Hendrix, the Kansas Young Republicans vice chair, and Luke Mosiman, chair of the Arizona Young Republicans, were, at 24, the youngest participants in the chat whose ages Mother Jones could determine through public reporting and records. Politico reported Hendrix used variations of a racial slur more than a dozen times in the chat.
According to Kansas NPR affiliate KCUR, Hendrix lost his job as communications assistant for Kansas’ Republican Attorney General Kris Kobach after Politico reporters asked his boss, who is also the state GOP chair, about the texts. Hendrix did not respond to Politico’s requests for comment. The Kansas GOP said it was “disgusted” by the comments and that they do not reflect the views of Kansas Republicans, who, it emphasized, “elected a black chair a few months ago.” The Kansas Young Republicans reportedly became “inactive” after the messages were published.

We elected a token black guy, so we’re not racist.
It’s one of those catch 22 moments. If you say it, it’s not true.
Ew
I said in another thread that I worried that they weren’t speaking sardonically. Speaking that way in a setting where they intend to affect change, at that age, these people are actively and sincerely choosing to make the world a worse place for everyone.
It’s just words, guys. But if you mock Charlie Kirk, then get deported, lib.
That’s only because republicans 18-24, and 36-90 weren’t in the chat. If they were, they would have been saying the exact same things.
Those age groups aren’t kids either.
Mentally/Emotionally or Chronologically?
Well if we went with emotionally/mentally, even the 80+ year old republicans are children.
30 year old boys and 13 year old women, that’s Republican values
There are certain people the right allow to praise Hitler.
When I saw the photos, it was clear that these were losers who just never grew up.
