I had never seen this clip anywhere before. This guy is an actual, biblically defined heretic.

If you wonder why I have a bit more of an edge when I'm talking about James Talarico, this is why 👇

[Mike Lee @BasedMikeLee]

Talarico says Mary had to give consent not to abort Jesus

There’s a word for this

The word is “blasphemy”

[Reverend Jordan Wells @WellsJorda89710]

🚨 Suburban Texas Moms: James Talarico just said it out loud.

If you want school choice — the freedom to send your kid to a better private school — you’re a “Christian Nationalist.”
He doesn’t want YOUR child in a private school.
He wants NO Texan sending their kids to better options.
Only government schools. No escape. No choice. Your tax dollars trapped in one failing system.
And while he blocks your family’s options?

Talarico preaches that transgender men can get pregnant… and they need abortions too.
Your daughter’s sports, bathroom, classroom — all fair game in his world.
Texas moms decide what’s best for our kids.

Not politicians like James Talarico.
School choice = parent power.
Share if you’re done with this extremism. 🇨🇱

Since I’m going to be hearing this for the next 6 months as a Texas voter, let me answer the question:

“You would vote for an adulterer over James Talarico? That’s not very Christian.”

Here’s the truth: I would rather vote for almost anyone else who is going to at least advocate for conservative *policies* over a literal heretic who wears my faith like a skin suit, advocates for policies that harm children, endorses immorality and generally harm society.

Ken Paxton has personal baggage. I don’t deny that. But Talarico has plenty too — and he openly mocks God’s law and treats Jesus as a political mascot all while pushing a radical far-left agenda that would be a disaster for my state.

You see, I’m an adult. I do not expect those who are seeking political office to be my moral superiors or even trustworthy. They are tools to be used to do the least amount of damage via policy.

I wish more pastors and men who live godly lives were running. I really do. But the options we get are what they are.

Paxton supports secure borders, law enforcement, lower taxes, unleashing American energy, the Second Amendment, just to name a few.

Talarico supports unlimited abortion, trans-ing children, higher taxes, government-run “healthcare,” and is incredibly comfortable blaspheming the word of God.

I’m not voting for a priest. I’m voting for an imperfect person to represent my interests. That’s how it works.

You’re not going to guilt trip Texans into supporting a looney tunes candidate like Talarico. Paxton will win by 5+.

It’s about policy, not personality.

* It was you who was uncharacteristically quick to join the chorus of the Muslim Brotherhood to depose Egypt's Hosni Mubarak, formerly America's strongest ally in North Africa; but, remain muted in your non-response to the Brotherhood led slaughter of Egyptian Christians.
* It was you who appointed your chief adviser, Valerie Jarrett, an Iranian, who is a member of the Muslim Sisterhood, an off-shoot of the Muslim Brotherhood.
It was you the whole time who ushered in this mess we are in!

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Rep. Byron Donalds just MIC DROPPED every Democrat traitor in America

"They will watch people STARVE. They will watch people be oppressed and they won't lift a FINGER, but they'll go to their cocktail party and talk about how they 'stand for freedom and liberty and democracy.' Give me a BREAK!"

"The fact that you have Democrat senators who want to stop President Trump from doing what he can to help free Cuba from more than 60 years of totalitarianism and a DICTATORSHIP."

"But then the SAME Democrats will come here and LECTURE everybody in America about how they're the 'only ones that stand for freedom, that stand for democracy.' Give me a BREAK!" 🔥

"They're lying. But this isn't new. They lie about this stuff all the time because we work in these halls and when we try to just do simple common sense policy to actually open up America's economy for the American people, drive down costs, have health care that makes sense..."

"...You know who stops us? The same Democrats who go on the trail and talk about how they're the only one standing for the little guy!"

"That war powers resolution that they're bringing is indicative of the fact that the Democrats will tolerate totalitarianism on THEIR watch and they will let it happen."

"I don't listen to them anymore and that resolution is why."

Former band members from the popular 90's CCM band Avalon have re-released the song "Testify To Love" as an LGBTQ affirming anthem and claim it's always has been about queer love.

One of those former members, Melissa Greene, writes in her Substack post alongside photos of another band member kissing his husband at the altar that "love is for everyone" and "Michael never needed to be redeemed. He was always whole and worthy."

