Red Eye Radio

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, James Talarico may not think that God is nonbinary anymore, but he’s certain that He’s in favor of universal health care. The Texas Senate candidate posted a riff on X about how the Bible is the foundation of his progressivism. Supposedly, through happy coincidence, our Savior agrees with Talarico about important planks of the Democratic platform circa 2026. “When Jesus healed the sick,” the Democrat said, “He didn’t ask for a deductible. So, when I fight for universal health care, I’m doing it on biblical grounds.” This is the kind of cheap misuse of Scripture that Talarico, a former seminarian, finds irresistible.
