‘He’s Not Going Moderate’: Undercover Tapes Catch Talarico’s Inner Circle Admitting His Act

<![CDATA[James O’Keefe’s O’Keefe Media Group has once again gained access inside a Democrat Senate campaign, releasing undercover footage Monday of people close to Texas Senate nominee James Talarico describing his moderate public messaging as a calculated play for red-state voters. The recordings, released the day before Election Day, capture a county Democrat chair, the purported father of Talarico’s girlfriend, and a regional organizer openly distinguishing between what Talarico says on camera and what they say he actually believes.Williamson County Democrat Party Chair Kim Collins Gilby is heard saying Talarico “will not vote to close… the border” and has spoken of putting “a welcome mat out at our border.” She also suggested his CNN town hall comments on transgender surgeries for minors were intended “to make himself appear more centrist,” adding that “he’s very liberal” and that “we’ve got to get elected so that we can do something.” ]]>
