There’s no denying it: TX Attorney General Ken Paxton dominated the attention economy leading up to the runoff. That buzz includes his laundry list of scandals, of course.

Tony Ortiz oversees the slender but stealthy operation that is Current Revolt. A fellow Substack pub, IKTR. They’re early and all over any scandal that bubbles up in Texas politics — where it really feels like new scandals pop up every damn day.
Tony’s slated to become my absolute go-to guy as my interest in this race skyrockets, even with our differing philosophies. I’m sure I’ll make quick work of annoying him with questions as Texas hurdles toward the general.
