Flashback: Allred Dodges Questions On Backing Minors' Sex Changes & Men Competing In Women's Sports

Posted • October 12, 2024: In the final weeks leading up to the November election, Democrat Rep. Colin Allred has become increasingly desperate as he looks to unseat Republican Sen. Ted Cruz in the U.S. Senate race out of Texas. Allred has a history of supporting radical leftist transgender policies, though he's now claiming otherwise in a new ad. Allred has been at odds with Texas values, particularly in this area, from social media posts and statements, to the legislation he's sponsored. On Friday, however, he tried to hide from his past in an ad that's been circulating over X. "Ted Cruz is lying again. But now he's lying about our children," Allred claims, as he goes on to speak about being a dad and a Christian. "My faith has taught me that all kids are God's kids," the congressman claims, despite being pro-abortion to the point where he's even willing to nuke the filibuster in order to get legislation that would go even further than Roe v. Wade.

"So let me be clear, I don't want boys playing girls' sports, or any of this ridiculous stuff that Ted Cruz is saying," the congressman continues, as he rants some more about Cruz. Allred addresses other issues, and even claims that Cruz "has done nothing to secure the border," despite how the senator sponsored legislation such as the Secure the Border Act and the Justice for Jocelyn Act. "He's full of it, you know that," Allred insists to conclude his ad. Allred voted against the “Protect Women’s Sports Act” last year. AKA, yes he wants boys in girls sports. He also voted against the Parents Bill of Rights. Allred's ad was posted by Semafor's David Weigel, and in addition to the hundreds of replies, there's also been even more quoted reposts communicating a similar theme as to how the congressman's words don't match up with his past.

"This is truly desperate and pathetic. Things have gotten so bad for the Allred camp that they've resorted to flat-out lying on the airwaves. The logic here is truly mind-boggling, considering this is so easily debunked," a Cruz campaign spokesperson said on Friday. "With 25 days left until Election Day, Allred is making it clear he'll do anything to cover up his radical ideology that he knows is not resonating with Texans. Hopefully, members of the media will call him on this, as Texans deserve to know the truth." Others have also shared the ad to point out how Allred had the chance to protect girls' and women's sports, but that he failed to do so when he voted against the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act in April of last year. -- Flashback: Colin Allred pretends to take a phone call as he dodges questions on his support for sex changes for minors and voting to allow men to compete in women’s sports.
