Texas Democrat Stuns Republicans with Powerful Speech

A video of Texas State Rep. James Talarico using biblical scripture to counter conservative Christian arguments in support of a bill requiring the display of the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms has gone viral. Talarico, a Democrat, argued that the bill was unconstitutional, un-American, and deeply un-Christian. He questioned why Republicans advocated for parental consent in certain areas but supported the state's role in displaying religious commandments in classrooms. The video gained millions of views and likes on TikTok, and the Ten Commandments legislation ultimately expired without receiving a vote.
