My rep. Spoke at our college commencement in 23. Tremendous personal story. Military vet.

Only 3 are vying for the position. Rick Scot is the BEST option, by far. Rand Paul and Tucker Carlson just came out and endorsed Rick!

Is Cornyn good on delivering the pork?
My impression is yes. That makes him close to bulletproof electorally.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Cornyn just sent sen Hawley a load of campaign funds & Hawley has now endorsed Cornyn for sen Majority leader

Today on TV interview Cornyn was asked why he wanted to be sen majority leader & he said “because I want to Make America Great Again”

<>. Yes. Really did

“McC also denied funds to Cruz, who nevertheless won by a convincing margin.”

The guy who runs that Senate Republican Leadership Fund was on the Ruthless podcast this past week saying they knew Cruz would be successful so they spent their money elsewhere. IMO, the most questionable spend was on Hogan in MD.

We love Paxton in Texas! I’d love to see him primary Cornyn. The Texas GOP want to see Cornyn go!

I thought he was going to retire.

Cornyn retiring from the senate?? If so, no...why would he run for senate leader if that’s the case?

Paxton should be Trump’s pick for US Attorney General.

I am a die hard Texan conservative and have never cast a vote for John Cornyn. He did almost no campaigning last time he ran other than with his very big money buddies.

He has been running for the Senate top spot and could care less about Texas. Meantime Ted Cruz, a real Texan, has had to fight hard for his seat the last two elections. I doubled my Cruz donation this round after the Kentucky clown refused to give him financial support.

I do not understand why we can not get a genuine Texan to run against him.

Whoever Cornyn’s primary opponent is I support he/him, she/her, they/them, or it/its.

Cornyn is my Senator here in Texas. I assure 100% without doubt we do not want him as Senate Majority Leader. No, no way not ever. However, I held my nose and voted for him when he ran last. I would dearly like to see him primary-ed out for a real constitutional conservative.

Every time Big John Corny Cornball has a challenger, Midge McConnell opens up his globalist funded war chest and fires off a barrage of lies/smears against said challenger candidate.

Mitch "Bitch" McConnell did not use one damn cent of the many millions in the Senate re-election fund to help Ted Cruz in this election. He controls the purse strings on that fund. It was the most expensive election for a seat in the Senate in history.

Mitch "Bitch" McConnell wanted Ted Cruz to lose! He wanted him to lose because of personal animosity and not political beliefs. Mitch "Bitch" McConnell is a spiteful and vengeful old man and his time has past.

However, I must admit he was a master of the Senate when it came to getting conservative judges appointed, I do not know how he did it.

REP. RONNY JACKSON. Former White House physician and NOT a RINO. Now represents Wichita Falls. He had to defeat a well-funded incumbent RINO to get there. He has already indicated he is going to challenge Cornyn.

That would be excellent.

Yes, another good man to run against Cornyn.

"I’d say that, “Cornyn has that Chuck Schumer look about him.”

Sir, you have hit a new level of most deserved insults to Corny. I salute you.

With multiple Republican challengers, one would force Cornyn into a runoff in June 2026.
