Democrats feud over stock trading in Texas House runoff
In a Democratic runoff for a Dallas-area House seat, Colin Allred criticized opponent Julie Johnson for stock trades involving Palantir, a firm with ties to the Trump administration. Johnson defended the trades as handled by a financial manager and accused Allred of being self-interested, noting his wealth nearly doubled in Congress. Allred said his assets were in a blind trust and the increase came from his wife's income.

The split, in one line
Coverage now splits three ways: Washington Times frames this as Democrats weaponizing accusations against Trump, while PBS and earlier outlets treat stock trading as both internal party conflict and a genuine anti-corruption messaging strategy against Republicans.
