Soros-backed group, Democrats pour money into Texas ahead of 2026

A group backed by Democratic mega donor George Soros is pouring money into Texas ahead of next year’s midterms in hopes of flipping the red state blue.

The Texas Majority PAC and the Texas Democratic Party launched an eight-figure campaign dubbed “Blue Texas” on Monday aimed at electing Democrats up and down the ballot in the Lone Star State next year.

Later this month, the effort will hold kickoff rallies in Harris, Dallas, Travis, Bexar, Tarrant, Denton, Collin, Brazoria, Williamson, Hidalgo, Cameron, and El Paso Counties. Next month, Blue Texas will launch the “Turn Texas Blue” tour, which will make stops in over 24 cities including Amarillo, Lubbock, Midland/Odessa, Galveston, Paris, and Port Arthur.

Soros funds the Texas Majority PAC.

The launch comes as incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) fights for his political life in a closely contested primary against Attorney General Ken Paxton (R ). Most polls show Paxton leading Cornyn ahead of the February primary. However, other polls show Democrats within striking distance of Paxton in a general election.

We took care of those lowlifes the last time they tried to lynch Paxton.

Soros pours no such thing. That is taxpayer money, USAID money, funding everything evil.

How about a 98% USAID tax....tax it right back, every time it goes out, 98% comes right back.

Politicians know it as kickback. Very familiar.

How would you know? In this case the donor declared his intent.

I haven’t seen it in awhile but one tv ad says “John Cornyn....votes with Donald Trump 99% of the time!”

OK, first of all...as President, Donald Trump doesn’t vote. Secondly, notorious Bushbot Cornyn will vote with Republicans up until he’s needed to sabotage them. So percentage agreement of “voting with” are irrelevant.

A great state of Texas needs more consistent conservatives than Cruz and Cornyn. I mean, they’re meh. But Texas could do so much better.

Money is speech. That’s the thorny bit.
