $2.05/sh
14 years later I am holding a 200 bagger

@MattMackowiak @EvilMopacATX Yeah. On your candidate. You would think a spurned ex wife would be glad to endorce her ex’s opponent. Cornyn is that bad

Today, we remember George Floyd, who was murdered by a former Minneapolis police officer six years ago. That moment changed our city forever.

After more than 40 years in public office, Cornyn is betting experience and stability still resonate with Texas Republicans. dallasnews.com/news/politics/…

It’s not exactly true. One Senator will have seniority and can get stuff done like he has bringing in billions for the border. The other will spend all of his time being a philanderer and probably getting his staff in trouble. But he will every now and then show up to say something red meat.
Chris@chriswithans
Cornyn is nothing like Tillis or Cassidy. He’ll probably lose tomorrow but if he wins, it’ll be because he’s handled himself much better than any other primaried senator or Congressman. I personally never understood the hate he gets. That said, no one is entitled to a seat so it’s not like Paxton was breaking the law by running in a primary. And “nice guy” Hunt ran in the primary too! Massie had to go. Cassidy was way out of step with his state. But if Cornyn does win, it’s just a couple of Senate votes difference between him and Paxton over this coming term.
