The political earthquake Texas conservatives have been waiting for just got a major boost. Turning Point Action, the grassroots juggernaut that helped propel President Trump back to the White House, has officially endorsed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in his uphill battle against longtime establishment incumbent Senator John Cornyn.

This isn't just another endorsement—it's a declaration of war against the Republican establishment that has sold out conservative voters for decades. Paxton, who has fearlessly fought the Deep State and stood with Trump through every witch hunt, now has the backing of one of America's most influential conservative organizations.

"Ken Paxton has proven time and again that he's willing to fight for the America First agenda, not the wishes of Washington lobbyists," the endorsement statement read. "While John Cornyn was playing politics as usual, Paxton was taking on Big Tech, defending our elections, and securing our border."

The timing couldn't be more perfect. Sources close to President Trump suggest he's seriously considering throwing his own endorsement behind Paxton, which would essentially end Cornyn's career. Remember, this is the same John Cornyn who repeatedly undermined Trump during his first term and has been nothing more than a reliable vote for the establishment wing of the GOP.

"Texas deserves a senator who fights for Texans, not one who cuts deals with Chuck Schumer behind closed doors."

Paxton's record speaks for itself: he's filed over 100 lawsuits against the Biden regime, led the charge against election irregularities, and has been on the front lines of every major conservative legal battle. Meanwhile, Cornyn has been busy making nice with Democrats and undermining conservative priorities.

With Turning Point's massive ground game and fundraising apparatus now backing Paxton, plus the possibility of Trump's golden endorsement, we could be witnessing the beginning of the end for another RINO senator.

The question isn't whether conservatives will rally behind Paxton—it's whether Texas Republicans are finally ready to drain their own swamp.

FINALLY! Ken Paxton has been fighting the good fight for Texas while Cornyn has been playing footsie with the establishment. This is exactly the kind of primary challenge we need.

Couldn't agree more. Paxton actually delivers results instead of just campaign promises.

Paxton has actually sued the federal government to protect Texas. What has Cornyn done besides give speeches?

Love this move by Turning Point. We need more organizations willing to primary these RINOs instead of just complaining about them.

Met Ken Paxton at a town hall last year and the man knows his stuff. Unlike Cornyn who sends form letters when you contact his office, Paxton actually listens to constituents.

That's the difference between a real conservative and an establishment hack.

About time someone called out Cornyn for what he is. The man votes with Democrats half the time and thinks we don't notice.

Wait, is this for the 2026 Senate race? I thought Cornyn wasn't up until then.

I've been saying for years that Cornyn needs to go. He's been in D.C. so long he's forgotten who sent him there. Time for fresh blood who will actually fight.

If Trump gets behind Paxton, this race is over before it starts. Cornyn's been coasting on name recognition for too long.

Trump's endorsement would be huge here. Texas Republicans are ready for real leadership.
