About this listen
Ted Cruz made major Texas political waves over the past few days, headlining news by forcefully endorsing Congressman Chip Roy for Texas Attorney General. According to Fox News and multiple Texas outlets, Cruz praised Roy not just as his close friend and first chief of staff, but as someone he’s fought alongside for more than a decade, highlighting Roy’s “decades of service to Texas” and calling him a battle-tested “defender of the Constitution.” The endorsement comes as Ken Paxton, the current attorney general, has set his sights higher, opting to run for U.S. Senate in 2026 against John Cornyn. Roy kicked off his AG bid on social media, promising—emphatically—to “carry on the Texas legacy of liberty and self-determination” and Cruz’s support is likely to be a pivotal force in the primary.
Cruz’s public appearances have been characteristically high profile. Just days prior, he addressed the Round Rock Chamber of Commerce at the Kalahari Resort, speaking about The One Big Beautiful Bill, a sweeping piece of federal legislation he claims will deliver jobs and federal investment to Texas. Local press covered his optimism around these new opportunities, reinforcing his brand as a champion for the Lone Star State’s economy in Washington.
On the space and science front, Cruz was seen on Instagram posting about a visit to the Johnson Space Center in Houston. He joined Rep. Brian Babin and NASA officials for a behind-the-scenes tour, touting ongoing partnerships and Texas’s essential role in America’s space leadership. Engagement was significant, showing that his audience remains actively interested in his blend of policy and state pride.
Meanwhile, Cruz has kept up his digital footprint with fresh episodes of his podcast, Verdict with Ted Cruz—recent installments break down national headlines and offer his signature conservative analysis, a platform he’s used effectively to rally listeners and reinforce his positions on key issues.
Elsewhere in the headlines, Cruz’s name still pops up in broader national coverage and even political attack ads. A Maine Senate candidate recently invoked Cruz as a measuring stick for unflinching conservatism, noting that “at least Ted Cruz is honest about selling us out,” tying Cruz’s reputation to national perceptions of Republican orthodoxy and loyalty.
There have been no major new business endeavors or confirmed personal controversies. Speculation on social media remains mostly focused on his political endorsements and recurring critique of Biden administration policies, but nothing substantiated or out of the ordinary for the notoriously vocal senator.
