Ken Paxton accuses media of concealing James Talarico's views

Texas Republican U.S. Senate nominee Ken Paxton has accused mainstream media outlets of attempting to hide the political positions of his Democratic opponent, James Talarico, from voters.

During an appearance on FNC’s “The Will Cain Show,” Paxton characterized Talarico as a “socialist Democrat” who intends to transform the United States into a nation far removed from the intentions of the country's founders. Paxton argued that his campaign must rely on a 17-day bus tour, public appearances, and advertisements to reach Texans because major media outlets will not accurately explain Talarico’s positions.

Paxton further alleged that Talarico receives significant financial backing from the Democratic establishment in cities such as Chicago, New York, and California. He claimed that Talarico is not being truthful with the public regarding his actual policy stances.
