UMVA has learned that Texas Democratic Senate nominee James Talarico has been thrust into a media maelstrom over a series of explosive statements that have rattled both sides of the aisle.
From declaring that “God is nonbinary” to insisting there are six biological sexes, Talarico’s rhetoric has sparked a firestorm of backlash and a flurry of partisan attacks.
Republican rivals have seized the moment, launching a barrage of campaign ads that paint Talarico as a “Low‑T” zealot, too weak for Texas and too radical for its voters.
In one striking ad, the pro‑Paxton PAC pitted Talarico’s controversial remarks against the traditional values of the state, labeling him a threat to security, safety, and the sanctity of American symbols.
During a recent interview, Talarico refused to retreat, accusing his opponents of “intentionally clipping” his comments to distract from a broader corruption narrative.
He defended his theological musings by citing the Apostle Paul, arguing that God transcends gender and that most Christians would accept this view.
When pressed about his stance on gender, Talarico maintained that he merely sought to honor the dignity of all, even as he admitted that his remarks had sometimes missed the mark.
Amid the chaos, the pro‑Paxton campaign continued its assault, branding Talarico a “vegan” and a “tofu” advocate, while accusing him of promoting open borders and gender‑mutilating surgeries for children.
Despite the relentless onslaught, Talarico remains defiant, insisting that his message resonates with Texans who feel sidelined by the political establishment.
UMVA can exclusively reveal that the controversy has intensified as the primary runoff heats up, leaving voters to decide whether Talarico’s bold platform can survive the partisan storm.
