ICYMI: Pulido Is Democrats’ Latest South Texas Disaster
In case you missed it, a new report shows Democrats are scraping the bottom of the barrel with their so-called “Top Recruit” Bobby Pulido, who is a political disaster.
“Democrats are so desperate to hold power in South Texas, they’re now propping up an out of touch celebrity candidate whose baggage, comments, and record are already turning him into a liability. Texans want a serious leader like Congresswoman Monica De La Cruz focused on border security, affordability, and public safety not a radical Democrat working on his next vanity project.”– NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez

South Texas congressional race: Cartels, child sex offenders, Mexicans voting
The Center Square

Accusations regarding cartels, child sex offendersand foreign election interference are at the center of a south Texas congressional race.
Of several seats Democrats have targeted to flip blue in the midterms, one is in south Texas: CD 15, held by U.S. Rep. Monica De LA Cruz, R-Edinburg.
[…]
Her platform has been consistently pro-life, pro-border security, pro-oil and gas and pro-Israel to the point of her office being vandalized by Hamas supporters.
[…]
Democrats have poured money into her challenger’s race: two-time Latin Grammy award winner and singer, Bobby Pulido, also from Edinburg.
So far, his campaign has been mired in controversy. Allegations include foreign interference, cartel connections, being anti-law enforcement, longtime connections to a registered sex offender, dressing like a woman and appearing to perform lewd acts in a music video.
De La Cruz has warned of election interference from Mexican officials after the mayor of General Bravo in Nuevo León, Mexico, encouraged Mexicans’ family members living in Texas to vote for Pulido.
[…]
Pulido has come under fire for claiming Trump’s border security efforts are racist in a district where residents support border security and voted for Trump.
[…]
He also said he didn’t want to “demonize law enforcement” but “a lot of the people that are joining, not all of them, [federal immigration enforcement] there’s a lot of White nationalists that want to join because they want to go hunt down people.”
[…]
Pulido’s been accused of being a “part-time Texan” stemming from public comments he’s made. In one podcast, he referred to himself as a “winter Texan,” spending three months a year in Mexico.
[…]
In one music video, Pulido dresses like a woman, wears lipstick and appears to mimic masturbating. In recent years, multiple polls have found that Hispanic voters say the Democratic Party’s values don’t represent them, including transgender ideology, The Center Square reported.
Pulido’s longtime accordionist, Frankie Caballero, a convicted child sex offender, went to prison for indecent contact with an 8-year-old girl and has a lengthy criminal history, according to multiple reports. Pulido’s campaign has said he didn’t know Caballero was a registered sex offender, which others in the music industry have disputed.
