Clear eyes, full hearts, spicy ketchup.

Every Texas bar has that one guy. He’s loud. He’s obnoxious. He makes all the women feel uncomfortable. He adds his drink to your tab when you’re not looking. That’s Ken Paxton — and I don’t know about y’all, but I’m done picking up his tab.

You wanna know why billionaire mega-donors are spending $200 million against me? Because I don’t take their corporate PAC money — and I never will. I don’t work for them. I work for you.

Ken Paxton keeps dodging debates. So I called his cell to invite him to a debate on Fox News. He didn’t pick up.

Elon Musk is trying to buy this Senate seat in Texas. He wants our land, he wants our water, and he wants his own personal U.S. senator. He’s trying to buy Texas. But on November 3rd, we’ll deliver a clear message to the world’s first trillionaire: Texas is not for sale.

When Jesus healed the sick, he didn’t ask for a deductible. When he fed the hungry, he didn’t price gouge for a profit. When the Hebrew prophets saw corruption, they spoke truth to power. When I take on this corrupt system, I’m doing it on biblical grounds.

Tonight, we’re kicking off our Clear Eyes, Full Hearts Tour with some special guests from the cast of Friday Night Lights. We’ve come this far together. Now it’s time to leave it all on the field. Join us:

That’s a lot of Talafreakos in one room.

A 5-year-old Texan just spent the first day of school in an ICE detention center. ICE kidnapped Liam Tadeo on his way to a soccer game with his dad. Liam should be in kindergarten. Instead, our government has thrown him in a prison camp hundreds of miles from home.

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.

This is the interview Trump’s FCC doesn’t want you to see. We’re not just going up against the most corrupt politician in Texas. We’re going up against this entire corrupt system.

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.

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 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.)

Thanks for letting a politician crash your party ACL Festival!

We're taking back Texas, one DJ set at a time.

ICE shot Wilber Perez in the back. Now, Wilber can’t move the left side of his body. How does paralyzing a DoorDash driver make anyone more safe?

An Amazon worker died in one of Amazon's warehouses. As he lay on the floor dying, management told the other workers: "Just turn around and don't look. Get back to work." That was a human being. A child of God. Sacrificed on the altar of corporate greed.

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America. He embodies the broken system we’re running against. It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton

We’ve never been closer to taking our power back — but we’re still the underdogs in this fight. We’re going up against a rigged system and a lot of money. We need all hands on deck. Sign up to knock on doors today:
