Retired Republican County Judge Glen Whitley endorsed James Talarico for US Senate, saying:
“I’m ashamed that Ken Paxton is even on the ballot. He’s the most corrupt politician Texas has ever seen.”

Ken Paxton offered a sweetheart plea deal to a child molester who was initially sentenced to 25 years to life.

How can Texans trust Paxton when he’s letting dangerous predators walk free? #TXSen

Craig Beam: "What’s happening in Texas is: Republicans nominated a serial adulterer who was impeached and now appears on the take as his real estate buys become public. This is too much for Texans to hold their nose and vote for."

James Talarico: “I have a legislative record, and Ken Paxton has a criminal record. That is the difference in this campaign. Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America and he should be nowhere near the US Senate.”

"James Talarico said: 'Since taking office, Ken Paxton has now become a multimillionaire, while our pay has remained stagnant for years, for decades. He now owns 11 homes, while most Texans can’t afford one'.”

James Talarico: "Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was murdered by #ICE. His three sons called him 'El mundo entero' — the whole world. They watched as their whole world died in a video posted on Facebook. Lorenzo was our neighbor and fellow Texan. He deserves #justice." #Txsen

@europesays Don’t believe *anything* #DHS or #ICE #Gestapo say. Nada.

#Justice for the family of #LorenzoSalgadoAraujo.
#Texas is a #fascist state, so #TurnTexasBlue and support #JamesTalarico in the #TXsen #2026election.

Sawyer Hackett: "For the past 6 elections, Ken Paxton (who is running for the Senate) has committed voter fraud in Texas. For more than two years, Paxton has been registered to vote at an address where he doesn’t live — while leading the fake crusade against voter fraud."

Ken Paxton has spent his career trying to dismantle the Affordable Care Act.

If elected, he'll keep making healthcare more expensive for Texans. #TXSen

James Talarico: "Since taking office, Ken Paxton has become a multi-millionaire while our pay has stagnated. He owns 11 homes while most Texans can’t afford one. He trades favors with rich donors while blocking overtime pay for workers. Paxton doesn’t serve us — he serves himself."

"Texas Attorney General and GOP Senate nominee Ken Paxton was delivered a personal blow Monday after his former attorney issued him a scathing rebuke, as well as an endorsement of his Democratic opponent in the race":

Norm Ornstein: "The intense media focus on Graham Platner is understandable. He is an unknown in a crucial Senate race with a lot of baggage. Less understandable is the lack of coverage of Ken Paxton, whose sins are far worse. That it is 'old news' is no excuse. Most voters have no clue."

"Tejano star Bobby Pulido, a Democrat who is looking to flip back Texas' 15th Congressional District, is backing James Talarico even if he doesn't agree with everything the Democratic Senate nominee has said. 'Look, do I agree 100% with James Talarico? Newsflash: No, and it's okay,' Pulido said":

James Talarico said about Ken Paxton's verbal attacks:
"They're going to throw everything they've got at us.
They even called me a vegan. Those are fighting words."

James Talarico said: "Ken Paxton is intentionally clipping my cringy comments to distract from his career of corruption. Ken Paxton has a criminal record, I have a legislative record.":

Sarah Longwell: "The first clue that all these *conservatives* would rationalize voting for corrupt, amoral guy like Ken Paxton is they rationalized voting for a corrupt, amoral guy like Donald Trump."

"Some political figures are so thoroughly awash in scandal that writing about them feels redundant, like issuing a weather report during a hurricane. Ken Paxton, the Texas attorney general, is one such figure":

RE: https://mastodon.social/@RonSupportsYou/116652182250604615

Team Talarico: "Ken Paxton kept an alleged pedophile off the sex offender registry. Adam Hoffman was supposed to serve 25 years to life, but instead he served less than a month. As of this week, he’s now back on our streets because of Ken Paxton’s corruption. Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America, and it is costing Texans, it’s endangering our children, and it must end. The Epstein class has no place in Texas."

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton "apparently struck a sweetheart deal last month that allowed an alleged pedophile to walk free":

Richard Hanania: "Paxton winning the Republican runoff is a real 'they’re showing you who they are' moment. The guy is such a slimeball, there is no way he would have survived as Attorney General before MAGA came along, much less be in line for higher office. This is the purest case imaginable showing that these are simply bad people."

Bryan Dawson: "I don’t understand why people are so upset Ken Paxton is the Republican Texas Senate nominee. He meets all the GOP prerequisites:
✔️Fraud
✔️Adultery
✔️Hypocrisy
✔️Corruption
✔️Abuse of Power
✔️Lies and Disinformation
✔️Sexual Abuse and Pedophilia Enablement
✔️Trump Endorsement"
