The news of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's divorce from his wife of 38 years may be a gift to at least one Texan: his Republican primary opponent, incumbent Sen. John Cornyn.

“Today, after 38 years of marriage, I filed for divorce on biblical grounds,” she announced on X.

In September 2018, Paxton reportedly gathered his staff to tell them, with his wife, Angela Paxton, by his side, that he’d had an extramarital affair.
