The Minnesota Republican Party officially endorsed far-right conspiracy theorist Royce White as its Senate nominee this year, potentially setting him up to run against incumbent Democrat Sen. Amy Klobuchar.
White, who is Black, had a cup of coffee in the National Basketball Association before walking away amid mental health issues. He’s garnered media attention for being outspoken about some of those issues in the past and, after briefly fashioning himself as an anti-racist activist in 2020, he became a full-on MAGA conspiracy theorist and podcaster.
Two-thirds of the delegates to the Minnesota state GOP convention voted to officially endorse his primary bid on Saturday, aligning them with another White supporter: Trump adviser Steve Bannon.
