U.S. Senator John Cornyn openly criticized Bo French, the Republican hopeful for the Texas railroad commission. Cornyn's censure targeted at a Twitter message that French made. That post directed toward Asian-American pupils at the University of Texas. Cornyn called the post as bigoted and offensive. French is seeking election to on the railroad commission, a state regulatory body. Cornyn's statement is part of the persistent focus on French's social media activity. That attention has been growing for a while.
