    Talarico Surges in Texas Senate Race

    Texas State Representative James Talaricos viral interview on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert has propelled him in the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate, raising $2.5 million in fundraising.

Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert and Senator John Cornyn have weighed in, with Boebert jokingly suggesting she endorse Crockett and Cornyn labeling the Democratic field as socialist.
