TX GOP Convention: Reps had an actual elephant at the convention and the elephant I think spoke for everyone here when it urinated while walking down the aisle on the convention floor.
TX Sen: In addition to his World Cup ads, Talarico is running a TV commercial in the San Antonio market tonight during Game 5. The ad celebrates the Spurs’ history and style of play, interspersing "images of Spurs greats such as David Robinson, Tim Duncan and the former coach Gregg Popovich, along with images of Mr. Talarico working with students in San Antonio’s Westside when he was a middle-school teacher." In the ad, Talarico states that "San Antonio has shown the world how to win the right way. Not by hogging the ball, but as one team. I learned that as a teacher on the Westside. My students didn’t have much, but they had each other’s backs." https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/13/us/politics/talarico-spurs-campaign-ad.html
What smart advertising! Not just about the candidate but using the local team’s history and style of working together as both a tie to the candidate and a not-so-subtle distinction from his opponent Paxton.
