Vermont Legislator (R) Resigns Over Racist Republican Texts

[C_Clayton_Jones]

“A Vermont Republican legislator who faced bipartisan condemnation after participating in a long-running group chat that was peppered with racist and antisemitic language announced on Friday that he would resign.

State Senator Samuel Douglass, 26, was one of a dozen young Republican Party activists from around the country who had participated in the texts, which were first reported on Tuesday by Politico. And while some participants worked for Republican lawmakers or held government posts, Mr. Douglass was the only elected official.”

This is typical of far too many on the right.

Rightwing racists and bigots are unfit to serve in any public office.

Douglass is a victim of his own racism, bigotry, and hate.

Anyone surprised that people in Vermont say things like this? I’m not.

Have you ever noticed how there never seems to be any texts from the GOP that are uncovered about expanding voting rights or liberty?
