James Talarico, a Texas lawmaker, won the Democratic race to run for U.S. Senate. As a Democrat, he strongly supports abortion. What has surprised many Texans is not just his position, but the way he defends it. He says the Bible supports his view. Talarico grew up in a Christian Presbyterian church and often talks about his faith. But his explanation of Scripture ignores what the Bible teaches about the value of Life, especially the lives of babies in the womb. Around the time the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, allowing Texas to protect preborn children, Talarico preached a...

Cole Hefner to ban biological men who identify as transgender from participating in female sports in K-12 schools. “The bill seems to think there are two,” said Talarico, who has a master’s of education from Harvard University. “The one thing I want us to all be aware of, recognize, is that modern science...

VIDEOJames Talarico who won the Texas Democrat primary for U.S. Senator loves to (politically) preach. However, he performs Cherry Picker sermons in which he treats the Bible like a buffet in which you can pick only those items you care to consume and ignore the rest. However, Pastor James goes even further on that particular buffet line and also brings his own preferred food items to leave for others at the buffet much as he makes up stuff that he wants you to believe is in the Bible even when it isn't such as abortion rights for Trans.Here we also...

Jasmine Crockett didn’t simply lose her Senate primary. She staged a slow-motion meltdown on the way out the door, complete with preemptive claims of cheating and “disenfranchisement,” long before the votes were even done being counted. Early Tuesday evening, while ballots were still being tallied across 254 Texas counties, Crockett started laying the groundwork for an excuse. She told supporters there had been “a lot of confusion” in Dallas County. She insisted that “people have been disenfranchised,” blaming Republicans for supposedly targeting Dallas and hinting darkly at votes that might not count. Then she left her own watch party early...

Democratic Representative and Texas Senate candidate Jasmine Crockett is already saying her election was rigged as voters are turned away due to confusion at the polls. You read that right.

In a press conference earlier with House candidate Collin Allred, Crockett claimed that she is being cheated, while urging voters to “make sure that you go ahead and figure out where it is that you are supposed...

Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s Amarillo stop was pure performance—new tone, new talking points, suddenly pro-gun. It comes off as calculated and inauthentic.

Prominent Dallas pastor Frederick Haynes kicked off his campaign Monday to be the Democratic nominee for Texas' 30th congressional district — seeking to replace Jasmine Crockett, who is running for U.S. Senate. Haynes passionately made his case to the crowd at the Black Academy of Arts and Letters in Fair Park, framing himself as an outsider to Washington who would shake things up.

“Saturday Night Live” alum Bowen Yang and comedian Matt Rogers spoke out after their remarks that voters shouldn’t ‘waste’ money backing Texas firebrand Jasmine Crockett drew ire. The pair had made the comments on the latest episode of their “Las Culturistas” podcast released Thursday, which drew swift backlash from their left-leaning fans. “Anytime a politician is making it too obviously about themselves, I’m already done, and don’t waste your money sending it to Jasmine Crockett… just don’t do it,” Rogers, 35, said

While no Democrat has won statewide in Texas in more than 30 years, Cornyn's seat is an especially tough nut to crack... This year's contest, however, is marked by an especially bitter Republican primary headlined by Cornyn, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and U.S. Rep. Wesley Hunt of Houston. Many Democrats believe that provides them with an opening. Numerous polls suggest their best chance will come if Paxton — who has a history of scandals and is in the midst of a high-profile divorce from his wife, McKinney state Sen. Angela Paxton – becomes the GOP nominee. Two major Democratic...

A Dallas congresswoman opened her Senate campaign by telling voters that she “has gone toe to toe with Donald Trump.” Her Democratic primary opponent insisted that Americans are tired of “politics as a blood sport.” The divergent approach highlights how U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett and state Rep. James Talarico are navigating a race where Democrats hope to break a three-decade losing streak in Texas. It also reflects a broader divide within the party, with some candidates continuing to focus on Trump while others barely mention his name on the trail. Figuring out the best approach will be critical for Democrats...

Colin Allred is dropping out of the 2026 U.S. Senate race in Texas to instead run for the U.S. House, saying that staying in the Senate race would hurt the Democratic Party’s chances of winning against one of President Donald Trump’s “bootlickers.” “In the past few days, I’ve come to believe that a bruising Senate Democratic primary and runoff would prevent the Democratic Party from going into this critical election unified against the danger posed to our communities and our Constitution by Donald Trump and one of his Republican bootlickers Paxton, Cornyn, or Hunt,” Allred said Monday in a statement....

Ted Cruz two years ago and had hinted at another Senate run, is exiting the race to return to the House.
