Gonzalez Funded Racist Blog Attacks on GOP Rep. Flores

Gonzalez Funded Racist Blog Attacks on GOP Rep. Flores

July 20, 2022

A Texas blogger has levied a volley of racist attacks against Rep. Mayra Flores (R-TX) just days after receiving a payment from her general election opponent, far-left Rep. Vicente Gonzalez (D-TX), according to NBC News.

Gonzalez’s campaign provided $1,200 to the blog for “advertising services” on June 24, and yet no advertisements from Gonzalez run on the site. But within days, derogatory attacks began flowing, labeling Flores “Miss Frijoles,” “Miss Enchiladas,” “gringa hag,” a “cotton-pickin’ liar,” and other hate-mongering insults.

The posts came under a byline called “brownsville literary review,” a pseudonym for Jerry McHale, who published one of his latest racially-charged attacks against Flores on Monday:

We have gone through a variety of nicknames for a person who has been described as a cotton pickin’ liar. She hasn’t taken kindly to being called ‘Miss Frijoles’ or ‘Miss Menudo’ or ‘Miss Pozole’ or ‘Miss Enchiladas.’ In her opinion we at The McHale Report are blatant racists. She obviously has no concept of satire, particularly in the political arena. She might have an argument if we had called her ‘Miss Spic’ as a part of our campaign against her, but when did frijoles become the equivalent of the ‘N’ word?

Flores shot back in a tweet, asserting that her “far-left opponent, Vincent Gonzalez, hired a local blogger to run hateful & racist ads against me!”

“But, I love frijoles & I grew up eating frijoles. I am not embarrassed of my upbringings & frijoles w/tortillas de harina is simply the best. Here’s to Miss Frijoles 2022,” she added.

“Democrat Congressman Vicente Gonzalez is paying a liberal blogger to attack Congresswoman Mayra Flores,” Republican National Committee Communications Director Danielle Alvarez told Breitbart News. “These attacks are racist, disparage her Hispanic heritage, and target her sexually. Every Democrat must go on record condemning Vicente Gonzalez and his disgusting campaign tactics.”

But they won’t, of course, because Democrats are hypocritical bigots.
