Related: About this forumNebraska 'Freedom Fest' speaker tells 'bad joke' about George Floyd
Nebraska Democratic Party leaders on Tuesday criticized callous comments by a featured speaker for the Nebraska Freedom Coalition, a group of conservatives that helped a new team take over the state GOP.
Democrats, in a series of social media posts, condemned conservative comedian and conspiracy theorist Alex Stein for a joke set in which he congratulated murdered Minnesotan George Floyd for being two and a half years sober.
Seconds later, Stein, who headlined the Freedom Coalitions Nebraska Freedom Festival on Aug. 27, told the crowd it was a bad joke.
Thats evil, he said, smiling as some in the crowd laughed.

        Not to a fly in the ointment, but are there any good jokes about George Floyd?

        One of them is the video underpants is referring to and yes, he is a complete shithead. An absolute rank creep.
