James Talarico Once Asked Who He Loved Besides Friends And Family. His Answer: Trans Kids

Democratic Texas state Rep. James Talarico said that he loved transgender children when asked to name something he loved other than family and friends during a May 11, 2023, episode of “A Superbloom Podcast.”

Talarico has a long record of pushing his left-wing agenda on schools, including opposing restrictions on child sex-change operations. During the podcast, Talarico referenced a specific group of transgender children whom he called an “inspiration” in a clip unearthed by the Daily Wire on Monday.

“I love — I’m just going to say this because it’s on my mind — the trans children who showed up yesterday at the state Capitol to advocate for their humanity,” Talarico said. “They shouldn’t have to, but it was an inspiration to watch.”

Talarico explained what he was referring to earlier on during the podcast.

“We were going to debate a bill that would deny trans children life-saving health care, and ultimately we didn’t get to the bill because Democrats called a point of order and were able to delay the bill a few days,” he said. “But we had trans activists, trans children, trans parents of trans children in the gallery, and they also launched their own peaceful protest and were removed from the gallery. And in fact, there’s video of one of the law enforcement officers violently throwing down one of those trans activists outside the House chamber.”
