James Talarico’s Problematic ‘God is Nonbinary’ Timeline

James Talarico is the Democratic Senate nominee in Texas this year. He is raising money hand over fist, will enjoy Beto O’Rourke-style adulation from most of the “news” media, and now faces an exceptionally flawed Republican opponent in the general election. The GOP, desperate to hold this seat, will spend the next several months defining Talarico, accurately, as a radical leftist. He looks and speaks like a youth pastor, but his substantive views and voting record would fit comfortably on, say, the Seattle City Council. The opening general election salvo, or “silo,” as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez might call it, from Talarico’s Republican rival seeks to introduce the leftist to a Texas audience.
