Senator John Cornyn, a Republican from Texas, posted several tweets on March 9, 2026, addressing political alliances and ongoing election discussions.
In his first tweet of the day, Cornyn expressed gratitude to Senator Katie Britt for her collaboration. He wrote, “Thank you @KatieBrittforAL. Sen. Britt and I work together daily to support the America First agenda, and I appreciate her support.” This statement highlights the partnership between Cornyn and Britt in advancing policies aligned with the “America First” platform.
Later that evening, Cornyn posted a brief comment: “My, my … .” The context of this remark was not elaborated upon in the tweet.
In his third post on March 9, Cornyn referenced polling related to an ongoing race and criticized its source. He stated, “Ken crowing about poll from planned parenthood’s pollster. It’s no surprise he wants Ken to win because chances are Democrats would flip the seat”. This message appears to question both the reliability of polling data associated with Planned Parenthood and the motivations behind certain endorsements in a competitive election.
