Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

I was Ken Paxton's offensive coordinator, as he likes to call me.

Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

He was our head coach of our lawfare operations against the left and against the Biden administration.

Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

And I was the offensive coordinator.

Paxton and I have been in the trenches for years.

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

We have fought many battles together.

Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

We have sustained many battle scars together.

Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

And so everybody in Texas is thrilled about Ken running for the Senate and representing Texas in the United States Senate.

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

But a question that a lot

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

of grassroots conservatives are worried about is, gosh, who's going to succeed Ken Paxton?

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

And that question has once and for all been answered.

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

Ken Paxton has said that Aaron Reitz, me, his former deputy, is the only candidate in this race

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

to succeed him, to keep his foot on the gas, to keep this high horsepower vehicle continuing to fight and take action against the left.

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

I'm proud to have his endorsement.

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

I'm proud that now Texans can finally rest easy and know that they've got a true MAGA attorney who has fought the fights that they care about to succeed Ken Paxton as AG.

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

Yeah, look, it's a great question.

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

And figuring out whether it made sense for me to stay at main justice, what we'll call sort of HQ, where all the biggest brass was, or to go out into the front lines to redeploy back to Texas and to wage war against the left there.

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

And so, look, that's why when Ken announced for Senate in early April,

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

I didn't announce until mid-June because it took me and my colleagues and my superiors, both in the West Wing and at Maine Justice, to figure out how important is this to get a fully vetted MAGA attorney to...

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

succeed Ken Paxton.

Bannon`s War Room
Episode 4730: Filling Paxton's Seat With A Fully Vetted MAGA Attorney; The Fight Against Newsom

Look, the Texas Attorney General leads 600 politically appointed attorneys to wage war on all of the various fronts that we care about.
