U.S. Senator John Cornyn openly criticized Bo French, the GOP candidate for the Texas railroad commission. Cornyn's censure targeted at a Twitter message that French made. That post targeted Asian students at the University of Texas. Cornyn called 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 digital conduct. That attention has been building over recent weeks.
