El Paso, February 10 (RHC)-- In the U.S. state of Texas, the white supremacist gunman who killed 23 people at an El Paso Walmart in 2019 pleaded guilty in federal court Wednesday to hate crimes and weapons charges.  The gunman still faces state murder charges that could bring him the death penalty.  The shooting was the deadliest attack on the Latinx community in modern U.S. history. 

Shortly before the massacre, the shooter published a racist online manifesto echoing President Donald Trump’s rhetoric about an “invasion” of immigrants crossing the southern border.  That language has since been echoed by other Republican leaders, including Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
