Democratic Texas Senate nominee James Talarico called on former President Joe Biden to use federal buildings as abortion clinics in Republican states in a resurfaced 2022 social media post.
Talarico, who defeated Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett in the state’s Democratic primary on Tuesday, wrote on X that “the Supreme Court stole our rights.” The Supreme Court overturned Roe V. Wade in 2022 when it ruled in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that the U.S. Constitution “does not confer a right to abortion” and gave the states the ability to determine abortion laws.
“Republicans stole the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court stole our rights,” Talarico wrote. “We can’t just stand by and watch. I’m calling on @JoeBiden to use federal buildings to provide abortion care to women in red states,” he continued.
In his letter, Talarico wrote that, “an anti-choice minority has taken advantage of the undemocratic loopholes in our political system to impose their radical program on our country.” He urged the Biden administration to lease federal property to abortion clinics “on federal lands or in federal offices,” stop states from restricting “abortion medication,” and hire abortionists “as federal employees to provide immunity from state lawsuits.”
“We must act. Women in states like mine will die if we do not,” Talarico concluded.
Talarico’s team did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.
The rising Democrat, who is currently attending a Presbyterian seminary in Austin, Texas, has made bizarre claims regarding the Bible’s view on abortion. On The Joe Rogan Experience, Talarico called the Bible’s view on abortion “pro-choice” and cited the Annunciation in the book of Luke. The democrat called Mary, the mother of Jesus, “an oppressed peasant teenage girl living in poverty,” and claimed, “God asks for Mary’s consent.”
“Creation is one of the most sacred acts that, that we engage in as human beings,” he said. “But it has to be done with consent. It has to be done with freedom.”
In a series of X posts unearthed following his primary win, Talarico claimed that his skin color “gives me and every white American immunity from the virus” of racism, and “we spread it wherever we go.” Talarico later claimed that “Radicalized white men are the greatest domestic terrorist threat in our country.”
