Ken Paxton’s former top cop on why he’s voting for James Talarico:
I spent 2 hours with James Talarico. Number one, I saw no deception. He answered all my difficult questions. He didn’t dodge anything. He hit it head on.
I have been around politicians my entire life. I served 5 governors, I’ve met 4 presidents… And James Talarico is so different than other people I’ve encountered.
I think he’s the man who needs to go to Washington DC, and Ken Paxton needs to go home.

- Tariff rebate checks
- Slashing energy prices
- 10% APR on credit cards
- 1000–1500% cheaper meds
- $2 gas
- The Epstein files
- Reopening the Strait of Hormuz that was already open
- Cheaper groceries
- Ending wars in 24 hours
- The "privately funded" ballroom
- All the jobs
- Lower interest rates
- That great healthcare plan

This woman is reciting Trump’s words exactly as he said them during the NATO summit.

Reading a transcript of his words makes it SO CLEAR.
