Talarico Pledges in Video to Use Senate Seat to Fight for Trans Children

 Breitbart  

“James Talarico can’t outrun his own radical record, and this bombshell video proves it,” Cercy said. “Now, even he admits his position ‘hasn’t changed.'”

"Texas Democratic U.S. Senate nominee James Talarico told a woman posing as a supporter on Sept. 13 that his position on transgender issues “hasn’t changed,” according to an undercover video clip.

"The recording, captured at Houston’s Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church, shows the Democrat responding to a woman who asked whether he would defend her “niece who is trans” and her ability to compete in women’s sports, the Daily Wire reported.

"Talarico assured her he would carry his legislative record into the Senate.

"“Always,” he said. “The way I fought for trans kids in the legislature is how I will fight for them in the U.S. Senate. And my position hasn’t changed.”

"The candidate added that transgender sports eligibility should be handled locally and insisted his approach remained the broadest in the field.

"'I still think these should be local decisions, sport by sport, athlete by athlete, and I think I have the most inclusive policy of any candidate who’s running,” Talarico said. “So I know things are getting clipped and stuff, but my views, my position hasn’t changed.” . . . More...

New York’s Murderous Jihad Against Red-State Infidels Must Have Consequences

In exactly what ways is "Allah Forgiving and Merciful"?

The American Spectator

It’s bad enough that we must tolerate Muslim jihadists in this country. Non-Muslim jihadists, in hijabs or out, are wholly out of bounds.

"I don’t follow New York politics as heavily, perhaps, as I should. I will defend myself by saying I come about my ignorance honestly; my political-observer stomach is reasonably strong, but not strong enough to make me want to spend my days in examination of that sewer. Instead, I spend much of my time observing the local swamp here in Louisiana.

"Which, rank though it may be, is far more decorous and amiable than the Fallen Empire State.

Awkward.

"Because New York is only of passing interest to me, it wasn’t until Wednesday when I found out that Darializa Avila Chevalier, the Dominican perpetual college student (she’s 14 years into her higher-education training and apparently not near completion, and loudly squawks about the debilitating cost of student loans) who is the Democrats’ nominee for New York’s 13th Congressional District, is a Muslim.

"Chevalier converted to Islam several years ago, we’re given to understand, which would make her the first female Muslim convert in Congress. Keith Ellison and Andre Carson, a pair of Nation of Islam types, would be preceding Muslim converts on Capitol Hill.

"This matters because New York is becoming a caliphate of sorts. Certainly given that its principal city is now run by a Twelver Shiite named Zohran Mamdani, a Ugandan of Indian descent who seems quite insistent on Islamicizing the Big Apple, this would be true. When the muezzin’s call to prayer rings out at all hours from mosques throughout the city and people walking their dogs are routinely hassled by members of the ummah, with little pushback from the authorities or the general population, there is more than a little dhimmitude to be seen among New Yorkers these days.

"'And if you scoff at that, then perhaps you should venture an explanation for this:

"One bit of evidence that Hochul is serious about her new role as handmaiden of the new Islamic State of New York is her participation in jihad against the infidels. After all, the Qu’ran does tell the Believers:

“Then, when the sacred months have passed, kill the mushrikun wherever you find them, capture them, besiege them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they repent, establish prayer, and give zakat, then let them go their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.” . . .
