Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced Tuesday that he’s running to unseat Senator John Cornyn in next year’s Republican primary, extending a lengthy feud between the two men.

“It’s definitely time for a change in Texas,” Paxton said on Fox News. He vowed to champion the policies of President Donald Trump and said Cornyn had not been supportive enough.
