competing "tough guys" as their race for 2026 Texas Senator heats up. Hopefully they will self-destruct and Texas will finally elect a decent human being - it has been a long time.

Sen. Cornyn has basically done nothing for most his tenure in the Senate, and AG Paxton has proven beyond a reasonable doubt he is nothing but an asshole - over and over.

Surely Texas will wake at some point and stop pushing the totally negative image of Texas worldwide. I am tired of being embarrassed by my elected officials - we can and must do better.
