In a stunning break from party lines, former Texas Supreme Court Chief Justice Thomas Phillips—a longtime Republican—is officially backing Democrat James Talarico for the US Senate. Phillips tells CNN's Erin Burnett that Ken Paxton's relentless scandals "will embarrass Texas in ways our state simply cannot afford," calling the decision to cross party lines for a moderate like Talarico a "pretty easy choice."
Also, Democratic strategist Paul Begala and Republican strategist Kevin Madden break down the tight Senate race in Texas and react to Phillips siding with Talarico.

Meet the people’s needs first<br>Not just<br>Gas only<br>Support every day people’s wage<br>Lower food cost by appealing to food companies etc…. Then trumps corruption and others etc… no more billionaires and corporations money in politics
Yeah, I don’t know who this guy is, but I do know this Democrats are sexualizing children their tax and spending their policies lead to disaster and ruin, and no one wants to live in a state run by Democrats
He says the tone of both campaigns has been negative. That may be, but Talarico knows what "When they go low, we go high" gets us. It gets us 2016! Talarico is a nice guy, but he also knows there is a time to go on the offense. That time is now, when your opponent is Ken Paxton, backed by Musk and Trump.
If Ken Paxton was not already the top law enforcement official in Texas and applied for a peace officer position, he would have so many red flags, he wouldn't pass any background check.😂😂😂
“The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that, because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them.” ― Turkish Proverbs
Flávio Bolsonaro, the Brazilian politician Trump is shielding in the United States, is under investigation over allegations involving nearly $1 billion stolen from Brazil’s social security system and money laundering linked to organized crime. He fled Brazil because he knows the investigations are closing in and a conviction could be looming. Funny how certain politicians suddenly need a safe haven when it’s time to face accountability. And that safe haven is usually the United States.
I agree, leave impeachment alone . Focus on affordability. End the war, create job, regulate AI and data center. Abolish gerrymandering. Congress should take their power back. Strengthen rule of law. Hold corrupt cabinet member accountable
<b>I'm a longtime Democrat voter as were my parents but this isn't the party anymore of Pres. JFK or even Bill Clinton! Open borders letting Millions in and then using our taxpayer $s to pay for their food, rent and even their freaking health care which really PISSES ME OFF as we citizens have to pay for our own healthcare! Plus, they voted AGAINST the Working Familes Tax Cuts Act and even expanding the Child Tax Credit! Now the party is being taken over by the Socualists and Chuck Schumer & Co. are campaigning for them which is ANTI-AMERICAN!</b>
repairing the damage to middle east refineries from trumpstiens war of choice (to cover the epstien files), isnt just turning a valve on. Some estimates say decades to repair, once it stops.
Trump's "bull in the china shop" campaigning reminds me of the movie The Producers, where every effort is made to make the worst play ever, yet the audience loves it.
ACCOUNTABILITY OF LIFE - 2026$$??
<br>All are accountable to the judgment of time
<br>And when we die without truth our sadness never ends.
<br>By the deepest longing of our heart, mind, and soul
<br>We must serve our country, family, and friends.
<br>
<br>Most the time as a politician stands up
<br>Along with the truth, their brain sits down.
<br>Promising anything and everything to anyone
<br>While posing to the public, to be on common ground.
<br>
<br>Politicians who wish to be revered by history
<br>Must earn their fame by living the truth.
<br>Any who continue to mislead and deceive
<br>Must be shunned by the voter at the booth.
<br>
<br>By accountability we endure time’s hardships
<br>Our protection to promote a moral life.
<br>We receive our blessings by deeds of demeanor
<br>As commitment leads us through sadness and strife.
<br>
<br>All through history up to today
<br>The chronicle of life is accountability.
<br>Evil is a beast feasting on souls
<br>Shaming man with greed, hate, war, and disability.

Fun Fact: America is the world's largest exporter of diesel fuel. When Hormuz closed the price of diesel doubled worldwide, dramatically increasing the profits from exporting American diesel fuel. The oil companies get huge profits, the voters's fuel budgets are doubled.
If Paxton loses then there's a good chance republicans will lose the senate so you might as well go ahead and get ready for Trump to throw a fit and lose his shit if Paxton loses. 🤦🏻♂️🙄
I too am a 'staunch Texas Republican' and there is no way in Hell or Midland I would EVER vote for a mealy-mouthed, degenerate Democratic Socialist like James Talarico. Secure the Blessings of Liberty, Vote Republican.
