tl;dr

Donald Trump’s super PAC, MAGA Inc., is spending $10 million to support Ken Paxton’s Texas Senate campaign, its first known general-election spending of the year. The spending comes as Paxton faces Democrat James Talarico in a competitive race, and their campaign representatives offered sharply different responses.
