The Fifth Column

Talaricogiffords

“I am so thankful that you asked this question, and also thankful that young activists have really drawn the link between climate change and white supremacy and capitalism in our country,” Talarico said. “And I think only ending the ways that all three of those oppressive systems work together, are we going to be able to begin the process of dismantling them.” [More]

That endorsement is looking more and more like treason, especially if you dig a bit deeper. Anybody who thinks our guns are all they want is a criminally negligent citizenship malpractitioner.

What’s the word…? “Submit“…?

A ‘Pro-Gun Democrat’

In a 2016 interview, Latin Grammy Award-winning artist and Democratic congressional candidate Bobby Pulido defended a fellow singer against criticism for a graphic music video that depicted acts of sexual violence and murder. In the video production of “Fuiste Mía” or “You were mine” by Gerardo Ortiz, a singer walks in on his girlfriend cheating on him. After shooting her lover, he then handcuffs her to a pole, blindfolds her, and gropes her before putting her in the trunk of his car and setting it on fire. [More]

Hey, what’s the big deal? He’s “one of us” isn’t he?

That must be why he embraces this guy:

If shooting guns were the only criteria, we’d have no better pal than Lon Horiuchi.

Based on who else they help attain political power, there ARE no “Pro-Second Amendment” Democrats.

Which makes me wonder what the hell NRA is doing endorsing one after she had come out for Joe Biden. Have they learned nothing with Kirsten Gillibrand? John Dingell? Hary Reid? Jon Tester? Bart Stupak…?

Lie of Omission

JONATHAN TURLEY: James Talarico’s defense of gun control leaves out a key word… The reason, he declared, is that the Second Amendment expressly embraces gun control by referring to the right to bear arms as “well regulated.” [More]

But, of course, that’s simply not true.

So why is it so many Texans are willing to vote in a demonstrable liar?

Maybe You CAN Judge a Book by Its Cover…

Books that have sparked fierce battles in Texas schools over sexually explicit content are available through the library of the Austin church where Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico both attends and preaches. An online catalog for St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church includes titles such as “Gender Queer,” “All Boys Aren’t Blue, This Book Is Gay,” and “Me and Earl and the Dying Girl”—books critics have argued contain graphic sexual content inappropriate for minors.

Cue indignant outrage from the same people who want to ban Mark Twain and Harper Lee.

When Seconds Count

Texas Democrat James Talarico Said Having Police in Schools Fuels ‘Culture of Violence’ in Newly Resurfaced Audio [More]

Why is it every time I see this lunatic I picture Elliot Page?

If it ends up being between him and Cornyn, well, this is how the system keeps gunvoters in line.

And look what else Texans can elect. Good grief.

Going Viral

[W]ould I word it differently? Would I use a different metaphor? Maybe… [More]

Note he didn’t say he doesn’t believe every word of it?

What do we do with viruses? Pretty much the same thing we do with vermin.

And James has just the plan to make that happen.

Don’t be a useful Fudd idiot like John, conveniently not identified so his creds as a representative Texas gun owner could be checked.

The People Have Spoken

From Texas Scorecard, via email:

How that translates into electability is anybody’s guess, but anyone who says Texas will go solidly and reliably “red” may have a point, if you go back to the original understanding of the term.

And that’s just the way Joe Rogan likes it.

The French Mistake

In a moment we should have seen coming, New York Times columnist David French has just gushed out a shameless celebration of Talarico’s insane nonsense, every word of which should qualify the worst op-ed prostitute in America for urgent psychiatric intervention. Here’s a whole paragraph: “Or, to put it another way, Talarico is one of the few openly Christian politicians in the United States who acts like a Christian, and by acting like a Christian he reveals a profound contrast with so many members of the MAGA Christian movement that’s dominated American political life for 10 years.” [More]

Who but Democrats believe the DSM lie that David French is a “conservative”?

And who but a useful idiot believes James Talarico is anything other than a subversive?

Rogan Gushing Over Gun Prohibitionist Should Define His Credibility

They call ’em “Judas Goats” for a reason.
