there were a couple of posts before this thread became official:

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) does not accept money from AIPAC; however she votes consistently to arm and fund the IDF.

Texans can better address how she does locally, as in this case in her race against James Talarico, but the antiwar bloc and peace Samaritans won't vote for Jasmine Crockett in national elections.

Don't believe me?
Don't care.

The majority of Democrats are corporate whores.

Progressive policy is populist policy, something that Democrats have consistantly undermined.

I like James Talarico. Been following him on social media for a little over a year.

He's a very sensible person with a straightforward, honest message.

He talks to people rather than talking down to them and seems incredibly genuine.

His message is he want to fight for Texans, not just the ones in big cities but also rural areas.

If I lived in Texas I'd vote for him without hesitation.

I also like Jasmine Crockett, it's a shame they're running against each other, Texas would benefit from having both of them represent the state.

That's unfortunate.

She's a very passionate, intelligent, hardworking person who would do her best for all Texans.

#7 You're right about Crockett, Clown.

Unfortunately, Texas is one of the last places where a woman of color would be elected state-wide in a typically red state.

Sadly, America needs another century or two of political evolution before we're ready to join the rest of the world.
