'Republicans For Talarico' Exposed As Complete Scam

"This lame rebrand of White Dudes for Kamala is full of lifelong Democrat donors, activists, and other losers."

Leftist outlet MS NOW aired a segment featuring three Texas women who identified themselves as Republicans and vowed to cross over for James Talarico -- but records show at least some of them have voted in Democratic primaries and donated to liberal candidates and causes.

Talarico, who has sparked backlash for his fringe views on Christianity, affection for transgender children, and disdain for the American flag, is banking on Republican crossover support to become the first Texas Democrat elected statewide in decades.

"Republicans for Talarico is as real as the six genders that Talarico claims exist, but has yet to explain what they are. This lame rebrand of White Dudes for Kamala is full of lifelong Democrat donors, activists, and other losers," RNC spokesman Zach Kraft said in a statement to The Daily Wire.

That "rebrand" was put on display earlier this month when MS NOW aired a segment from the political show "Long Play," featuring three white women from Tarrant County who portrayed themselves as disgruntled conservatives eager to vote for one of the most liberal candidates in Texas to run for federal office. The exchange went viral after Talarico's campaign seized on the segment, dubbing the women "Republican Moms."

During the segment, former school board candidate Mindy McClure described herself as a "moderate Republican," but as the saying goes, follow the money. Federal Election Commission filings show McClure has repeatedly given through ActBlue to Democratic candidates and anti-Trump groups dating back to 2018, including the Lincoln Project and Kamala Harris' 2024 presidential campaign.

"You've been Republicans for most of your voting lives. Who's voting for James Talarico?" asked Jennifer Palmieri, the former communications director for Hillary Clinton's failed presidential campaign.

All three of the so-called Republican moms raised their hands, arguing they had been duped by conservative culture-war messaging about "woke" politics in elementary schools.

...

Montgomery hasn't voted in a Republican primary since at least 2017 and over the last 20 years has voted in more Democratic primaries than Republican primaries, according to a Republican source who has reviewed the voting records. Texas reporter Tony Ortiz also reviewed the records, which showed that at least two of the women participated in Democratic primaries despite identifying themselves as Republican voters during the interview.

"Ran the voting record for one of the 'Republican' women featured here and she's already been voting in Democratic primaries this year," Ortiz wrote in a post on X. "Seems disingenuous to call yourself Republican if you've already been voting Dem."

Wait -- if this is a scam, does that mean that The Bulwark, The Dispatch, and National Review might be scams, too?
