Talarico, Fox News, And Most Recently, Donald Trump, All Agree That Talarico And Paxton Should Debate — Why Do You Think That Ken Paxton Still Has Not Yet Accepted A Debate Invitation, Texans? Why Your Thoughts?

Just last night as of writing this (morning of October 9, 2026), Trump is the most recent one to call on Ken Paxton to debate Talarico: https://www.texastribune.org/2026/10/08/texas-senate-james-talarico-flu-ken-paxton-debate-trump/

The calls for a debate have been going on for quite a while — Trump is just the most recent one to do so.

Why do you think that Ken Paxton has still not yet accepted any of these calls? Why your thoughts, Texans?

What do you make of the Pentagon’s plan to livestream Nidal Hasan’s firing-squad execution at Fort Hood? Does holding it at the site of the 2009 attack—and broadcasting it—feel like accountability, political theater, or something else entirely? Curious how people in Texas are reacting.

Canadian heading to Texas-DURING MIDTERM ELECTION

I have to be in Texas, around Dallas, for work during the week of your mid-term elections. How concerned should I be, and what are some things I should and shouldn't do during this potentially unstable time? I am certainly ignorant on all things Texas, except last night's football game, and probably being influenced by media. Just tell me I'm crazy and I have nothing to worry about. Our Canadian elections couldn't be more boring.

EDIT: Thanks for the responses. They were…..colourful. Reddit never disappoints.

Relocating to TX - need help on where to move

Hey y'all,

I'm a southern European young man (27M) relocating soon to Texas. I will be going for a WFH job so I could choose any state to live in, however, I already lived near San Antonio a while ago (I was a teenager) and the Lone Star state is my first and only choice in the list.

I would like to ask you for any suggestions on where I should move. These are my 3 main decision points:

  1. I would like to get an apartment/house on the max. $1200/month range.

  2. I want to live close to an airport with good national connections, as I will need to frequently travel within the US for work.

  3. Since I am young, I want to live somewhere I could do activities and meet other people my age. I am quite a sociable person and enjoy outdoor activities - I go clubbing every so often but I'm not a night owl.

Apart from this, what's the average daily life of a Texan? How easy will it be for me to integrate with local folks?
