Most Democrats looking at 2028 are trying to move past Joe Biden. Gavin Newsom is doing the opposite. That is not an accident. It is a strategy. While other Democrats are distancing themselves from Biden’s failed reelection bid and the political wreckage that followed, California’s governor is leaning in.

President Trump says the latest agreement with Iran is moving peace talks forward, but critics argue the deal gives Tehran major concessions on oil sales, nuclear oversight, and control of the Strait of Hormuz. Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico is under renewed scrutiny as old comments on race, gender, religion, and identity politics resurface...
Democrats' hopes to regain control of the U.S. Senate continue to be threatened by statements unearthed from their candidate in a pivotal Texas election.State Rep. James Talarico said that he hated Christianity in the latest video showcasing his far-left theological beliefs.'No other political philosophy, in no other economic theory, do I find anything as truly radical or revolutionary as the teachings of that barefoot Rabbi.' Talarico made the comments in a 2021 interview with Roberto Che Henderson-Espinoza, who identifies as Latinx, nonbinary and transgender. A clip of the comments was posted to social media by the Republican National Committee."I always think of myself as a Christian who hates Christianity, right?" he laughs. "And I always get drawn back into it."He went on to say that his "whiteness" and "masculinity" had limited his understanding of Christianity, then called Jesus Christ a socialist."I always get drawn back into it because nowhere else, in no other political philosophy, in no other economic theory, do I find anything as truly radical or revolutionary as the teachings of that barefoot Rabbi," he added.He also praised his longtime pastor, Jim Rigby of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, as being a "true white traitor."Talarico has been previously criticized for claiming that God is "nonbinary" as well as many other statements contrary to traditional biblical theology.BlazeTV’s Sara Gonzales documented the many errors of the Austin church Talarico attends and praises, including the rejection of Christ as the sole source of redemption. The church also has a lesbian chaplain and provides sexually graphic books in its library for children.RELATED: Talarico's WOKE CHURCH raises money for abortions and trans summer camp for children Talarico is facing Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the pivotal contest for one of two U.S. Senate seats from Texas.

Texas state Rep. James Talarico (D) is working hard to prove to Texans that he’s masculine enough to lead them, but new and embarrassing revelations about his finances are not doing him any favors.BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales isn’t surprised.“James Talarico is like the biggest wuss you’ve ever seen in your life. And there’s more that’s coming out every day about just how pathetic he is, even though he’s trying to paint himself as this big masculine guy after he said that his campaign was vegan,” Gonzales says on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”“He was like, ‘I’m just kidding, I’m going to take a picture of me eating a giant turkey leg wearing a Texas flag on my shirt and look how manly I am,’” she mocks.But the more that comes out about the politician, Gonzales says, the more his “tough-guy act is rapidly crumbling.”“Texas’ James Talarico, 37, shares his only checking account with his mommy,” she says.In an article from the Washington Free Beacon, it is reported that “Talarico’s mother and adoptive father contributed $1,437.84 to his 2021 campaign to cover ‘moving expenses’ when he was 32 years old.”“32 years old. And he needs his mommy to run his bank account and send him money. That’s the guy who wants to help represent our entire state of Texas. He can’t even represent his own bank account,” Gonzales comments.“If you’re 32 and you still need money from your mommy who is running your bank account, you have no business running for office actually,” she adds.Want more from Sara Gonzales?To enjoy more of Sara's no-holds-barred takes on news and culture, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.
