In this episode of Politics with the Big Dogs, Anthony sits down with Aaron Reitz, a former Marine and senior conservative legal strategist now running for Texas attorney general. Reitz explains why the office matters, what the next AG will inherit and what Texas voters should understand before casting a ballot.
Reitz breaks down his path from overseas military service to senior litigation roles under Attorney General Ken Paxton, as chief of staff to Sen. Ted Cruz, and as a Trump-appointed leader inside the U.S. Department of Justice. More importantly, he explains what he believes the next attorney general must do differently — and immediately.
The conversation covers:
What real prosecutorial power looks like in Texas
Why the AG’s office matters more than most voters realize
The internal mechanics of high-stakes litigation
How Washington and Austin collide in courtrooms
What voters should be paying attention to before March
