Politico documented the use of slurs, including the N-word and a homophobic term, and antisemitic comments in chats
Some leaders of Young Republican groups throughout the country are facing major backlash after some of their racist and highly offensive messages in private group chats were revealed by Politico.
Democratic and Republican politicians denounced the language used and criticized the group. The Young Republican National Federation has called for resignations. The Kansas Young Republicans group has been shut down and now a handful of those involved in the racist chat have lost their jobs.
The Young Republican National Federation called on those involved in the chat to “immediately resign from all positions” within the organization.
Politico on Tuesday revealed 2,900 pages of leaked chats from a Telegram group chat involving Young Republican leaders. The chats included racist and offensive language.
