MAGA Inc. confirmed a $10 million ad spending commitment to defend the once-safe Texas Senate seat now held by GOP nominee Ken Paxton against Democrat James Talarico.

AP News, NBC News, Fortune, and the Daily Independent all corroborate that MAGA Inc., the Trump-aligned super PAC, filed with the FEC to spend $10 million on TV and digital ads in the Texas Senate race. Fortune and the Daily Independent specifically describe the seat as 'once-safe' for Republicans, now competitive due to James Talarico's candidacy against Ken Paxton. NBC News confirms the filing and notes Trump's broader midterm spending plans. This is the first significant midterm ad spending by MAGA Inc., matching the claim precisely.
