Texas's Talarico Scrubbed Website of Statements Supporting 'Trans Kids' and 'Bold, Progressive Ideas' Ahead of Senate Run

Talarico, who represents a deep-blue district in the State House, has excised the word 'progressive' from campaign site

Collin Anderson
June 23, 2026

Texas Democrat James Talarico's website once promoted his support for "trans kids" and "bold, progressive ideas." That was then. Around the time he launched his Senate campaign in a state that hasn't elected a Democrat to the upper chamber since 1988, that changed, a Washington Free Beacon review found. Today, as Talarico tries to break the Texas Democrats' dry spell, his campaign website makes no mention of his "progressive" values.

As a state lawmaker representing a deep-blue Austin district, Talarico was not shy about broadcasting his left-wing views. On his site's homepage, the 37-year-old said he was "not afraid to stand up to Republican extremism" and boasted about leading "the fight against their efforts to bully trans kids, ban books, whitewash our history curriculum, gut public education with a private school voucher scam, and force their Christian nationalist agenda onto the people of Texas." The site's "Accomplishments" section, meanwhile, presented Talarico as a champion of "Bold, Progressive Legislation."

No, Jesus is neither a socialist nor an anarchist. And Bethlehem was in Judea.
It's really hard to believe this guy really ever attended one day of seminary or ever in his life opened up a Bible.

Talarico Called Himself a ‘Christian Who Hates Christianity’ in Resurfaced Podcast

Texas Scorecard  by Brandon Waltens June 23, 2026

The comments surfaced in a 2021 podcast discussion on faith, activism, race, and gender identity.

U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico once described himself as a “Christian who hates Christianity” during a podcast appearance with a progressive theologian known for advocating transgender and queer theology.

The comments were highlighted Tuesday in a report by The Federalist, which unearthed a March 2021 appearance by Talarico on the Activist Theology podcast.

Talarico, an Austin Democrat now running against Attorney General Ken Paxton for the U.S. Senate, frequently speaks about his Christian faith on the campaign trail and has built a national profile as a progressive Christian voice within the Democrat Party.

During the podcast, however, Talarico offered a striking description of his relationship with Christianity.

“I always think of myself as a Christian who hates Christianity, right?” Talarico said.

The podcast was hosted by Roberto Che Henderson-Espinoza, a theologian who identifies as transgender and nonbinary and whose work focuses on progressive and queer interpretations of Christianity.

According to The Federalist, Talarico expressed admiration for Henderson-Espinoza’s work, saying he was a “BIG fan” and that the author’s book “Activist Theology” had been an inspiration to him.

‘We Could Make Prisons Obsolete’: James Talarico Called To Slash Police Budgets and Spend the Money on Social Programs

Talarico, who has said he does not support defunding police, also said prisons are 'the consequences of systemic racism and global capitalism'

Alana Goodman
June 24, 2026

Left-wing Texas Senate candidate James Talarico says he opposes defunding the police and has a "proven track record" of supporting law enforcement. Perhaps that is true now, but in 2022, he called to slash police and prison budgets and redirect the money to social programs, a move he argued would "make prisons obsolete," video footage shows.

Talarico's remarks came during a 2022 speech he delivered to a group of Texas inmates graduating from a high school diploma program. After approvingly quoting the prominent prison abolitionist Ruth Wilson Gilmore—Talarico described her as an "anti-prison activist" who said "prisons are a catchall solution to our social problems"—he laid out his vision for a "world without prisons."

"Prisons allow us to ignore the consequences of systemic racism and global capitalism," Talarico said. "If we took just half of what we spent on wars, prisons, and policing and spent it on education, health care, and jobs, we could make prisons obsolete."
