RINO Incumbent Texas Senator John Cornyn conceded the Texas GOP Senate primary runoff to his Trump-Endorsed opponent, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, on Tuesday, a little more than an hour after the polls closed across Texas.  

During his concession speech, Cornyn vowed to support Paxton in the general election against radical left Democrat James Talarico. “I’ve spent most of my time in the Senate building the Republican Party in Texas, and in the US Senate,” the anti-Trump RINO claimed, laughably. “And I’ve always supported the Republican ticket, and I intend to do so again this general election.”

Cornyn got embarrassingly smoked by Paxton.

Equally as embarrassing was Cornyn’s election night watch party. A few people showed up at the mostly empty building to watch him get destroyed.

WATCH:

Cornyn has been in the Senate since 2002, and he will finally retire in January.

“We’ve come up short in this primary runoff,” he told the few people at his watch party on Tuesday night.

WATCH:

Cornyn: Tonight, we’ve come, we’ve come up short in this primary runoff. You know, a few years ago I had a friend of mine say, you know what makes God laugh? He said, when we make plans. I’ve spent most of my time in the Senate building the Republican Party in Texas, and in the US Senate, and I’ve always supported the Republican ticket, and I intend to do so again this general election.

I’ve said throughout this race that I trust the voters of Texas, and they’ve made their decision, and I must respect it.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Paxton was declared the winner just one hour after polls closed, with only 50% of votes counted.

Immediately when early votes started coming in, Paxton was leading by 25%. When the election day vote reporting began, it was even more devastating for Cornyn.

President Trump boasted of the massive win with a graphic declaring victory on Truth Social.

The US deserved a personal alert from the Russians.

After the Ukrainian attack targeting a college dorm that killed 21 students, mostly young women, the Russians vowed ‘strategic’ attacks against decision-making centers in the capital, Kiev.

After Saturday (23), when Mosco unleashed 90 missiles and 600 drones against Kiev, we learned that the attack was just the beginning.

After the Foreign Ministry made a general warning for diplomatic missions to leave the city, and for citizens to avoid Military, Industrial, and Government Sites, we learned today (26) that a more specific warning was transmitted personally to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

“On May 25, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia Sergey Lavrov and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio had a telephone conversation.

On instructions from Russia’s President Vladimir Putin, Sergey Lavrov officially conveyed to the US Side that, in response to the Kiev regime’s continued terrorist attacks against civilians and civilian infrastructure on Russian territory, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are launching systematic and consistent strikes against facilities located in Kiev that are used for the needs of the Ukrainian military, as well as against the relevant decision-making centers.

Sergey Lavrov drew attention to the Russian Foreign Ministry’s statement of May 25, which recommended that the US, along with other countries with diplomatic missions in Kiev, ensure the evacuation of their diplomatic personnel and other citizens from the Ukrainian capital.

The Minister recalled the agreements on the Ukrainian conflict reached at the highest level at the proposal of the US in Anchorage in August 2025, and expressed regret that the aggressive efforts of the European elites and the Kiev regime are undermining these agreements, which had opened the way to a sustainable long-term settlement based on a balance of interests.

They exchanged assessments of diplomatic initiatives aimed at overcoming the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz and of the situation surrounding Cuba.

Sergey Lavrov and Marco Rubio reaffirmed their mutual commitment, notwithstanding known differences, to step up efforts to normalize the working conditions of the diplomatic missions of Russia and the US on each other’s territory.”

Bloomberg reported:

“Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov advised US Secretary of State Marco Rubio to evacuate US citizens and diplomats from Kiev as the Kremlin plans to continue heavy strikes on the Ukrainian capital, the Foreign Ministry in Moscow said.

Lavrov called his US counterpart at the request of President Vladimir Putin to tell him that Russia is launching systematic and consistent strikes against facilities in Kiev as well as relevant ‘decision-making centers’, according to the statement published late Monday.”

Marco Rubio:

Kyiv has been a dangerous place for a number of years. But the danger in all these wars, as they continue and go on, is that they always carry the threat of escalation — of spreading into something new.

President Trump appointed Pam Bondi to a new role on a White House AI panel.

Bondi will serve on the Presidential Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, according to Axios.

Axios also reported that Bondi was diagnosed with thyroid cancer shortly after she was fired from her job as Attorney General.

Bondi is undergoing treatment, Axios said.

