I am so proud of the @TexasHDC and the work that they’ve done. Their willingness to put themselves on the line to highlight the current assault on our democracy has set an example for what all of us have to do.

Talarico: "Elon Musk wants our land…He wants our tax dollars. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas. But on November 3rd, we're going to deliver a crystal-clear message to the world's first trillionaire: Texas is not for sale."

This election is a battle between the powers that be and the powers that ought to be.  The powers that be have chosen their candidate. They’ve already bought and paid for Ken Paxton. I want to be a senator for every Texan who can’t afford one.

FOX is at Talarico’s A&M rally this evening in College Station. The campaign estimates there are appx. 1,900 people in attendance. Students tell me this is a pretty conservative part of TX and college. They say if you’re voting Dem, it’s not something you’d advertise. #TXSEN

Ken Paxton canceled his events in El Paso and Tyler. James Talarico has held 16 events in just the last week. Ken Paxton is hiding from the people he's running to represent. James Talarico is meeting every Texan he can find.

Talarico: "Ken Paxton is canceling rallies because nobody is showing up. He can't recruit volunteers, so he uses AI bots. He doesn't have any grassroots donors, so he's relying on the richest man in the world to fund his campaign."

BREAKING: Texas Republicans announce they will “Pass on Paxton”: “I truly believe that he is the most corrupt politician Texas has ever seen.” “To send Ken Paxton to the United States Senate is adding another gator to the swamp.” “James Talarico is by far — without a doubt — the best person in the race for the US Senate.”

On the day a sitting president landed in Lubbock, Texas, for the first time in 34 years, people waited for hours in lines stretching for blocks in this reliably red city. But the crowd wasn't waiting for President Trump. They were waiting for Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico. nbcnews.com/politics/2026-el…
