Texas AG Ken Paxton has taken about 350 out-of-state trips with a state-funded security detail, including 25 to foreign countries.
During a 2017 Israel trip, organizers said Paxton insisted on his own security despite the government providing it for six other AGs. His detail cost $75,000.

Important story that offers a new, unreported look at Ken Paxton’s financial ties with the very type of business executives whose prosecutions he typically celebrates.

Trump’s Education Department has not made public all its civil rights investigations at schools and colleges.
So @propublica sued and obtained all the complaints and investigations. And now we are publishing them so you can search the cases too.

Here is my original story on Greg Abbott and Elon Musk's redacted emails.
This reporting came out last year, before I joined The @nytimes and was co-published with @propublica @texastribune: propublica.org/article/greg-… #txlege
Gov. Greg Abbott sued by opponent Gina Hinojosa over his communications with Elon Musk.
Last year, @lmcgaughy got redactions when she sought the records.
Rep. Hinojosa said she's entitled to them for #txlege purposes but Abbott won't release them.

Correction: The judge assigned to the GOP's lawsuit to silence the Hope Florida story is Heather Beato. DeSantis appointed her in 2020 when Joe Jacquot was his general counsel, screening judges. Jacquot now represents OpenAI in the case pending before Beato brought by Uthmeier's office, and represented Hope Florida witness Andrew Sheeran in the effort to keep the grand jury report sealed. politico.com/news/2026/06/23…

The Day the World Came to Town just made the New York Times Best Seller list at #15 for paperback nonfiction. It took more than 20 years - LOL - but still immensely honored and grateful to the people of Gander for sharing their inspirational story.

Was watching a Trump voters focus group in Florida where one participant told another about the Hope Florida scandal, and people in the group reacted with shock. "Why didn't that get more press and why isn’t anyone facing charges?!" was one reaction.
Why people should read news.

Last year, just 21% of students from an Austin charter school using an AI learning platform passed state-mandated tests.
Texas education leaders helped get the technology in front of public school leaders.
