Aaron Reitz, a former staffer for three top Republican figures, jumped into the race for Texas attorney general on Thursday after resigning from his appointed position in the Trump administration.
“We are in a fight for the soul of Texas, our nation, and Western civilization itself,” Reitz said in a release announcing his run. “This is no time for half-measures or untested cowards. I’ve spent my entire career in the trenches with the toughest conservatives in America. I’ve taken enemy fire from the Left in the courtroom, at the negotiating table, and in the political arena — because if we lose Texas, we lose the Republic.”
