Amid rising antisemitism, Jewish voters are feeling politically homeless. Also, Messi milestones at the World Cup.
from NTX Now · host KERA News
The 2026 Texas Democratic convention will be held in Corpus Christi later this week, where delegates will consider nearly 20 resolutions targeting Israel. This comes amid rising antisemitic sentiment in both major political parties that’s leaving some Jewish voters feeling politically homeless. Texas Democrats are also gathering this week to rally behind U-S Senate candidate James Talarico. But U-S Representative Jasmine Crockett, a Dallas native, won't be there. She told The Dallas Morning News she does not plan to attend the convention, putting her energy towards down-ballot candidates across the country instead... a direct contradiction to the statement she gave to KERA News on March 3rd. Soccer fans across the globe are keeping an eye on the Argentina national team this year, knowing history could be made. As his career comes to a close, legendary player Lionel Messi might cross a few more milestones during the World Cup right here in North Texas.
