U.S. Senator John Cornyn publicly condemned Bo French, the Republican Party nominee for the Texas railroad commission. Cornyn's censure targeted at a Twitter message that French made. That post aimed at Asian-American pupils at the University of Texas. Cornyn labeled the post as racist and intolerant. French is running for a position on the railroad commission, a government oversight agency. Cornyn's statement is part of the continued scrutiny on French's online behavior. That attention has been increasing over recent weeks.
