On Tuesday evening Royce White, the Minnesota GOP-endorsed candidate to challenge U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, posted a map to Twitter, now X, with the following caption: “Crime in Minneapolis…Out of control. Come on now. Refund the police! #Godspeed”
The sentiment was standard fare for a political party that often seeks to make crime a centerpiece of its election campaigns.
The map, on the other hand, didn’t show crime at all, but rather the locations of 195 public drinking fountains in the city.
It’s the latest in a long line of embarrassments for a candidate who has himself pled guilty to theft and disorderly conduct, endorsed conspiracy theories, denigrated women and LGBTQ people, described himself as an “antisemite,” fallen behind on child support, and played fast-and-loose with campaign finance laws.
And this:
After the Reformer reached out to White’s campaign requesting comment, he replied to this reporter directly on X, saying “You’re a cuck. We’re leaving the plantation… You and your weird liberal buddies read it and weep.”
Yikers. Mouthed in perfect fasco-speak
Out of curiosity, is the thumbnail at all related to the story? I tried to find any reference to Alex Jones in the article and I’m not seeing anything.
I think that’s the person the article is about.
Yeah, that’s the guy, dude was a C-list basketball player for a few years. Also an MMA fighter with an 0/1 record apparently.
