No Brisket, Six Sexes: Meet the New Texas Democrat

Everything’s bigger in Texas — including apparently the number of biological sexes.

Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico wants Texans to know he’s a different kind of politician. Not only does he believe there are “more than two biological sexes,” specifically six, but he also seems remarkably unwilling to explain exactly what those six are.

Which is understandable. It’s difficult to defend made-up science while standing in front of actual adults.

But Talarico’s identity-politics fever dream doesn’t stop there.

No Meat in Texas?

In a move that sounds less like a Senate campaign and more like a freshman orientation week at Oberlin College, Talarico proudly announced:

“Our campaign has officially become a non-meat campaign. We are only buying vegan products from our local vegan businesses.”

In Texas.

The spiritual homeland of brisket.

You almost have to admire the confidence. Somewhere, a pitmaster just burst into flames.

Of course, after getting dragged online by Texans who still believe cows should occasionally fulfill their God-given purpose, Democrats suddenly started posting photos of him eating meat again. Apparently, veganism was less a moral conviction and more of a polling problem.

Though given how quickly he folded, one is left wondering exactly what kind of meat James Talarico is comfortable putting in his mouth.

God Is Non-Binary Now

Not content with rewriting biology, Talarico has apparently decided to revise Christianity too.

According to him, “God is non-binary.”

Naturally.

Because no modern Democrat campaign is complete without trying to squeeze progressive gender theory into Christianity like it’s a DEI seminar at a Presbyterian youth retreat.

At some point, you have to ask whether these people actually believe any of this — or whether they’re simply trapped in an endless competition to sound more emotionally fragile than the next activist influencer.

Reckoning with Whiteness

Then there’s perhaps the most revealing quote of all, where Talarico explained:

“Prophetic voices like Jesus have helped me reckon with my own whiteness, my own masculinity, my own certainty, my own ego.”

There it is. The modern progressive movement in one sentence: apologizing for existing.

Imagine running for Senate in Texas while publicly announcing that masculinity itself is something you need to “reckon” with. Texans generally prefer leaders who can operate a grill without requiring a therapy session afterward.

The Democrats’ Identity Crisis

This is what today’s Democratic Party has become: neurotic, performative, and completely detached from normal people.

Texans are worried about border security, inflation, crime, energy prices, and whether they can afford groceries. James Talarico is worried about vegan catering, “whiteness,” and inventing extra sexes he can’t even name.

And Democrats wonder why working-class voters, including many Hispanic, Black, and yes, gay voters, keep drifting toward Republicans.

Because normal Americans are exhausted.

They want leaders who love their country more than they hate themselves.

And in Texas, they’d probably prefer a U.S. Senator who can identify a ribeye without sounding like a soy boy at a vegan cookout.
