If Talarico wins (which he hopefully will & I say that as a conservative), it will send shock waves through the @GOP. Same with the knucklehead DSA bozos. Folks, to save America we must harshly punish parties who promote the worst of us. This is one place both D/R shld agree.

Anyone not voting for Ken Paxton in Texas is NUTS. Check out these top five MAGA moments: 1. He filed the Texas v. Pennsylvania Supreme Court case to challenge the 2020 election results in key battleground states. 2. He sued the Biden administration over 100 times - blocking deportation pauses, DACA expansions, and other overreach. 3. He defended Texas’s Rio Grande border buoys and forced continued wall construction against Biden’s efforts to tear them down. 4. He fought radical gender ideology: protecting women’s sports, stopping transitions on minors, and blocking related federal rules. 5. He’s a proven Trump ally who spoke at the Jan. 6 rally and partners with the Trump DOJ on deportations. That’s a record of actual results, not talk.

The Texas Senate race in a nutshell:

.@JamesTalarico: Ken Paxton has not accepted any of these debates yet. When I get tough questions, I answer them. When Ken Paxton gets tough questions, he runs away — literally runs away from reporters, from voters, from anyone asking hard questions. If you've given an Epstein-style sweetheart deal to an admitted child predator, you should have to answer the public's questions. If you were reported to the FBI for bribery by your own staff, you should have to answer the public's questions. If you become a multi-millionaire on a government salary and now own 15 homes on the public's dime, then you should have to answer the public's questions. I get it. If I had Ken Paxton's record of corruption, I wouldn't want to answer these questions either. But he's asking for your vote and your trust — and the people of Texas deserve answers. So I've challenged Ken Paxton to these 3 televised debates. The networks have already set the dates and the times and the locations. We're just waiting on Ken Paxton. I'm not afraid of tough questions. We'll see if Ken Paxton can say the same.

New Fox News poll: 🔵 James Talarico 51% 🔴 Ken Paxton 48%

Let’s go! A new Fox News poll has @jamestalarico over 50%. With support from 87% of Black voters. Democrats *need* to win this race to protect voting rights, reform the Supreme Court, expand healthcare as a right, and put money in working people’s pockets. We. Can. Win. Texas. Let’s do this!

Ken Paxton owns a $1.2 million property in Hawaii with an ocean view. Since taking office, Ken Paxton’s net worth has increased by up to $12,000,000.00.

Texas has the highest number of uninsured people and the most rural hospital closures in the country. If Greg Abbott wanted to lower healthcare costs for Texans, he would've done it in the twelve years he's been Governor.

The president raped kids dude

Hurling F-bombs at an 85-year-old scientist who won’t fight back doesn’t make you tough. Staying silent after your own daughter accused Rep. Max Miller of holding a gun to her head, pushing her against a wall, and fracturing your granddaughter’s collarbone makes you a coward.

All this smoke for an 85-year-old doctor and yet not a single word to his Republican colleague son-in-law who reportedly threw boiling water on his daughter and pointed a gun at her head.

@Noodles_Now @TeamTalaricoHQ So, the office of Ken Paxton is saying that Ken Paxton had nothing to do with the deal, so the office of Ken Paxton is protecting Ken Paxton by saying that Ken Paxton had nothing to do with it. And you believe the government in this case. Here I have something to show you.

You garbage humans, two experienced women lawyers from the AG took the case to trial and got a hung jury, the victim refused to participate in a retrial, so rather than walk entirely free the lawyers got a plea. Cornyn pulled up this story when he was desperate, Talarico’s campaign must be terrified now about Talarico’s election fraud, using a fake address to run in a safe district. The lawyers’ statement on the case below:

A Texas man was charged with repeatedly sexually abusing a child. Ken Paxton offered him a plea deal of 1 day in jail.

We said this would happen back in 2024. Project 2025 always envisioned an America where women will be monitored, prosecuted, and jailed for exercising their own bodily autonomy. Now, thanks to the Republican Party, their vision is becoming our reality.

Republicans are truly not beating the allegations…

Holy sh*t, Todd Blanche told the Epstein Survivors to "Get to the point" in their meeting, like he was late for golf. What kind of MONSTER is dismissive of victims of trafficking and abuse??? Add his many lies under oath, and it's clear: he CANNOT be the next Attorney General.

Josh Turek has plans to make life better for every Iowan. Now, Iowa, the ball is in your court. Let’s work to get @turek4iowa to the U.S. Senate. Turek4Iowa.com

Not going to mince words here, I think Texas Republicans would figure out how to refuse to certify a very narrow Democratic win. The state GOP is absolutely nuts, way crazier than the median voter (who votes Republican) is.
