Houston - Two weeks ago, he was fighting for his political existence...and now Ken Paxton is very seriously saber-rattling at the senior United States Senator from the Lone Star state.

During his extended interview with Tucker Carlson - Paxton made this claim, " To me he has been in Washington too long he's been there 14 years or so and I can't think of a single thing he's accomplished for our state or even our country."

Throwing down the gauntlet....pretty clearly there. I'm sure Cornyn supporters have a laundry list of the Senator's achievements.

But in this atmosphere - I’m afraid to say ..people hear what they want to hear.

Cornyn believes historic gun, school safety law will save lives
