it’s cool even the most ardent paxton supporters concede that he is “morally flawed”
A friendly election-day word to the Bush/Rove/Cornyn RINO Republicans who’ve refuse to support Paxton, French, et al., and perhaps even plan to vote for James Talarico:
You will never have a seat at the political table in Texas again.
If Ken Paxton wins, your sandbagging won’t be forgotten. The party will shift right, putting the desires of normal native Texans over your globalist corporate agenda, over your cheap Mexican illegal and Indian H1-B workforces and California liberal-locust transplants. Your “natural conservative” demographics that somehow always vote D 3-to-1 will migrate elsewhere. You will not be invited to share governance in this conservative, Texan-first renaissance.
If Talarico and Hinojosa win, that sandbagging will be considered treason. The red-green socialist-Islamic alliance will thank you for delivering victory, then cause you to suffer the consequences of far-left policy just like the rest of us. The Democrats will not welcome you; the remnants of the Republican party will despise you.
You could’ve abided by the “party unity” you’ve demanded for two decades, as we’ve held our noses and voted for John Cornyn, the most useless US Senator in Texas history.
You did not.
Now it’s too late. There will be no Cornyn/Bush RINO resurgence either way. Instead of tolerating a morally flawed, politically conservative Paxton for six years, then running a more virtuous candidate in 2032, you will be forever in the wilderness.
We asked you to play ball. You went home in a tantrum instead. Now you don’t get to play the game anymore, ever.
Sorry.

i actually didn’t realize before this exact tweet it was something people born after ww2 dealt with. hand to god i’d have guessed we’d inoculated against it by 1955 or so, and no one has had it in generations

no one really catches nostalgia/loss/the outer limits of humanity quite as well as ishiguro, but there is also in a lot of his books a sense of the impending (or rather already completed) end of all things, and the collapse and contradictions of the postwar liberal order

this would’ve been a good opportunity to pick up some points with primary voters nervous about shapiro. bizarre choice to not be harsher here
Axios: Josh Shapiro’s reaction to Haley Stevens endorsing Rogers.
Doesn’t mention Stevens or El-Sayed by name
“I'm for all the Democrats running. We need to win back the Senate. I don't think we should be enabling Donald Trump with a vote for Mike Rogers, period.”

the only ironclad rule of politics in 2026 is that the worst democrat in america is better than the best republican. there are no exceptions, and anyone with a different philosophy should not be in decision-making positions in this party

donald trump is an existential threat to this country and no one who supports him can plausibly be preferable to someone who doesn’t
