  "account": "In a recent incident, Bo French, a largely unsuccessful Texas politician, sparked controversy with his tweet depicting Indian children celebrating the University of Texas football team. French, who has a history of making anti-Indian statements, is the Republican nominee for the Texas Railroad Commissioner and currently lags behind his Democratic opponent in the polls. His tweet comes as no surprise, given his past history of similar rhetoric. French, the son of an oil company, has a history of failed political endeavors, having lost two Republican primaries for the Texas House of Representatives before his recent narrow victory.",
  "summary": "Bo French’s rightist movement is a dead end for our nation. Fortunately, it’s beatable.",
