Senate hopeful James Talarico is on the defensive after remarks resurfaced in which he lavished praise on Texas drag queens as "some of the best" in the country.
Talarico, the Democrats' nominee in Texas’ hotly contested Senate race, made the comment in May 2023 while criticizing a bill in the state legislature banning "sexually oriented performances" on public property and in the presence of minors — a measure that would have likely restricted some drag shows.
He voted "present" on the legislation at the urging of the Texas House LGBTQ Caucus after language explicitly referencing drag performers was stripped from an earlier version, arguing the revised bill would better protect their performances, in a statement to The Texas Newsroom.
"I think Texas is obviously the best state in the nation and I think we produce some of the best drag queens in the nation," Talarico told the outlet. "And I didn’t want any legislation to target them or hurt that industry."

However, I do not like "drag queen shows" in schools and consider Talarico's comment disturbing because the principle of "pride" could conflict with our traditions.
Somebody needs to ask Talarico “So, are you one of them, in your off hours? Do you get all gussied up as a Queen?
Yes or No? Halloween doesn’t count.”
I added the topic “editorial” and wrote some of my opinions in the comments
That seems like a queer comment to make....
Steers and Queers.
Talarico is mentally ill. Listen to his words. He’s an advocate for dangerous, mentally ill individuals. He is unfit to represent.
He received his degree from St. Andrews in Austin. I have some guesses about what they teach, but I can’t find a catalog.
How the hell is that NOT demonic?
I defy you to even try to convince me it’s not.
....I can’t find any degree-granting entity in Austin...maybe this??
“Located in Austin, Texas, St. Andrew’s Episcopal School is a private co-ed elementary, middle and high school for grades K-12. Students benefit from dedicated faculty, a challenging academic program, fine and performing arts, competitive athletics, and a wide selection of extracurricular activities.”
I’ve been seeing TalaFreeco comments all over Free Republic but...
Is any of them getting out in the public? I can’t believe any DNCMedia would air them.
Talarico's team: You are not supporting me.
Crockett's team: Not my problem.
But they are both dems so they could decide that Paxton is the real great satan some day.
...I wonder .....have seen numerous Talafreako yard signs here in the Central Texas area but have yet to see a Paxton yard sign.....jus’ wonderin’”.....
Why do Texas Dems always put forward such faggots and simps?

Talarico: "I think Texas produces some of the best drag queens in the nation.
And I didn’t want any legislation to target them or hurt that industry."
“Talarico is on the defensive after remarks resurfaced in which he lavished praise on Texas drag queens as “some of the best” in the country”

Figures.

Faggots are probably the richest donors.
