The conservative movement just delivered a massive blow to the GOP establishment as Turning Point Action officially endorsed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in his primary challenge against longtime Senator John Cornyn—and President Trump may be ready to pile on.

This isn't just any endorsement, Patriots. Turning Point Action, led by conservative firebrand Charlie Kirk, commands serious grassroots power and represents the America First movement that's been systematically dismantling the old guard Republican establishment. Their backing of Paxton sends a crystal-clear message: Texas deserves a fighter, not a swamp creature.

Ken Paxton has proven himself as one of the most fearless conservative warriors in the country, taking on Big Tech, defending election integrity, and standing with President Trump when it mattered most. Compare that to Cornyn's track record of caving to Democrats and undermining the MAGA agenda at every turn.

Trump's Shadow Looms Large

The political earthquake gets even bigger with hints that President Trump himself is considering throwing his weight behind this race. Given Trump's complete dominance in Texas and his well-documented frustrations with establishment Republicans who failed to support him, a Trump endorsement could be the final nail in Cornyn's political coffin.

"Texas needs a Senator who will fight for America First policies, not compromise them away in backroom deals," a Turning Point spokesperson said, taking a clear shot at Cornyn's establishment tendencies.

This primary battle represents something much bigger than just one Senate seat—it's about whether the Republican Party belongs to We the People or to the consultant class and lobbyists who've been bleeding our movement dry for decades.

Cornyn has had his chance to prove he's MAGA, and he's failed spectacularly. From opposing Trump's agenda to playing footsie with Chuck Schumer, he's shown Texas conservatives exactly where his loyalties lie—and it's not with them.

With Turning Point's grassroots army now mobilizing and Trump potentially ready to deliver his verdict, one question remains: Is John Cornyn's establishment reign in Texas finally coming to an end?

Met Ken Paxton at a town hall last year and he actually listened to our concerns about border security. Never seen Cornyn at a single local event in my county.

This is exactly what we need! Real conservatives supporting real fighters instead of these career politicians who've lost touch with the base.

Cornyn's voting record speaks for itself - he's more interested in getting along with Democrats than fighting for conservative principles.

FINALLY! Cornyn has been nothing but a swamp creature pretending to be conservative. Ken Paxton has actually FOUGHT for Texas values and our Constitution.

Exactly! Paxton took on Big Tech and the election irregularities while Cornyn sat on his hands.

I've been saying this for years - Cornyn votes with the establishment every time it matters. Remember how he folded on the gun legislation? Ken Paxton has backbone.

That gun bill betrayal was the last straw for me with Cornyn. We need fighters, not folders.

Question: When is Cornyn's seat up for reelection? We need to get organized early if we're going to primary him successfully.

About time! The GOP establishment needs to go. If Trump gets involved, this could be the beginning of cleaning house across the entire party.

Trump's endorsement power is unmatched. Look what happened to Liz Cheney!
