Definitely this. The more ongoing investigations there are in other countries, the more likely it is for damaging info to come out AND it will keep the Epstein files in the news for years more.

An investigation was also just opened in France

I think that's a huge leap. Talarico's positions are way left of the Democratic establishment, why would they be more "scared" of Crockett than him? He's got Zionist groups actively campaigning against him because he's forthright about the Gaza genocide. He's setting his campaign up against the wealthy and openly criticizing the Democratic party's subservience to wealthy donors. There just isn't that much difference between their political positions, and I don't get your angle.

Here's a recent headline:

Texas Jewish voters alarmed by James Talarico’s Israel rhetoric

Local leaders said that, without improved outreach from Talarico to address their concerns, they’re likely to vote for Rep. Jasmine Crockett in the Democratic primary

I agree, though after listening to both of them a bunch, I'm supporting Talarico in this election. I hope to continue to see Crockett's star rise though

He's not on the ballot...

I didn't say at all that that's what's insane, but the Texas government's relentless adherence to rules of procedure has made it where much of the worst legislation proposed by Republicans has been defeated or significantly delayed through points of order and delay tactics by Democrats

You can still (and should) watch it on YouTube!

It appears the post was removed, so the system worked, right?

An element of what you say is true, but he's also a cult of personality that they're really going to struggle to replicate. Trump literally only cares about himself and has taken zero (0) steps to develop successors. Right now, JD Vance is poised to lead the movement, and he has the personality of a potato

Here in Texas, our leading candidates for Senate (James Talarico) and governor (Gina Hinojosa) are taking refreshingly reality-based positions on Gaza and seem to be developing campaigns aimed directly against billionaires. I like what I've been hearing

I'll remember this next time I sing "Short Dick Man"

 

The evidence released so far suggest Tyler Robinson could potentially be linked to a movement like the Order of Nine Angles or 764.

 

But now I'm in bed questioning my decision.

 

so I turned on some lights.
