President Trump’s MAGA Inc. super PAC is spending $10 million to boost Republican Texas Senate candidate Ken Paxton, marking its first major investment of the 2026 midterm cycle. Federal filings show $5 million will fund ads supporting Paxton and another $5 million will go toward ads attacking Democratic opponent James Talarico. The move comes as Paxton and Talarico remain locked in a closely watched Texas Senate race.
