Texas Political Hack Flip Flops on Candidate Support
Texas wannabe political influencer and documented George Soros-funded hack, Alexander Muse, endorsed Briscoe Cain in his run for congress. Then, when Cain was installed as the interim legal counsel for the Republican Party of Texas, he complained that Cain was a bad choice.
The flip-flopping here is so egregious it almost doesn’t seem real.
Months ago, Muse used to advertise that he only considered sponsorship opportunities on his X account for a minimum of $5,000:
Current Revolt Might be Banned from The Texas Democratic Convention
I applied for media credentials for the Texas Democratic Convention. Intent on giving the dems the same political coverage I gave the Republican Party of Texas convention. However I received this email two days ago and it seems the Dems have decided not to allow CR to have media credentials:
New Chairwoman D’Rinda Randall Hints What Everyone Suspected. The Party is BROKE.
First posted by Brad Johnson of The Texas Bullpen, the letter by Chairwoman D’rinda Randall lets the 8 legislate proprieties for the RPT, names Briscoe Cain as temporary legal counsel, and then adds that the party faces “a large deficit.”
This is opposite to what George claimed earlier this month stating that the RPT was in a good financial position:
OP-ED: On the Talarico Going to Hell Situation, I See Both Sides
By a Current Revolt Reader
When Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said state Rep. James Talarico is going to hell for being a vegan at the GOP convention, I’ll admit my first reaction was: well, Dan would know. He’s a man of faith. He hosts that radio show. And we trust him on the abortion stuff, the Ten Commandments, and especially the THC stuff. So if he says vegans go to hell, who am I to wave my arms.
But I’ve been chewing on it (prime rib), and I’m just not sure.
Talarico is on TikTok quoting Romans (not the Romans passages you are thinking about, obviously) and the thing he loves more than anything, in his own words, is transgender children. That’s a guy with pretty big heart. He’s also polite to old ladies at HEB. If he goes to hell for the tofu, well, I don’t know what to think. I don’t recall any verse where Jesus specifically condemned the soybean.
That said, many people are saying Talarico did the screwworm. In which case I take back anything nice I ever said about the man.
Either way, Lt. Gov. Patrick has the bigger pulpit, and I’m just a guy with a bass boat I never use my single vote I’ll be praying for James Talarico and his many, many issues.
