Young Republicans Face Fallout After Racist Messages Leak
The fallout from a Politico report on leaked Young Republican group chats continued, with GOP leaders denouncing the messages and several participants losing their jobs.
The reporting revealed thousands of messages exchanged among leaders and members of the Young Republican National Federation (YRNF) and state affiliates, filled with racist slurs, violent rhetoric and jokes about rape and gas chambers.
One member wrote that “everyone that votes no is going to the gas chamber,” in reference to a YRNF chairman election.
Others referred to Black people as “monkeys” or “the watermelon people.”
- William Hendrix, a vice chair of the Kansas Young Republicans, was fired from the Kansas attorney general’s office.
- Hendrix reportedly used variations of the N-word more than a dozen times in the chat.
Vice President JD Vance said he refuses to "join the pearl clutching."
