I am honestly speechless to be named reporter of the year by Texas Managing Editors. In a difficult year for media nationwide, it’s a privilege to be able to continue to do this work, one I don’t take lightly. texastribune.org/2024/04/20/tex…

Remember all those press releases AG Ken Paxton put out during the Biden administration? We tracked down the outcome and real world impact of all 109 lawsuits Texas filed. Paxton’s relentless Biden-bashing has become his sword and shield as he runs for U.S. Senate

Just a little while ago, I called and congratulated @mayes_middleton for his victory in our race for the Republican nominee for Attorney General. I will have a full statement tomorrow. Onward.

Dallas state Sen. @NathanForTexas is the Democratic nominee for Texas attorney general, per AP. No call yet on the GOP side, but Johnson’s Senate colleague, Mayes Middleton, running ahead of Congressman Chip Roy

Trump adviser Alex Bruesewitz is heading to Texas tomorrow to campaign for Mayes Middleton in his AG runoff against Chip Roy, per a source familiar. Trump hasn’t endorsed, but some big Trump allies, including Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, are ramping up attacks on Roy as anti-MAGA.

Trump says Cornyn "is a good man, and I worked well with him, but he was not supportive of me when times were tough." "John was very late in backing me in what turned out to be a Historic Run for the Republican Nomination, and then, the Presidency." #txsen

BREAKING: Trump endorses KEN PAXTON in the U.S. Senate race in Texas “Ken is a true MAGA warrior who has ALWAYS delivered for Texas, and will continue to do so in the United States Senate”

@TexasTribune @chiproytx @mayes_middleton has given himself another $2.5 million for the runoff, campaign finance reports show. In a reversal from the primary, Roy has outraised Middleton during this period (even including Middleton’s self-funding) and is spending more on ads so far.

President Trump nominates @GregAbbott_TX deputy chief of staff Angela Colmenero as a judge for the Southern District of Texas. #txlege Colmenero served as interim attorney general while Ken Paxton was suspended during his impeachment trial.

Alito says his dog developed a mental illness and had to go to a specialty vet after moving to D.C. “There is something in the atmosphere of the beltway that drives people crazy and Zeus is a case study proof of this.” (That is the extent of the news from the speech.)

“@mayes_middleton has established a record as one of the most conservative senators in Texas history. He will make the Texas Office of the Attorney General the strongest and most impactful AG office in the nation. He will work collaboratively with President Trump and the U.S. Department of Justice to protect our Constitution.” Dan Patrick

Texas, a state that rejects gambling, is an outlier among states that are trying to take on prediction markets like Kalshi. @a_y_denrunnels reports that AG Ken Paxton twice rejected requests for Texas to join legal briefs to crack down on the markets. texastribune.org/2026/05/01/tex…

BREAKING: SCOTUS rules 6-3 in the long-awaited Voting Rights Act case, Callais. The court did not strike down Section 2, as some had predicted they would, but offered a narrower interpretation to make it harder to bring vote dilution claims More TK supremecourt.gov/opinions/25pdf…
