Bobby Walker, former vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans, has apparently deleted his Twitter account.

Politico’s story reported that Walker referred to rape as “epic,” used slurs, and participated in a thread about sending opponents to the gas chamber.

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.
