U.S. Senator John Cornyn urged challenger Ken Paxton to "brush up on" the Ten Commandments in the latest back-and-forth between the two Texas Republicans. "Might want to brush up on the Ten Commandments, Ken," Cornyn wrote on X, responding to Paxton’s call for school districts to begin displaying the religious text in classrooms.

A GOP senator slammed his primary opponent on Monday over the separation of church and state. Sen.
