Summary
MAGA firebrand Ken Paxton, the attorney general of Texas, made a stunning offer to drop out of the Texas Senate primary race on Thursday. Paxton has been locked in a heated battle against incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) for several months, and the fight shows no chance of slowing down as the two men head for a runoff election in late May. On Thursday, Paxton said he would drop out of the race if Congress passed the SAVE America Act, a bill that President Donald Trump and several hardline Republicans support, The Washington Times reported. “No one has been more loyal to Donald Trump than me — fighting the stolen 2020 election, being in Mar-a-Lago when he announced his 2024 campaign, and standing with him in NY in the face of lawfare," Paxton wrote on social media. "For the good of our country and for the good of passing President Trump’s agenda, I am determined to help him get this done."The SAVE America Act seeks to make several major changes to how U.S. elections are administered, such as requiring people to have a passport or similar identity document to register to vote. Some election experts have said the bill would disenfranchise millions of voters, particularly women, because of the administrative burden it places on voters. So far, the bill has not made it out of the Senate, where it has faced stiff opposition from Democrats and Republicans alike. Read the entire report by clicking here.
