AUSTIN, TX — Senate candidate James Talarico announced on Monday morning that he would be following in the inspiring footsteps of Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and electing to have his eggs frozen.

Talarico posted a video injecting himself with recombinant hormones to stimulate the release of eggs, which would be collected by his obstetrician for freezing until "the time is right" for having children.

"In light of this administration denying access to reproductive health, I want to keep my options open," explained Talarico. "This is a personal decision that every egg-producing person must make for themselves. Right now, I'm completely focused on winning the Senate race in Texas. That doesn't mean that I should also be denied the chance to one day grow a baby in my tummy."

Talarico admitted to being inspired to have his eggs frozen by the powerful example of Ocasio-Cortez. "I saw her, and I thought to myself, 'Wow, I don't want my fertile years to pass me by while I'm chasing this political dream,'" said Talarico. "The process of egg collection and preservation is extremely safe, and it gives me more control over my life. It's a conversation that every chest-feeding person should have with their obstetrician."

At publishing time, Talarico had announced that he would be donating some of his eggs to help Pete Buttigieg have more children.

He’ll also eat them later

[chopperk]

Didn’t know anyone would want to freeze chicken sh*t.

[Flaming Conservative]

Oooh! Stinger!

[sockmonkey]

I really think all the mean girl plays against Talarico are going to have the opposite effect.

[thegagline]

Vote early, vote often

[hanamizu]

Not in Texas, but is Texas so far gone that Talarico has a chance of winning with pictures like what Buffalo Bob posted are in play?

[Carriage Hill]

Heh...

[Carriage Hill]

</grin>

[Dawgreg]

I hope and pray that the citizens that made Texas the great state it is haven’t fallen for this tripe and will vote to rid our wonderful state of the little demon that represents
everything that’s WRONG in our society!

[Organic Panic]

I have always maintained Talarico WILL win. Texas will be blue. The importing of turd world turds and the blue cancer is now metastasized from Houston up to Wichita Falls with Californicators and ‘diversity’ At this moment having all these tech companies moving to Texas seems great, but All the new tech employees will be indoctrinated libs.

[thegagline]

In my wildest imagination, I would have never thought that a candidate who openly hates Christianity and believes that there are six genders would get over 20% of the votes in Texas. But, here we are.

[sockmonkey]

I do think Talarico has a chance. Apparently, the bloom is off the rose for Greg Abbott, too.

I am in the Texas Hill Country. Very Red. Things I’ve noticed over the past few months..fewer Israeli flags and vehicle decals. Fewer Trump flags and decals.

There are rules for political signage on private property, which I think signs are allowed after August 15th..looked on the Internet, but couldn’t find anything official. I called my friend who is active in Dem Politics, but she couldn’t remember the exact date.

Anecdotal, I realize, but it will be interesting to see once signs go up.

She did tell me that Talarico is going to be here in our town at the end of August.

[oldtech]

I found this hard to believe myself but by now, I guess we are supposed to be used to anything, BUT nobody says we have to be used to crap like this.

[Antoninus]

I really think all the mean girl plays against Talarico are going to have the opposite effect.

Yeah, no they won't. The guy's a freak and needs to be ridiculed.

[Antoninus]

I have always maintained Talarico WILL win. Texas will be blue.

Did you say that about Beta O'Rourke as well? Same cr@p, different election cycle.

[Organic Panic]

No. Beta Orourke didn’t have the same machine backing him. There are powerful, well funded, and evil forces behind Talarico. I have seen first hand what is happening outside of Austin. Who would ever thought Denton would become a satanic leftist s hole 10 years ago? Yet, it is. Every big city there is blue.

[Antoninus]

Beta Orourke didn’t have the same machine backing him. There are powerful, well funded, and evil forces behind Talarico.

The same exact forces were behind Beta. He was ridiculously well funded. Still lost.

The only thing the Left has going for it in this race that the waning GOP-e in Texas hates Paxton with a burning passion. That won't be enough to put a weirdo like Talafreako over the top, though.

All that said, Texas MAGA needs to go all out to win this one. No excuses.

[Organic Panic]

I still stand by my prediction Talarico wins. The more perverted, gross, and evil the democrat the more they win. Don’t forget, just the past few years has seen an incredible Islamic and Hindu invasion of Texas. They are all going for Talarico because they know he will be on their side. Beta didn’t even get that.
