Summary
Aaron Reitz, former Texas AG hopeful and longtime political insider, has officially taken the reins as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Texas — one of the busiest federal districts in the country. With deep ties to Texas power players like Ken Paxton and Ted Cruz, Reitz now leads prosecutions across 43 counties, stepping into a high-stakes role amid major cases like a multi-million dollar tax fraud scandal. His controversial past — including a fourth-place finish in the GOP primary and fiery remarks about Simone Biles — adds intrigue to his new position, but his legal pedigree suggests he’s ready for the challenge.
