Royce White, a George Floyd protest leader and former college basketball star-turned-right-wing Senate candidate in Minnesota, was ordered to catch up after he fell behind on court-mandated child support payments at least a half-dozen times from 2020 to 2023, court filings in two cases show.
“And the interest rates are so high that if I pay child support every month on time, the interest is the exact same price.” Michael Brodkorb, a former deputy chair of the Minnesota Republican Party, said Republicans “overlooked” White’s judgments and debts, adding that he was not “properly vetted.” “It’s up to the public to determine whether something is fair game or not,” Brodkorb said of White’s insistence that the issue is irrelevant to his candidacy.