Trump Rule #14. Fake it till you make it!<br>Trump Rule #2. It’s easier to fool the Christians than it is to convince the Christians they’ve been fooled!<br>Trump Rule #4. Always accuse others of something he’s been guilty of all along.
When the Dems takes back the house and senate they MUST impeach, convict, remove, arrest and imprison all of the corrupt foot soldiers for the convicted felon first including the...<br> D-epartment <br>O-f <br>J-ust uck-f ups.
I'm glad he said its an easy choice, which leads to the conclusion his decision was made some time ago. paxton is toxic to democracy and lawful public service. He treats public office as a vehicle strictly for his own benefit at the expense of Texan's. BTW the republican candidate running for paxton's old AG position is just as bad potentially. mays middleton has already stated his intentions to treat democrats as the enemy and that the Texas State AG's job is to play party politics and should be political in its actions. He says there is no separation of church and state, and I'm sure he plans to target schools with a bias approach. Vote for Nathan Johnson (D) for Texas AG.
If Texas doesn't see the value of Talarico, then I hope the Dems put him in the 2028 primaries and see how he does. He would be a welcomed face to many Independents.
Voodoo Economics <br>100 year history of massive tax cuts for the rich and the drastic effects they have on the working class, to the point of economic collapse. <br>Coolidge, Reagan, Bush, Trump, Trump.<br><br>1925 - massive tax cuts for the rich.<br>1929 - hyperinflation and economic collapse (the Great Depression).<br>1981 - massive tax cuts for the rich.<br>1986 - hyperinflation, two recessions.<br>2003 - massive tax cuts for the rich.<br>2008 - hyperinflation and economic collapse (the Great Recession).<br>2017 - massive tax cuts for the rich.<br>2022 - hyperinflation.<br>2025 - Trump’s Trade War.<br>2025 - hyperinflation.<br>2025 - massive tax cuts for the rich.<br>2029 - hyperinflation.<br>And now we’re at the precipice of another global economic collapse.<br><br>Back before Reagan, a single income could support an entire family, four massive tax cuts for the rich later, and they now own more homes, farms and businesses than the working class, and thanks to Citizens United, they now own our politicians too! Trickle Down Economics has only one final outcome, the rich end up owning everything!
The economy is only one reason....We have rampant corruption, ICE murdering citizens, and immigrants in broad day light, FLOCK mass surveillance, subverting local city council with brides, and secret NDAs to install more data enters than the rest of the nation together, sexual trafficking of minors for the wealthy, a renewed war on cannabis, new wars on friends and enemies, a President spewing Russian propaganda, while his kids openly take bribes from foreign enemies, corporations openly bribing the president, Texas Governor Abbott sending the Texas guard to back up ICE in other states on Texas tax payers money, Abbott refusing to extradite MAGA criminals, etc, etc....and that's just what we can see...they've got ALL the power, and hide so much behind a wall of NDAs, and secrecy. Vote out the corrupted police state. This Texas Republican is voting straight Democrat, because we're screwed if we don't get rid of openly evil, and corrupt leaders.
I love actually seeing a real Republican.. They are a dying breed.. Thank you sir for choosing America over a Party. That's a real American move. Bravo! I'm the same way. I'm a Democrat who voted for a couple Republicans in local positions and an Independent as well as several Democrats on the national. I care less what your party is, just be a good human being who is qualified for the position and love your country more than party and you can easily earn my vote.
Paxton is a serial adulterer who was charged with securities fraud and impeached by his fellow Republicans. He's also quite open about the fact that he's increased his net worth by tens of millions of dollars since taking office. Anyone who votes for Paxton in Texas is proving that character and integrity mean nothing to them, and that partisanship means everything.
Remember when the old school liberal, the moderate Democrat supported our nation, its borders and sovereignty, and the Constitution? remember a long time ago when these Americans had a soul? <br>Is there a hatred of Trump so visceral that they are willing to elect raging communists who only know how to destroy? Is that where we are?

Trump's already warming up his lies if he loses the midterms. Everyone, please vote and encourage others to do the same, because what we do now matters most to everyone else that doesn't exist yet! 🇺🇸🌎🕊️🙏🏼💙🌊🗳️💙🌊🗳️💙
Every time I pay $80 for gas and $400 for groceries, I'm extremely grateful to dRump for the tariffs, the ballroom, the war with Iran and the new helipad. I hope you are grateful too. Make sure you show dRump and his GOP your appreciation on November 3rd.
