Missouri senator says he would torch 'woke pornographic books' after false claims of book burning at GOP event
Fox News
Republican state Sen. Bill Eigel, who is running for governor in Missouri, said he would burn "woke pornographic books" on the governor's lawn should they end up in state schools.
The video drew criticism after a user on X, formerly Twitter, claimed the two senators were "at a literal book burning" – a post that has since been fact-checked by Snopes stating that is not the case.
Eigel responded to the post himself by saying the blazing cardboard boxes represented what he plans to do to "leftist policies" and "RINO corruption" in Jefferson City, the state's capital.
