NEW AD: Have you seen these anti-Talarico attack ads?
Elon Musk paid for nearly all of them.
The world's first trillionaire knows if he drags the most corrupt politician in Texas across the finish line, Ken Paxton will owe him everything.
@ElonMusk: Texas is not for sale.
New Talarico ad running statewide:
"Ken Paxton says, I don't have his experience, and he's right.
"I've never been indicted for fraud. I've never been reported to the FBI for bribery. I've never been impeached by my own party, and I've never given a sweetheart deal to a pedophile.
"I have a different kind of experience. I've worked with both parties to cap the cost of insulin and pass the largest property tax cut in Texas history. I'm James Tallarico and I approve this message because we need a different kind of experience in Washington."
Texas was built by hope. By people who had no business believing — but believed anyway.
To every Texan who’s ever wondered if anyone in power is paying attention: We are taking our state back.
Because a little bit of hope is a dangerous thing.
Tonight, we’re kicking off our Clear Eyes, Full Hearts Tour with some special guests from the cast of Friday Night Lights.
We’ve come this far together. Now it’s time to leave it all on the field.

James Talarico is bringing Texans together to defeat corruption in Washington.
This November, I’m voting @JamesTalarico for U.S. Senate to bring down costs for working people.
It’s time to take our power back.
This temporary pause in destruction is welcome. But construction is likely to resume at any moment. We won't rest until the contracts are canceled, the workers are sent packing and legal protections are restored for the national and state parks, and across the Big Bend region.
I spent my day watching the place I love more than anything in the world be irreversibly destroyed for no reason.
There is not a single logical explanation for what DHS and its contractors are doing to Big Bend. It has become perfectly clear: they are using the destruction of this crown jewel national park as a vehicle to transfer billions of taxpayer dollars into the pockets of these politically connected contractors.
They are sacrificing our public lands so obscenely rich men who have never once set foot here can get even richer. And if they can do it here in Texas' wildest and most beloved national park, they will do it everywhere.
Governor Abbott, Senators Cruz and Cornyn: WHERE ARE YOU?!
It feels like we're stuck in an endless debate about what AI will mean for jobs and the economy. Turn on the news or go on social media, and you’ll see a lot of predictions: Are we headed for mass unemployment, a post-work age of abundance, or is it all just hype?
Caught in the middle of this debate are actual workers trying to figure out what this means for their livelihoods. As long as the debate stays alive, nobody can plan or take action for what's coming. So this week on Your Undivided Attention, economist @Mollykinder joins @tristanharris to follow the incentives of the AI race and show where they're actually taking us in the very near future.

Texans from both political parties are decrying the Trump Administration's construction of a border security project in Big Bend National Park. CNN's Ed Lavandera reports.
HAPPENING NOW: protestors brave the 100+ degree heat in Big Bend to fight DHS border barrier and road construction through the park. Bulldozers are tearing into the national park just a mile downstream. CNN is going live on site.
For 32 years, Republicans have controlled every statewide elected office in Texas.
When Ann Richards left the Governor’s mansion in January 1995, Texas was ranked among the top 10 states in education, 5th in reading, and 6th in math.
After three decades of one-party rule?
Texas has dropped to 41st in education overall, 34th in math, and 44th in reading.
Congress has let drug companies rip off Americans for decades.
Lobbyists, campaign cash, and a system that protects industry profits.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