Axios reported:

President Trump has appointed former Attorney General Pam Bondi to an advisory committee focused on AI policy, Axios has learned.

Driving the news: Bondi, whom Trump ousted as AG last month, will be on the Presidential Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST).

• The panel is chaired by former White House AI adviser David Sacks and White House science adviser Michael Kratsios.
• It also includes more than a dozen tech executives, including Nvidia co-founder Jensen Huang, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison.

What we’re hearing: Bondi will be charged with facilitating coordination between the government and the tech titans on the panel.

What they’re saying: “Pam has been an enormously valuable asset to the president’s team, and I’m thrilled for her and for all of us that she’s going to remain involved in confronting some of the most important issues the administration faces,” Vice President JD Vance said in a statement.

• Bondi will also serve in a newly established advisory role on national infrastructure.

Trump fired Bondi as US Attorney General last month before he delivered his Iran speech.

According to reports, Trump was not happy with Bondi’s leadership at the Department of Justice.

Todd Blanche is currently the Acting Attorney General.

Conservatives will be assassinated, beaten to death, and harassed, then told that it is a “both sides” problem.

The left will say that we need to “tone down the rhetoric” as though we are given a choice, allow them to destroy our country unopposed, or be beaten to death.

As The Gateway Pundit reported,

Kerry Sheron, the 69-year-old owner of the ‘Trump house’ in Southern California, has died after being brutally beaten by a Navy veteran.

Sheron, an Army veteran, was violently assaulted by 32-year-old Thomas Caleb Butler in an unprovoked attack on May 20 outside of Sheron’s home.

Kerry Sheron decorated his Escondido home with Trump banners and American flags.

The Trump-supporting Army veteran died Sunday night just days after he was hospitalized in critical condition.

Butler was previously charged with attempted murder, elder abuse, making criminal threats and battery. His charges will be upgraded after Sheron died from his injuries.

Deputy District Attorney Ross Garcia said Sheron was violently attacked by Butler.

Though no motive has yet been reported, we cannot ignore the legacy media narrative.

What was Kerry Sheron’s crime? Well, he flew the American flag and had Trump banners. According to the legacy media that means he was a racist, bigot, xenophobe, or Nazi.

Innocent people are dehumanized because it makes it easier to do inhumane things to them.

Political violence is a staple of the modern day left.

Even liberal PolitiFact reported,

In the Marquette poll, taken days after Kirk was killed, 15% of Democrats agreed with the statement that it is “justified for Americans today to resort to violence in order to achieve political goals.” That was higher than for independents (12%) and Republicans (6%).

The Reuters/Ipsos poll found a similar disparity when asking whether it is acceptable “for someone in my political party to commit violence to achieve a political goal.” Among Democrats, 7% said yes, more than twice the rate of Republicans. (A differently phrased question found similar results between the parties.)

This is not a “both sides” issue.

Democrat Rep. Al Green lost the Texas House District 18 primary runoff on Tuesday evening to 37-year-old Christian Menefee.

The 78-year-old Democrat was booted from his seat after more than two decades in Congress.

The Hill reported:

Rep. Christian Menefee (D-Texas) is projected to defeat Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) in a Democratic primary runoff for the Houston-based 18th Congressional District, according to Decision Desk HQ.

Menefee, the 37-old-lawmaker who won a special election to fill the remainder of the late Rep. Sylvester Turner’s (D-Texas) seat in January, is almost certain to win the general election this fall in a district that Cook Political Report rates as solidly Democratic.

Neither Menefee nor Green, the 78-year-old who’s served in the House for over two decades, pushed past the 50 percent support needed in the March 3 primary to avoid a runoff.

The two lawmakers were pitted against each other after Texas Republicans advanced a GOP-friendly map that created multiple new pickup opportunities for the party ahead of the midterms. The controversial plan kicked off a national back-and-forth over mid-decade redistricting, including a Democrat-friendly plan to effectively counter the Texas changes in California.

Earlier this year, Al Green was booted from President Trump’s State of the Union Address for holding up a banner that read, “Black People Aren’t Apes.”

This is the second consecutive year that Al Green has been kicked out of the State of the Union.

Al Green held up the banner as President Trump walked by.

Majority Whip Steve Scalise ripped the banner down before Al Green was thrown out.

Green was censured after his stunt.
