More than two weeks after the influential PAC’s leader met with a Hitler admirer, Lt. Gov. Patrick said the GOP must ”root out” antisemitism. Patrick had initially said he’d keep the PAC’s money.
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick discusses property tax cuts for homeowners during a media briefing at the state Capitol on June 6, in Austin.strongly condemned antisemitism in the Texas GOP on Monday and announced that his campaign is purchasing $3 million in Israel bonds — the same amount that he received this summer from a group that recently hosted prominent white supremacist Nick Fuentes.
On Monday, Patrick said that he was “appalled about what I am learning about the anti-Semitic activities among some in Texas who call themselves conservatives and Republicans” before noting his previous condemnation of Fuentes. Patrick’s statement is the latest fallout from the Tribune’s reporting that Fuentes, an avowed Hitler fan who has encouraged his followers to beat women and fantasized about marrying a 16-year-old when he is older, had spent nearly 7 hours at the offices of Pale Horse Strategies, a consulting firm for Defend Texas Liberty-funded groups.
Defend Texas Liberty is funded almost entirely by two West Texas oil billionaires, Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks, and is a key part of a sprawling network of campaigns, institutions, dark money groups and media companies that they have funded to push their far-right views.
