The Morning Rant

James Talarico, of six biological sexes fame, is moderating his insane rhetoric in advance of the general election in Texas. Apparently suggesting that abortion is in the Bible, that transsexualism is normal and in fact needs to be celebrated, and that poverty is violence, might not resonate with Texas voters outside of his district in and around Austin.

And like all good Democrats, he is lying to the voters to get elected, then will shift to his natural stance after the election. You know, like John Cornyn did for years!

James Talarico's Lesbian Minister Just Outed Him

"He's getting some advice that I don't think he should be following." She predicted he'd drop the act the moment he's safely in office, telling the undercover journalist, "I can guarantee you that once he gets elected, he'll change his tune back to where he was."

What's interesting about this is that if the polls are to be believed, Talarico is leading Paxton, so his previous, longstanding and creepy lunacy about transsexualism and children and homosexuality should be a part of his seemingly winning platform. That he is shifting to a more Texas-friendly stance tells me that he isn't winning.

Lying to get elected certainly isn't reserved fro Democrats. The corporate wing of the Republican Party has embraced lying for generations! Run as a conservative, then vote in Congress as a squishy accomodationist who is willing to subvert the will of the voters for financial gain. Cornyn did it for years, and the fact that Texas finally got tired of his sh*t is a signal that MAGA sensibilities are becoming more popular.

What surprises me is that the Texas Democrat Party didn't dig up a moderate Democrat who could run on the archaic but successful principles that convinced America that Democrats represented the everyman. It's not true, and has never been true, but it worked for a long time, and my bet is that it would have worked in Texas against Paxton, who has shown very little skill at campaigning and communicating his platform.

But the Democrat Party has been overwhelmed by the insanity of transsexualism, DEI, Critical Race Theory, overt socialism, rejection of traditional America, and a host of other sophomoric but dangerous themes. So a traditional Democrat won't get much traction. The new Democrat Party is saying the quiet part out loud, and hopefully America is listening.

He's obviously being packaged to appeal to Lefty women, with his dancing tv ad, his Love Island parody ad:

The new ad is apparently a takeoff on the reality show Love Island (no, I don't watch it, either), and El-Sayed is portraying a contestant who's looking for love and talking all about himself. While standing in front of a pink background, he tells the camera that his name means "servant leader" and that corporate money gives him "the ick.". . .

It gets worse. El-Sayed proceeds to tell viewers about his "type," his "red flags," and what he plans to bring to "Senate Island," all while repeatedly making references to Medicare for All as part of the schtick. At one point, he even declares that "nasty toes" give him the ick.

43 Paxton knocked off a 4 term senator to win his primary. I think we sometimes forget how hard that is to do.

Cornyn had been doling out favors to his supporters in Texas for over 20 years and had huge support from the Thune controlled NRSC slush fund and Paxton took him down. The idea he has no support in Texas is nuts.

Every single time we lose a primary to an establishment Republican we are told " the primary is over, get in line and support the winner ".

Be aware Karl Rove has tormented Paxton since he beat Rove's candidate Dan Branch for Texas AG in 2014. All of the bullshit insider trading accusations they tried to make against him failed. Siccing the Houston attorneys on him didn't work. Getting the RINOs in the Texas House to shit the bed with that impeachment scam was a glorious backfire.

88 67 James Talarico's Lesbian Minister Just Outed Him
---
If a "lesbian minister" is your go-to person for spiritual advice, you have wandered very far from the path of righteousness indeed.

So many people are going to hear from the Lord, "Depart from Me, I never knew you."

I seriously doubt that “ minister” believes that.

89 Thx CBD.
The fact that the polls are close, even though I don't believe them, should tell the Bushes , Cornyn and Rove to shut the eff up and vote for Paxton. Paxton may have ended the Bush dynasty when he beat Jeb! spawn, but Talarico is a lunatic who must be stopped

90 I'll leave these kinds of judgments completely up to God. Who knows. Maybe he's fulfilling part of God's plan.

In Matthew 7:23, Jesus states, "I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness," indicating that these individuals lacked a genuine, saving relationship with Him despite their outward religious activity.

This, of course, doesn't negate the Lord using such people to His glory.

92 Clancy's former husband is doing an interview on 60 Minutes this Sunday.

The calls for the head of Bari Weiss from the left are only going to increase.

I wonder how many good respectable people are left in the USA. The pool from which to choose candidates seems shallow.

----'

Plenty. It's not shallow. Millions and millions of people better suited to good government than these fucking swine.

But, our government is not good. It operates on YD's Corollary to Gresham's Law. Once an institution acquires sufficient wealth and power, it attracts evil like flies to honey, and the bad people gradually drive out the good, until it's wholly debased.

She's not alone.

Not reading and applying Scripture is quite common.

95 Was disappointed to see comedian Ron White supporting Talarico.
He was talking with Joe Rogan and claimed Paxton was dirty, " a bad egg", that only the wealthy have their kids in Texas private schools, and that Talarivo got his attention when he opposed a school vouchers bill.
Ron said that they need to beef up Texas puic schools/education and vouchers will take away from that.

96 I doubt Congress is "on vaca." They do most of the back door shit when away from the capital city. No reporters snooping around, probably few, if any staffers too. So they can wink and nod about fucking us over when they get back to "work" in another month or two.

Sounds to me like you take the word of God seriously. Same. “ Religiosity doesn’t cut it, in the end, does it?

98 Paxton will win, but he needs to decisively crush Talerico so that national Democrats will think twice about funding such whackadoo candidates in our state.

Texas Republicans -- mad about Cornyn -- will not commit the resources needed to crush Talerico, so they will have to pay for this fight again in two years, and every two years.

99 In the next presidential election, the democrats should consider running the ticket of Talarico and El Sayed. It's just going to be difficult deciding which to put at the top of the ticket, because they're pretty much equal in their hatred for America. I have to say though, I think El Sayed edges out Talarico. And, hey, he'll get the endorsement of Governor Witchmer, which is no small thing. She'll get all the liberal ladies on his side.

100 There is no money coming to Talarico.

He's a disaster. And the donors know it.

Posted by: MJ at September 17, 2026 11:41 AM (XOmY9)

101 Talarico is a serpent. A liar and a deceiver. An acolyte of the Great Deceiver.

Not part of the campaign but I would like to vouch for Darrell as a longtime moron in very good standing with me in particular. The incident in question may have happened a decade ago but this elephant does not forget.
