The most corrupt politician in America just became the Republican nominee for the United States Senate.

They were all up against a rigged system. So, if they can do that, we can certainly do that against this stacked deck.

Texas is one of the hardest places to vote in the country as a result. It’s why we see such low voter turnout in our state compared to other states.

I will say that we already have a lot of voter suppression in Texas. It’s baked into our laws. I’ve fought fiercely against many of those laws when they were coming through the legislature.

We’re going to have to overcome that. We’re going to have to out-organize, out-work, out-hustle that voter suppression if we’re going to win.

Means you’re probably going to have to win by a little more than we would have to in a completely free and fair election.

I’ve been eating barbecue since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment.

In America, we have an affordability crisis because we have a corruption crisis.

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America.

We both still believe that these positions of public trust should be about serving our neighbors, not serving ourselves.

This campaign is really about taking on that corruption head-on.

Talarico says Paxton is "clipping my cringey comments to distract from his career of corruption."

But Ken Paxton is intentionally clipping my cringey comments to distract from his career of corruption.

I’m always going to stand up for Texans who are being picked on by the most powerful, most corrupt politicians in the country … There are some statements that I’ve made that I certainly regret.

I want to thank Senator John Cornyn for his years representing our state. We don't agree on everything, but we both still believe in public service. To Senator Cornyn's supporters: you have a place in our campaign.

Three years ago, Ken Paxton was impeached by his own party for using his public office to enrich himself and his donors.

We both still believe that these positions of public trust should be about serving our neighbors, not serving ourselves.

This campaign is really about taking on that corruption head-on.

Texans are drowning. We can't afford the basics, we can't afford groceries or gas or insurance or housing or childcare or prescription drugs, and Ken Paxton clearly has no solutions to offer us.

I think we're living in an era of corruption, and I don't just mean illegal activity... But I'm talking about corruption in the deeper sense, the rotting of our systems from the inside out.

This is the interview Donald Trump didn't want you to see. His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert. Trump is worried we're about to flip Texas.

We will not win this race in November with the same old politics of division.

The real fight in this country is not left versus right. It’s top versus bottom.

It should have a welcome mat out front and a lock on the door.

The administration was playing politics and was trying to control what a late-night show puts on air, something that’s never been done before.
