Texas is being run by Christian billionaires and millionaires like Middleton.
Senator Money Mayes Middleton, currently representing the Bay Area, is using his personal wealth to win the Republican nomination for Texas Attorney General. Middleton claims to be a man of Christian faith yet speaks with the jawbone of an ass(hole). He might want to read that book he carries around about it being easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God.
Since Jan 2025 Middleton has raised $15,182,681 for his primary race. Of that total 90%, $13,732,000 came from his own pocket. This isn’t the first time Middleton has used his personal wealth to win a seat in Texas Politics. In fact it is his third. He spent over $2 Million of his own money to win the Republican nomination for Texas House District 23. That race should have cost no more than $500,000 if it was competitive (it wasn’t). Then when Senator Larry Taylor retired, Middleton spent another $2 Million to win the Senate seat. Middleton has plenty of money to throw around to those willing to be like the image of Middleton, a white wing Christian nationalist.
