I have a whole lot of links saved up to do a Talarico round-up of all his various stupidities and attempts to walk back his social justice activism that I haven’t gotten around to posting yet. In the meantime, Texas Scorecard’s Sara Gonzales has her own roundup of Talarico trying to scrub his radical past. “But the Internet is forever.”
“Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico is running from his past because he knows he can’t get elected in Texas if he tells the truth. So much so that he scrubbed his website when he announced his Senate run to remove references to trans kids.”
“There also was a place where he bragged about being committed to bold progressive legislation no matter how long it takes. Like it was right there front and center in his website. And then, curiously, in early September 2025, as he was announcing his Senate run, these sentences just poof, vanished out of nowhere.”
“It says the biggest divide in this country is not left to right, but top versus bottom. [snorts] Which first of all, I mean, the jokes write themselves, right? When you’re dealing with someone like James Talarico, who we all have some questions about his masculinity, is he like batting for the other team?”
“More importantly, the word progressive completely vanished from the website. You can’t find it.”
“Because the James Talarico is running today in 2026 is a total fraud. He is pretending to be something that he is not in order to trick Texans into electing him.”
“He is not just some regular old moderate just fighting back against the man. That’s not him. He is a radical, radical leftist.”
“We know that James Talarico, for instance, has never met a trans kid he doesn’t like. Actually, he’s seemingly obsessed with trans kids. But what you may not know, speaking of being a radical leftist, is that he also headlined a 2021 Pride event in Taylor, Texas with an 11-year-old drag queen that goes by the name Queen Kiki.”
“James Talarico is a big supporter of grown men dressed as women dancing provocatively in front of young children. James is also a big fan of sterilizing children. Actually, and I want to play you here. He is in his own words complaining that Texas Republicans passed SB14, which banned the trans surgeries for children.”
Talarico: “I think if I’m thinking through the three most dangerous LGBTQ, um, attack bills that made it through, I would say the most dangerous is SB14, which would deny many times life saving health care from our trans youth in Texas.” And by “life-saving” he means “gender mutilating.” He also opposed the bills banning drag shows for children and porn in school libraries.
“According to James Talarico, children should just have access to all of these gay books that talk about how, you know, uh, gay couples are like going down on each other performing oral sex.”
I’m skipping over bits about Talarico’s radical leftwing church since we covered that here.
“They’re housing illegal aliens to hide them from the federal law enforcement. They are obstructing. They are hiding illegals. They are hiding criminals from federal law enforcement so that they can’t get deported. That’s not a church, guys. That is a radical leftist cult.”
“He is a very dangerous radical.”
She didn’t even cover his assertion there being six genders and God being non-binary, or bragging about how his campaign was vegan…
