In Texas, there are zero limits on what individuals or PACs can donate to political campaigns—and everyday voters are paying the price. Money in politics has spiraled out of control. Conservative commentators love using George Soros as a scapegoat, accusing him of paying for every protest and filling every auditorium. But while they fixate on him, they conveniently ignore the network of billionaires and megadonors actually bankrolling the Texas GOP.
Here are a few of the key players pulling the strings:
- Trillionaire Elon Musk. As reported yesterday Musk has donated almost $10 Million in the past two years. He will be funding candidates all across the state especially in Harris County. Maybe that is why the candidates running for office in Harris County have not raised much money.
- Billionaire Texas Comptroller Don Huffines. Huffines has just been appointed by Governor Abbott to be the Texas Comptroller. Huffines has used his wealth to win his Senate seat and will continue in his race for Comptroller. So far has used $20 Million of his own money for his race.
- Billionaire Timothy Dunn. Has donated $850,000 to various white wing organizations in just 2016 alone. Since 2012 he has donated over $21 Million.
- Billionaire Farris Wilks donated over $1.5 Million in 2025. He has donated over $14 Million since 2008.
- Millionaire State Senator Money Mayes Middleton. Middleton is spending over $20 Million of his own money to become the Attorney General of Texas. He has spent millions of his own money in his race for the Texas House and Texas Senate.
- Millionaires David and Richard Weekley. Both have donated over $34 Million to various individuals and PACs especially to Texans for Lawsuit Reform, an organization that protects companies from being held accountable in court.
- Millionaire Alex Fairly. Alex is a new comer to GOP politics donating over $21 Million since 2019, that is in a 7 year span. This includes a one time donation of $20 Million to the Texas Republican Leadership Fund.
So, what’s in your wallet? LOL. Probably nothing.
