Well now, this is interesting:
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced Tuesday he is running to unseat Sen. John Cornyn in next year’s midterm elections.
“We have a great U.S. Senator, Ted Cruz, and it’s time we have another great senator that will actually stand up for Republican values, fight for the values of the people of Texas, and also support Donald Trump in the areas he’s focused on, in a very significant way,” Paxton told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham. “That’s what I plan on doing.”
Hoo boy: if the Lefties think that Ted Cruz is a bad boy, wait till Paxton gets to the Senate. (For those unfamiliar with Texas senators, John Cornyn is the Lone Star equivalent of South Carolina’s Lindsey Graham — occasionally on the side of the angels, but more than often not.) Predictably, Cornyn’s staff has gone negative, which alone should disqualify the asshole. But despite that:
Internal polls show Paxton leading by more than 20 percentage points over Cornyn.
Can’t wait for the primary later this year so I can do my civic duty and get the ever-unreliable Cornyn outta there.
My only regret is that Texas will be losing a kick-ass Attorney General, and maybe also (if she goes to D.C. with him) a fine state senator in his wife Angie, who represents District 8 in far northeast Texas.
I often wondered how Cornyn got elected from Texas. Then again Texas also sent us the racist Jazzy Crockett.
Good luck Paxton.
Didn’t Paxton have some tussle with the Texas state legislature over something or other?
Paxton had the uniparty (collection of dirty republicans and democrats) try to persecute him for some bullshit a little while ago
I think he beat the charges
Now he is gonna run and probably win the election based on polling so far.
trash in-trash out
They’re all liars and thieves and I have no use for any of them.
I’ve been saying for decades that the R party needs to clean house, but at this point I’m pretty sure both parties are trash. Ghost is right, liars and thieves, some are just better at hiding it.
As for the other disappointments that Texas has sent to DC, that’s a result of many decades of activist judges gerrymandering districts for us to make sure certain people had better representation while other people (conservative whites) just had to suck it.
Age and term limits need to be set and enforced.
Cornyn is an anti gun fucking scumbag.
I wonder if someone has dirt on that cock sucker.
He’d fit right in in Massachusetts. Slippery fuck.
He reminds me a lot of a politician in Massachusetts named John Velis. Velis is a veteran who claims to support the 2nd amendment yet he voted for anti gun shit all the time then did a news interview where he said “if you don’t like it take it to court”
Vote these cock suckers out!!!

Maybe a relative?
“The mine flail was invented by two people independently from each other. South African Captain Abraham du Toit was the first to come up with the idea, and was sent to Britain to develop it further. Later in the war, another South African officer who did not know about du Toit’s secret work had the same idea.”
