Rolling Stone reports it obtained recordings in which Paxton, described as the Republican Senate nominee, vents to lobbyists about the Texas GOP and campaign difficulties, including a remark about Abbott struggling. The Daily Signal reports that Republican state Rep. Jeff Leach wrote to Paxton, identified as attorney general, asking his office to investigate an organization sending mass texts. The texts reportedly encourage parents and students to get around state laws expanding parental rights in public schools.
