When you’re applying for the job of U.S. Senator, you should show up for the job interview. Ken Paxton showed up in London on the 4th of July to party with the British. He showed up in Dubai to party with fugitives. He’ll show up anywhere but a debate stage in Texas.

Ken Paxton voted against a bill making animal abusers pay to treat the animals they hurt. Paxton went on to protect a research lab that tortured 400 puppies.

BREAKING: Our grassroots campaign raised $64 million in Q3 — the most of any Senate campaign in American history. All without taking a dime from corporate PACs. Our people-powered movement is going to change this broken, corrupt political system.

Undecided Texas voter: I was really impressed with Talarico this evening. I found a more balanced politician. I was surprised at how centrist he was on many of the issues, and I think that has brought me to a deeper understanding. I like that he invited us to sit down and challenge him.

Q: Talarico said he would stand up to his own party. Do you believe him? Texas Voter: I do. I think Talarico is kind of the bright light... He seems to me to be someone with integrity, and integrity in politics has been on the decline.

James Talarico: I’ve rolled out a plan to crack down on these giant data center companies. We’ve got to force them to pay for their own energy instead of jacking up our utility bills. We got to force them to recycle their water so they are not exacerbating the water crisis here in Texas.

I’m tired of being divided into teams. Do you want a safe neighborhood? Do you want a good job with good benefits? Do you want a high quality, well funded public school? So do I. We’re far more the same than we are different. As one team, we’re unstoppable.

Q: Did Talarico’s answer satisfy you? Did you decide who you’re going to vote for? Undecided Texas voter: When he actually mentioned that Ken Paxton is actually for data centers… That did kind of sway me a lot. I think Talarico probably will get my vote after hearing that.

James Talarico: We should suspend the federal gas tax and the federal diesel tax, which would drop the price of gas by 18 cents a gallon tomorrow and save those who use diesel about $200 a year. It’s not enough, but it could provide immediate relief now as we bring this war in Iran to a close.

Ken Paxton is selling off Texas — our land, our water, our communities. Data centers bankroll Paxton, they get tax breaks, and you get stuck with the bill. We can’t afford Ken Paxton’s corruption. (This ad was made by humans — not AI.)
