Texas Democrat James Talarico beat Jasmine Crockett for their party’s U.S. Senate nomination and is now shifting into election mode. The young Democrat has a trove of social media posts and videos for Republicans to sort through. What they are finding only exposes what a crazy, far-leftist Talarico genuinely is.
Here’s a video from four years ago where he calls for prisons to be abolished and replaced with something love-based. (WATCH)
Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico:

Any major Democrat city provides great examples of what happens when criminals are not incarcerated.
Talarico is already on defense, saying Republicans will label him a ‘radical leftist.’ (WATCH)
Talarico: They're going to throw everything they have at us. They're going to call me a radical leftist. They're going to call me a fake Christian. They'll call our movement un-American. They'll call us a threat. The only truth is we are a threat to their corrupt system. pic.twitter.com/RZo22kR78q

Actually all of those things are true.

Well he is a radical Leftist so…

Republicans will call him what he is and then link to the video or Talarico's online social media posts that fully prove it.
Commenters say whoever ends up being his Republican opponent will have the easiest job of creating attack ads ever. Saying Talarico is insane and woke is an understatement.
I’ve never seen such a goldmine of opposition research.

It will be interesting to see if Dems set money on fire again with this lunatic, or just write this one off. pic.twitter.com/zeeSXKFX59
The only cure is diagnosing the virus within ourselves and taking dramatic actions to contain the spread. The first small step is proclaiming loudly and unequivocally that #BlackLivesMatter.

The ads against him are going to be brutal.
— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) March 5, 2026
And they’ll all be brutally honest, too.
Posters are pondering if the DNC did its homework on Talarico.
It’s insane. Did they vet this guy lmao
— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) March 5, 2026
"Did they vet this guy..."

The answer may be the scariest part.
They probably did, and the results are perfectly acceptable to them (and their voters, apparently).
Democrats are probably thinking they can mimic Zohran Mamdani’s New York campaign in the Lone Star State. Good luck with that.
The legacy media are going to give Talarico a pass and carry the Democrat Party’s water like they always do.
What a lunatic

- Legacy media
Is he saying it would be better to just execute life long criminals? Or is he saying there should be no punishment for crime?

A “journalist” should ask him these questions.
— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) March 5, 2026
We hate to break it to you, but ‘journalists’ are not going to put down their Democrat Party pom-poms long enough to ask Talarico any tough questions. It will be up to Republicans to educate the public about who Talarico truly is.
