Here we go again! In 2025, whites on the left complained ad nauseam that the Democrats weren’t standing up to Trump. Jasmine put herself out there and practically single handedly called him out on a daily basis. Even the whites on the left applauded her gumption and leadership.

But let her run a legitimate race for Senate against a white man? Here’s what I have been reading in some subreddits.

“I can’t stand her. She is too loud mouthed.”

“She can’t win. I wish she would drop out.”

“She is going to ruin everything. It is her ego.”

I believe Jasmine is going to trounce Talarico on Tuesday. Texas has the largest black population in the country, but they haven’t flexed their political potential because they are used to losing. Jasmine’s research uncovered this untapped potential JUST LIKE STACEY ABRAMS DID IN GEORGIA TO DELIVER TWO SENATE SEATS AFTER THE FIRST ELECTION OF TRUMP !

I hope she can win the general without the left whites who will sit out in protest, hoping she loses so they can say, “I told you so.”

Representative Alexander N. Green of Texas’s 9th Congressional District responded on the House floor after a colleague said God opposes rights for transgender Americans. Green warned against using religion to deny civil rights, drawing a direct comparison to how scripture was once cited to justify the enslavement of Black Americans. His remarks framed the moment as part of a longer American pattern where faith has been invoked both to oppress and to advance freedom.
