| Description | The Georgia Republican Party’s leadership reprimanded a state GOP official who said that demonstrators kneeling to protest racial injustice are turning the U.S. into the “land of the weak and the home of the slave.”
The Georgia GOP’s state executive committee voted Saturday to formally disagree with Brant Frost V, the party’s second-vice chair, for his “poorly worded and inflammatory” Facebook post, said Stewart Bragg, the party’s executive director.
It’s not clear if Frost, a Coweta County conservative activist who has a history of controversial remarks, will face further disciplinary action. He didn’t respond to requests seeking comment.
Frost's post, which he has since deleted, praised an “epic monologue” by Fox News personality Tucker Carlson disparaging the anti-racist protests against police brutality. |
