Top Republican leaders in Texas are calling on some county chairs to resign after they shared posts that claimed George Floyd's death was a staged event. Governor Greg Abbott called the posts "disgusting." Senators John Cornyn and Ted Cruz have both denounced them. The incoming chair of the Harris County Republican Party says he is resigning and apologized for sharing a post that included a banana. Other posts claim leftist billionaire George Soros paid white cops to murder black people and then paid black people to riot.
