Reporter: Ken Paxton has taken to calling you ‘Talafreako’ James Talarico: If Ken Paxton is worried about freaks, he should stop giving Epstein-style sweetheart deals to pedophiles. This is the guy who just released Adam Hoffman from jail, an admitted child rapist, after one of Ken Paxton’s wealthy lawyer friends got involved in the case. Ken Paxton even kept him off the sex offender registry. Adam Hoffman was supposed to serve 25 years to life, but instead he served less than a month. As of this week, he’s now back on our streets because of Ken Paxton’s corruption. Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America, and it is costing Texans, it’s endangering our children, and it must end. The Epstein class has no place in Texas.

Q: What do you make of Ken Paxton calling you a vegan? James Talarico: I’m an eighth generation Texan. I’ve been eating barbecue since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment. If all they have on me is lying about me being a vegan, I feel pretty good about our chances this November. So many of my family members, friends, and neighbors who voted for Donald Trump in 2024 voted for him because they thought he was going to lower costs, end the forever wars, release the Epstein Files, and drain the swamp — but just one year later, they’ve seen how he’s done the exact opposite. What I’m trying to do is speak directly to those Texans who feel like the system doesn’t work for them and it only works for billionaires and puppet politicians like Ken Paxton and John Cornyn. And I think if we can bring those Texans together across all these divisions in our politics, if we can see past the distractions and the culture war tactics — I think we can do something extraordinary.

.James Talarico: We have a government of, by, and for the billionaires. Those billionaires buy politicians like Ken Paxton. And then those puppets turn around and rig the rules of the economy in favor of those billionaires at our expense. Everywhere I go across the state of Texas, all of us are drowning. We can’t afford the basics—groceries, gas, insurance, utilities, prescription drugs—the things we need to survive. No matter how hard we work, no matter how much we save, those ends never seem to meet. This is more than just a political battle. This is a battle for the kind of economy that we will have going forward. That is what this fight is all about.

.James Talarico: For 50 years, the religious right convinced our fellow Christians that the most important issues were abortion and gay marriage—two issues that aren't mentioned in the Bible. Jesus tells us exactly how we're going to be judged: by feeding the hungry, by healing the sick, and by welcoming the stranger. Don’t tell me what you believe. Show me how you treat other people, and I’ll tell you what you believe. Jesus gave us two commandments: love God and love neighbor. There was no exception to that second commandment regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status, or religious affiliation.

.James Talarico: I’m an elderly millennial. I can’t stay up past 10pm, my joints ache, and my younger cousins call me cringe. They also call me ‘unc,’ whatever that means. But Gen Z — freed from illusions — is uniquely suited to lead us at this moment. Many of you grew up on the For You Page. The endless scroll is emblematic of what humans have been doing for hundreds of thousands of years: searching. If we scroll past one more tweet, one more TikTok, maybe we’ll find what we’re looking for — the one that will make us feel something. But what you’re looking for can’t be found on artificial platforms run by billionaires. It’s within you.

Joe Rogan: Why are you a Democrat? .James Talarico: My mother met my birth father, who had a drinking problem that sometimes led to being violent. My mom decided right then and there that she was leaving. She found a little apartment in East Austin and worked double duty at a hotel to provide for us. She saw Texas Democrats like Ann Richards, people who fought for the little guy. That was the classic Democratic Party. I asked my mom what we were, and she was like, ‘We're Democrats, because Democrats fight for the people.’ Our historical legacy is the party that fights for the little guy. That's why I'm a Democrat.

.James Talarico: I can’t tell you the number of people who come up to me at the end of these events and whisper, ‘I’m not a Democrat’ like they’re in the witness protection program — including a lot of people who voted for Trump in 2024. They voted for him because they thought he was going to lower costs, drain the swamp, end the forever wars, and release the Epstein files. But just one year into this administration, they’ve seen him do the exact opposite. A lot of the president’s supporters are feeling disillusioned with this extremism and corruption that is embodied by politicians like Ken Paxton — and so we have a real opportunity to build a big coalition of Democrats, independents, and Republicans who are fed up.

.James Talarico: Are you aware that this bill removes the writings of Frederick Douglass? Republican: I am Talarico: Are you aware that this bill removes the writings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.? Republican: Yes Talarico: Yet this bill still includes the writings of Alexis de Tocqueville, and he's not even an American. Could that be because he's a white man? Republican: N-not exactly…

.James Talarico: Ken Paxton has a criminal record. I have a legislative record. For over 4 terms in the Texas House of Representatives, I have brought Democrats and Republicans together to pass more than 60 bipartisan bills to cut property taxes, to raise teacher pay, to lower the cost of housing, prescription drugs, and childcare across Texas — and I’m gonna put that record up against Ken Paxton’s criminal record any day of the week, twice on Sunday. I’ve called out the extremes in both parties. I’ve called out Ken Paxton for his blatant illegal corruption, but I also called out President Biden when he failed to secure our southern border. I’m not interested in going to Washington DC to serve one political party. I’m going to Washington DC to serve the people of Texas. That’s the exact opposite of what Ken Paxton does — he serves himself and his billionaire megadonors at the expense of the people of the state.

.Ezra Klein: “Do you believe Christianity to be more true than other religions? .James Talarico: I believe Christianity points to the truth. I also think other religions of love point to the same truth. I've learned more about my tradition by learning more about Buddhism and Hinduism and Islam and Judaism. And so I see these beautiful faith traditions as circling the same truth about the universe, about the cosmos, and that truth is inherently a mystery.

.James Talarico to Pete Hegseth in unearthed clip: “You have made a lot of money personally and you've enriched a lot of corporations with advertising by getting on here and spewing lies and conspiracy theories to folks who trust you. I'm asking you to tell your voters right now that Donald Trump lost the election in 2020. Can you admit that?” Hegseth: “I-it’s not your show…” Talarico: “Can you answer the question?” Hegseth: “I-I think I’m answering the questions…” Talarico: “Is this an uncomfortable question for you?”

.James Talarico: Ken Paxton is morally unfit for office. He’ll lie to you with a straight face. He’s failed the character test. He’s the most corrupt Attorney General of our lifetime, and he puts the interests of himself over the laws of Texas. Those aren’t my words. Those are the words of Ken Paxton’s fellow Republicans. This November working Texans — Democrats, Independents, and Republicans alike — are going to come together to defeat the most corrupt politician in America and the broken political system that he represents.

.Ezra Klein: “What is, to you, the ‘rage economy’?” James Talarico: “The billionaires own the algorithms and the news networks. They have created for-profit platforms that divide us on an hourly basis — by party, by race, by gender, by religion. They elevate the most extreme voices very strategically to provoke our outrage, because that leads to more clicks, which leads to more money for them. They are selling us conflict right into our bloodstream, and they’re calling it connection. And I think it’s left people starving for actual community.”

.James Talarico to Joe Rogan: My principal told me I was going to teach this kid named Justin, who had brought a knife to school. I told him I wanted to get to know him. We started to build a rapport. Right before winter break, he brought me this gift — a snowflake that he had bought at the Dollar Tree for his teacher. I came back after winter break and heard this commotion. There were two of our coaches restraining Justin. That was the last time I ever saw him. Justin had been seeing a therapist provided by the school district, but because of budget cuts, the district had eliminated the therapist. Adults he was trying to trust were abandoning him. That was the radicalizing experience for me. People at the state capitol had cut $5 billion from our schools. I promised myself that if I ever got power I would do everything I could to stop that. Justin and my students are the criteria I use to evaluate public policy.
