[1]Talarico for Texas



John —

As Ken Paxton and his allies throw attacks our way, there’s been a lot of
talk in this race about what it means to be a “real man.”

I was born to a single mom who worked overtime at a hotel to provide for
me. But the luckiest day in our lives was when we met my adoptive dad,
Mark Talarico — the man who gave me his last name, the man who raised me
as his own.

Every Saturday he mowed our front lawn. Then he'd go next door — without
being asked — and mow our neighbor’s lawn. Because she was elderly and a
widow.

He never talked about it. He just did it. Because that’s what a man does.

Call me old fashioned, but this is what my dad taught me:

A man takes responsibility.
A man upholds his commitments to his family and his neighbors.
A man does what’s right even when no one is watching.

Here’s what real men don’t do:

They don’t lie and cheat their way through life.
They don’t enrich themselves by stealing from other people.
And they don’t sell their soul to the highest bidder.

Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

spend millions dragging me through the mud. So please, if you can,
consider making a contribution today to ensure we have the resources to
fight back.

A lot of political consultants tell candidates not to address these kinds
of attacks head on — don’t give them more attention.

But I don’t think that’s how you win a race in Texas. You can’t bury your
head in the sand and hope it goes away.

[ [link removed] ]If you agree that we have a moral imperative to do everything we can to
stop the most corrupt politician in America from making it to the U.S.
Senate, I hope you will consider making a contribution to support our
movement today.
