They say actions speak louder than words—and James Talarico’s Instagram feed is screaming a whole lot louder than his so-called “Christian values.”
This guy, a Democrat state rep from Texas and the leading candidate trying to take on Republican Senator John Cornyn, has been busted—again—for following a digital trail of scantily clad, sexually explicit, and straight-up pornographic content creators on Instagram. And not just once. Not just a slip of the thumb. We’re talking a growing list of prostitutes, adult film stars, and OnlyFans models—including one who calls herself a “bisexual Latina cyberslut.” Yep, that’s the actual phrase she uses to promote herself.
And this is the same man who claims to be a “devout Christian,” regularly preaching from the pulpit and quoting Scripture while pushing radical left-wing policies. You can’t make this stuff up.
Let’s be clear: this isn’t just about who someone follows online. It’s about the hypocrisy. It’s about a Democrat who wraps himself in a Jesus-shaped cloak to grab votes from faith-based Texans, all while his finger’s a little too comfortable on the “Follow” button of women who charge $2,000 an hour for “the full girlfriend experience.”
One of the women Talarico follows is Alina Lopez, a well-known OnlyFans model and escort. Another is Zoe Pugh, whose Instagram links directly to her own adult content. And he also follows Valerie Bragg, a former Love Island contestant who proudly promotes her OnlyFans account, where she warns subscribers she’s “dangerously addictive.” These aren’t just random accounts—these are explicit, pay-for-play profiles. And yet Talarico’s team wants us to believe it’s all just innocent social media engagement?
Take a look at Zoe Pugh’s Instagram for yourself. This is what your “devout Christian” Senate hopeful is browsing:
Talarico’s campaign is scrambling to spin this story, with his spokesman claiming that James and his social media team are simply following back accounts with “large followings” and don’t dig into their backgrounds. Seriously? That’s their excuse? They’re just blindly clicking follow, and somehow they keep landing on porn stars and escorts?
And then they pivot to the classic liberal playbook: if you criticize this, you’re the problem. You’re just “shaming” people. You’re pushing “clickbait.” It’s the same tired defense we’ve heard a thousand times. They don’t want accountability—they want applause for their “tolerance.”
Let’s not forget, Talarico is raking in millions. He raised $6.2 million in just the first three weeks of his Senate campaign. He’s leading his nearest Democrat rival by six points. He’s not some fringe player—he’s the party’s golden boy in Texas. But the mask is slipping, and more Texans are starting to see the real James Talarico: a sermon-preaching, virtue-signaling fraud who’s more interested in Instagram models than actual moral leadership.
This isn’t just a scandal—it’s a warning. Democrats like Talarico will say whatever they need to win over churchgoing voters, all while living a completely different reality behind the scenes. And when they get caught, they hide behind buzzwords, blame their staff, and act like anyone who calls them out is being “mean.”
But Texans are smarter than that. They know hypocrisy when they see it. And they’re not about to send a man like Talarico to the U.S. Senate to represent their values while he scrolls through cybersluts and sells “faith” like it’s just another campaign prop.
Let’s call it what it is: the guy’s a fraud. And thanks to social media receipts, the whole country’s watching it unfold in real time.