Thanks to the Corrupt Supreme Court, we have a system that has Legalized Bribery by calling it "Campaign Contributions,” and allowing both Domestic and Foreign Actors to Buy Elections and America. This is not Democracy. This is an Ultra Corrupt System based on Bribery and Pay to Play.
The Democrats had control of the house, senate and the whitehouse from 2021-2023<br>Did you get your free healthcare? No? Gun control? No? Lower crime? No? Border protection? No? What makes you think things will change?
President Donald Trump has shit upon almost every nation in the world. He has imposed tariffs, broken trade and security agreements, he has bullied our nation, Greenland, Cuba and Europe. He has LIED, deceived, misled, tricked, fooled and duped about deficits, the auto industry, steel and aluminum, rare earth minerals, the agricultural and dairy businesses. He doesn't NEED ANYTHING FROM CANADA and the rest of the world. He doesn't deserve the HELP, RESPECT or SUPPORT of any country or business. For this, the UNITED STATES will pay the price. GOD BLESS THEM - they deserve it!!! The US does not need our cars, wood, potash, power, oil (4,000,000 barrels a day), steel, aluminum, our military or OUR SUPPORT. You can not trust him or his judgement as a leader!!! Donnie made his bed, he should lie in it!!!
<br>
<br>The United States relies on Canada for roughly 80% to 90% of its total potash fertilizer imports, representing over 11 to 12 million metric tons and billions of dollars annually. The total potash going to the US is about fifteen million tonnes. Belarus produced 6 million metric tons of potash in 2025 according to the USGS, and most is under contract to European nations. Belarus could never supply the potash the US needs, let alone where are you going to store 500 shiploads and transport it to the heartland, where it is needed. The cost of shipping, storage, rail transport and distribution far exceeds the cost of Canadian potash.
<br>
<br>So let Canada shut down the water in the Columbia River, stop the flow from four major dams: Mica, Hugh Keenleyside, and Duncan in British Columbia, and California and Oregon goes in darkness. Canada Controls the River That Makes 40% of America's Hydropower, provides $8 billion in irrigated crops, 42 million tons of cargo — and three trillion gallons of guaranteed flood protection every year.
<br>
<br>Shut down the electricity from Ontario and Quebec and 1,500,000 homes and businesses in New York go into darkness. Cut off the 4,000,000 barrels of oil going south every day and it will be the 1964 OIL CRISIS all over again. Then cut off the Potash and your corn farmers are screwed. PS - China wants the potash. Then let Stelantis sell their plant in Brampton to BYD - the Chinese and Koreans are ready for that. Steel and Aluminum is now going to Europe.
<br>
<br>Then let Canada really hurt the US. Eight American states sit on the Great Lakes — America's "fourth coast," home to its steel mills, grain elevators and factories. Every ship on that coast has exactly one door to the ocean: the St. Lawrence Seaway, a 2,300-mile staircase of 15 locks. Thirteen of them are Canadian. The two American locks sit in the middle — unreachable if Canada's close.
<br>
<br>In October 2023, 360 Canadian workers walked off the job in a wage dispute and proved the point: 13 locks went dark for 8 days, over 100 ships were trapped — including the USS Marinette, the US Navy's newest combat ship, stuck in Lake Erie — at a cost of up to $100 million a day. In this video: how geography handed Canada the keys in 1959, the $12 billion in cargo that climbs the staircase every year, the honest two-way dependencies (including America's own two locks), and why the least discussed piece of infrastructure in this trade war might be the most important one. What should it be a heavy levy on American ships or like the Straight of Hormuz a complete blockade to American vessels.
<br>
<br>THE BOTTOM LINE - If the United States would quit buying Canadian Crude Oil the United States would have a 38 Billion Dollar Trade Surplus over Canada. BUY YOUR OIL FROM VENEZUALA, your POTASH FROM BELARUS and America will be fine. As for the 241 to 298% Tariffs on Dairy, it only applies when you reach a quota (NO DUMPING CHEAP OR EXCESSIVE DAIRY IN OUR MARKET). The US has never reached those quotas and NEVER had those tariffs apply.
<br>
<br>If you are a MAGA American - I don't mind watching you GO TO HELL !!!! America will never become GREAT AGAIN being a BULLY and chasing away business. The forty trillion dollar debt will never go away and your tax dollars will be going to INTEREST ONLY PAYMENTS as infrastructure, education, health care, military DECLINE. TRUMP is driving you into being a third world country.
