U.S. Senator John Cornyn publicly condemned Bo French, the Republican hopeful for the Texas railroad commission. Cornyn's criticism focused on a online comment that French made. That post aimed at Asian-American pupils at the University of Texas. Cornyn labeled the post as discriminatory and harmful. French is running for a position on the railroad commission, a state regulatory body. Cornyn's statement is part of the continued scrutiny on French's online behavior. That attention has been growing for a while.
