Radical US Senate candidate James Talarico of Texas held a Big Apple fundraiser hosted by leaders of a group that supports gender surgery and transition drugs for minors — weeks after insisting he opposes the controversial practices.

In a Sept. 8 Fox News interview, the Democratic state legislator facing Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in a critical November race, said he’d vote in favor of a national ban on gender surgery for minors if elected to the Senate.

And the 37-year-old also claimed he’s “been consistent on this issue,” adding that his earlier opposition to a Texas bill to ban transgender surgeries on minors was simply because the measure “was overly broad.”

Yet Talarico’s Tuesday Greenwich Village fundraiser was hosted by three people who serve on the boards of the Human Rights Campaign or its foundation — an organization that advocates access to what it calls “gender-affirming care” for transgender minors, according to TexasScoreCard.com.

The reception’s hosts included Morgan Cox, who sits on the HRC’s board of directors; author Andrew Solomon, who serves on the HRC Foundation Board of Directors; and former US Ambassador to Spain James Costos, who sits on both the HRC and its foundation boards, according to an event flyer.

As the title of the article stated, Talarico now states he opposes sex change surgeries for minors. And yet he is raising money for groups which do support "gender affirming care." Beware of weasel words. Sex altering drugs can also do severe damage.

TDS nut Robert de Niro is another Talarico supporter.

Please vote against Talarico, who also wants to "dismantle capitalism."

We already have 2 crazy dem senators from California. Talarico would vote with them.
