Wesley KirkHost

1:49

But to start us off on short story number one, it is Beau French's racism again, and Republicans...

Wesley KirkHost

1:59

Not reacting to it enough again.

2:01

So for those of you know, you've probably seen it popular UT, the University of Texas had an ups.

2:08

They were down a lot against Ohio State, which was the number one team.

2:11

They're like number four or five team.

2:12

They were down by like 20 points, 24 points, something crazy like that.

2:16

And they come back and win.

2:17

And so there was an eruption and the crowd was going wild.

2:20

And one screenshot that Beau French found was a screenshot of Indian-Asian students who went to UT.

2:27

And he says, look, here's proof they're taking over Texas.

2:30

We got to stop the Islamification of Texas.

2:33

This is where, you know, this is what's coming.

2:36

And so...

2:37

Just blatant racism.

2:38

But hey, I think, you know, it was a great run for now.

2:41

Everyone knows who John Rosenthal is.

2:43

No.

2:44

Like, I'm interested in how much money John Rosenthal's raised since this moment, you

Wesley KirkHost

2:48

know? For context for anyone who might be a little lost, Beau French used to be the chair of the Tarrant County Republican Party, used it as a platform to spew hate speech, and it seems like the only reason he's running for railroad commissioner right now is to have a larger platform for hate speech.

Wesley KirkHost

3:05

I haven't seen him say one thing about what a railroad commissioner does, which has nothing to do with railroads.

Wesley KirkHost

3:10

Yes, it is oil and

3:11

gas.

3:13

I think we're discounting Beau French.

3:17

We can't say that he's just being extremist because if you look at the local politics today and you look at all the... oh yeah republican candidates

Wesley KirkHost

3:26

if he gets a position of power he will make his hate speech into hate legislature