This phenomenon of believing that we are somehow nicer than God, that Romans 1 is too harsh or that passages affirming the holiness of marriage between one man and one woman are simply too difficult to accept, is false. We go to God's word for what's true about sexuality and marriage.

If something in the Word of God seems wrong, cruel, or confusing to us, the problem is not with God. It’s not with His Word. It’s with us.

Wonderful time meeting with @SpeakerJohnson and a few faith leaders at the Capitol today where the speaker gave us a spiritual heritage tour.

He pointed out how the embarrassing display on MSNOW (where they didn’t recognize the sentiments of the declaration) highlights the great need for education about this part of our history.

The stories he shared were such a tremendous reminder of how faithful Christians obeying God’s commands and trusting in his promises made this nation a force for good in the world.

As he told us in the House Chamber, pastors who insist they don’t want to be political are derelict in their duty because they are failing to preach the whole counsel of God.

Our faith requires something from us in every sphere, and that includes the political.

Chicago woman mocks Democrats by speaking in a squeaky, high-pitched voice, who say black people's voting rights are in danger.

The woman also called out the commissioners one by one to their faces.

"I'm 63 years old. I've been voting since I was 18. I have never had a problem voting..."

"So now you're all gonna drag black people in here, definitely some senior citizens, and gonna have them come up here and talk about how they're scared to vote... all that junk, when you know it's not true."

This was the school that students got up and walked out when I was preaching.

“Allah can’t hear you, Muhammad is in the grave and Joseph smith can’t deliver you.”

When I said that they immediately got up and walked out.

But here’s what happened next!

More students stayed and heard the gospel.

Then I gave an invitation to receive Jesus and this is the response!

The fact that gay men in the 1980s knowingly gambled with their lives by opposing any shutdown of the bath houses even as the AIDS epidemic raged can be really puzzling to a rational mind.

But an addict understands it. Just as an addict can understand in a way I suspect people with normal impulse control cannot the story of Lot’s would-be rapists in Sodom and Gomorrah.

Struck blind yet still groping out sightlessly to satisfy their lust. At that point, your brain is so perverse and remorseless, truly lizard brain, it takes a miracle to bring you back to life.

Thankfully, that miracle is available. And thanks to the churches that ministered to dying AIDS patients of the 80s, some of those men found it and are with the Lord in paradise today.

Given that I have been critical of the pope in the last few days, including on his self-described communion with Muslims, I do want to take a minute to remind Southern Baptists that our leadership has taken similar stances.

The former president of the Southern Baptist Convention, JD Greear, wrote in his book Breaking the Islam code that Muslims and Christians worship the same God.

And the former head of our lobbying arm, Russell Moore, argued that we must advocate for the building of mosques in the United States.

So this strange promotion of Islam within Christianity is happening all over.

Both Catholics and Protestants should be asking why their leadership is doing this.

[Jesús Enrique Rosas @Knesix]

So the Pope met with David Axelrod last week. David Axelrod. Obama's campaign architect. A man who is not Catholic, has never met a pope before, and whose entire career has been engineering political narratives for the American left.

And then, by pure coincidence, the Pope immediately started lobbing shots at the Trump administration, and three US Cardinals popped up on 60 Minutes doing the same thing.

All organically, I'm sure.

I'm a practicing Catholic. I need you to understand that part. But in my opinion, Trump has all the right to lash out at him. Maybe you'll disagree, but in the end, Trump talks like Trump. Water is wet. I'm talking about MY Church being run like a DNC satellite office but with a golden throne.

This is the same Vatican that watched governments padlock churches during COVID and said nothing. That let Biden take communion while funding abortion and said nothing. That fired Bishop Strickland for defending actual Church doctrine. That removed Bishop Fernández in Puerto Rico for defending religious exemptions THE CATECHISM ITSELF supports.

But somehow Trump is the threat to human dignity.

Pope Francis was bad. Leo has turned out to be worse. Francis at least was vague about his politics. Leo went and hired the consulting firm.

The man has ignored the slaughter of Christians across Nigeria, the Sahel, India, Syria, Bangladesh, Pakistan. Hundreds of believers murdered, churches burned, pastors kidnapped. His response? Platitudes about dialogue.

OF COURSE he won't even name who's doing the killing.

But he'll fly across continents to make interfaith gestures the week after his people coordinated a media hit on a sitting US president.

The weaponization of belief is obvious. You get the Pope to pick a fight with Trump, and suddenly millions of conservative Catholics have to choose between their faith and their vote.
