Not a Texan, but, yes, I am observing the Senate Race down there. And, the disrespect being shown Congresswoman Crockett.
Today is Primary Day in Texas.
We will see what happens in those Senate Primaries.

This Texas Senate Primary has exposed a lot of White Democrats. I am certainly not going to forget about this behavior towards Jasmine Crockett and will pull this receipt every time they pull the “I don’t hate Black women candidates I don’t like her” shit.

Truth be told people were prepared to let that race cook but the reaction to Crockett running from people of the Caucasian persuasion spoke volumes.

And again I live here and can tell you that this seat wasn’t seen as a pickup opportunity and honestly Talarico looks like a Fetterman/Manchin/Sinema in the making anyway. But the attacks on Crockett for merely running…. I see y’all.

IMO This race is a test case to see if there’s a way to marginalize Black candidates and push them into the background within the Democratic Party. If Talarico wins the primary watch White consultants roll this strategy out to other states.

I didn’t give a damn about Talarico one or the other and for the most part still don’t. What pissed me off was them acting like Crockett running was some kind of war crime because they didn’t have the stones to say they wanted a White man to run and win.I didn’t give a damn about Talarico one or the other and for the most part still don’t.

VOLUMES. That race went from “there’s a chance” to “this is a lost cause so who cares” real quick once it was realized Crockett would be the frontrunner

@reneepatrice.bsky.socialReminder to Texans that you do not beat white supremacy by voting for a lesser qualified white male candidate because you’re too afraid to fight and put in the work for the more qualified Black woman with a track record of fighting fascism.

Black voters in TX should not be doing ANY GOTV for James Talarico. No phone calls, postcards, rallies, canvassing etc. Just show up in November and vote. That’s it. It should be White and Latino voters who are beating the streets, GOTV, canvassing, etc. Let’s see if they’ve got what it takes.

Oh they are BIG mad when the shit THEY do gets flipped back on them. Now that it’s a White male savior they want Black folks to STFU and fall in line. They want us busting our ass for a candidate we don’t believe in. Fuck that. Go win over those disaffected White people and Latinos on your own.

According to White people supposed “allies” Jasmine Crockett isn’t good enough to be a US Senator but she’s good enough to be AG or DNC Chair.
But y’all have no idea why we are so sick and tired of you and your bullshit.

So few Americans realize that the political apathy conversation is directly related to the voter suppression conversation, which is directly related to the structural anti-Blackness question. So instead we just go, “Why don’t THOSE dummies vote?!?”.

So basically what I’ve learned is that a lot of (White) people view any critique of the system as a call for non-participation. Because for them the only way to participate is to be an uncritical cheerleader. So they read my post and assume I am saying “don’t vote”. A very privileged worldview.

Let me say this loud and clear for the Talarico supporters who are dismissing the importance of the Black vote. If your candidate loses, don’t complain about the Black vote after being loud about not needing us. I will vote or him because we vote for Democrats in this house, but I don’t like him.

I know your anti-Black, racist, homophobic, misogynist ass is trying to hide behind the “no more identity” mantra because you’re too coward to say what you really mean with your whole chest. We may support the same party, but we don’t share the same values. You would abandon us if you could.

I know I speak for the 92% when I say, we vote for Democrats because they represent the best chance we have at harm reduction and inclusivity. Their policies are in the best interest of all marginalized groups. You only care about yourselves and the people that look like you. WE ARE NOT THE SAME.

The next time it crosses your mind or you fix your fingers to say something slick about the Black voters, please remember we’re the conscience of this party and these United States. If Black voters truly decide to walk away from the party, it will be curtains for everybody.
