Republican Who Said Women Are 'Too Mouthy' Wins Minnesota Senate Primary

Ex-NBA player Royce White has a history of incendiary remarks about women, Jewish people and others.
Royce White, a former NBA player and current devotee of ex-President Donald Trump, won the Minnesota Republican Party’s Senate primary on Tuesday.
White had secured an eyebrow-raising endorsement from the Minnesota GOP back in May, although he was certain to face formidable odds if he managed to challenge Democratic incumbent Sen. Amy Klobuchar on Nov. 5.
The basketball player, once hailed for progressive mental health activism, led Black Lives Matter protests in Minneapolis after the death of George Floyd. But more recently, White has made a name for himself with inflammatory comments about women, Jewish people and the LGBTQ community, leaning into conspiracy theories popular in far-right corners of the internet.
White now counts among his allies Steve Bannon, the Trump adviser-turned-felon, and Alex Jones, the far-right showman who spread lies about victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting and now owes their families $1.5 billion.
As recently as Saturday, White guest-hosted Bannon’s “War Room” show since he’s in jail. Bannon had asked White to be with him when he surrendered to authorities in July for defying a congressional subpoena — an act that prompted White to praise Bannon as “an American hero,” according to The Associated Press.
