Running on faith: The message powering James Talarico’s Democratic win
"There is an element of compassion that is entirely missed from this world of walls and razor wire and ICE raids we've seen in Minneapolis and across the country. We still need to see how this plays out in November, but I think this would resonate in border counties among Tejanos who have this rich Catholic tradition of social justice."

>“The Teamsters do not care if you have a D, an R or an I next to your name,” Taylor said at a news conference in Houston last Wednesday. “We’re interested in one thing. Are you ready to help us tackle big issues to improve the lives of working families?”
And this is why trade unionism by itself is never gonna lead to liberation. Fighting for bigger scraps of the imperial pie is a losing battle.

Ft. Worth resident James Smith braved the winter weather to vote right when polls opened Saturday at the Summerglen Library. He said he voted for Rehmet because the local GOP is “in shambles.”

Colin Allred unleashes on James Talarico over alleged ‘mediocre Black man’ comment
Talarico called the allegation a mischaracterization of a private conversation in which he critiqued Allred’s campaign strategy, not his life or service: ‘I would never attack him on the basis of race.’

RE: https://flipboard.com/@politico/politics-u9ikh4qkz/-/a-QPHtdqtZSxOwvLZN1c-lhQ%3Aa%3A3195449-%2F0
"[Tallarico] had “signed up to run against a mediocre Black man, not a formidable, intelligent Black woman.” That reference was allegedly to former Rep. Colin Allred (D-Texas), who was in the Senate race until December, when he dropped out right before Rep. Jasmine Crockett joined. Both Allred and Crockett are Black."
