Read lessJames Talarico posts photo eating meat after GOP rips ‘nonmeat campaign’
Conservative News Daily ^ | Mar. 18, 2026 | David Zimmerman

Texas state Rep. James Talarico drew republican backlash after a photo surfaced showing him eating meat, reigniting scrutiny of his past “nonmeat” campaign tied to climate-change activism. The article notes a 2022 video in which Talarico explained his vegan stance and that his campaign had become nonmeat, with his spokesman countering the narrative in a tongue-in-cheek response. Despite the controversy, Talarico advanced to the general election in the Texas Senate race, set to face John Cornyn or Ken Paxton after defeating Jasmine Crockett in the Democratic primary. GOP figures including Cornyn, Cruz, Roy, and Gill mocked his meat-free past, and the national party even posted a satirical cover in response. Trump has not endorsed either candidate yet, though NBC News reports he is leaning toward cornyn, suggesting either GOP candidate could defeat a perceived weak Talarico.

Please follow the link of this weirdo attempting to eat "meat." Looks like he's trying to eat a lobster tail in the weirdest way imaginable. Sort of like Walz trying to show what a "he man" he was by failing to load a shotgun on national TV. I ran this weird pic down because it was shown a couple of nights ago on FNC.

Yeah, a PSYCHO, appears to be some kind of foul Democrat strategy experiment. Recall how often they failed with that ridiculous manufactured ‘Beto’ thing they kept pimping on Texas and nobody was buying.

So true. The truly weird thing about this guy and Timmy Walz is that both failed to do the most basic thing anybody in either junior high or high school drama or debate would do, have a dress rehearsal to work out the kinks. In the case of these two fools, on the other hand, it seemed that each was perfectly happy to release an immensely embarrassing video of himself that defeated the whole purpose of making the video. With Talarico it appears that he didn’t even know what basic cuts of meat are and how to eat them, yet he produced a video that did a better job than anything created by the Republicans could have of showing what a weird character he is.

It goes beyond ‘gay’ - gay people are usually still real people.

This is something very contrived and artificial, like a deliberate distortion of a real person...I can’t put my finger on it, but it gives me the creeps.

He certainly does seem like an AI creation - the kind with inexplicable extra legs or missing fingers, etc.
