Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s former top law enforcement official endorsed Democratic state Rep. James Talarico on Tuesday in the state’s competitive U.S. Senate race.
David Maxwell, a former Texas Ranger decorated for his decades of service, reported Paxton to the FBI in 2020 for alleged abuse of office to criminally help one of his donors — an investigation that formed the basis of Paxton’s 2023 House impeachment. Paxton was acquitted by the state Senate, and the Justice Department declined to pursue federal charges.
