 A Texas Republican candidate running for the House in November's midterms labeled college graduates as 'radical, leftist, hating-America atheists.'

Christian Collins, a conservative activist and former campaign manager for Rep. Kevin Brady, who is retiring from the seat north of Houston, said he will ban Critical Race Theory during an  'America First Rally' on Sunday.

'We know how important the youth are to our future because you can raise them the right way. You can work your butts off every day to put food on the table, sent them to college, and then what ends up happening?' Collins asked rhetorically. 

'They go off to college not knowing what they believe sometimes, and their teachers, their professors, try to deconstruct everything that you've taught them. And they go off with the college that you paid for and come out radical, leftist, hating-America atheists, and they don't have any usable skills to get employed,' Collins said.

Collins is supported by the campaign arm of the House's right-wing Freedom Caucus, as well as U.S. Senator Ted Cruz and devoted Trump acolytes like Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina and Marjorie Taylor Greene, the controversial Georgia congresswoman.

Collins, a graduate of the University of Texas who got his master's from Liberty University, has said he is running on a ticket that will see him ban critical race theory from schools. 

He also founded the Texas Youth Summit to teach younger people about 'principles of fiscal responsibility, free market, limited government, American Exceptionalism, and the Judeo-Christian principles this country was founded upon.' 

'We are in the midst of a spiritual and cultural battle for the heart and soul of our country, and I've been serving on the front lines of this battlefield for a long time working alongside our pastors and faith leaders by organizing prayer breakfasts, pro-life rallies, and educating our youth on the Conservative, Judeo-Christian principles our nation was founded upon. As a member of Congress, I will never compromise on Pro-Trump, America First policies.

'My top priorities will be to secure our elections and border, stop critical race theory, and impeach 'President' Biden,' he stated.

The district seat is more than likely to remain Republican with nearly a dozen others seeking the party's nomination to succeed Brady, a 13-term congressman. 

The two most prominent have split many of the state's top Republicans.

Morgan Luttrell, a former Navy SEAL, is backed by a political action committee with ties to Republican congressional leadership, as well as Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, former Governor Rick Perry and U.S. Representative Dan Crenshaw. 

Luttrell is the twin brother of Marcus Luttrell, also a Navy SEAL, who wrote the bestselling memoir 'Lone Survivor.'

According to his campaign website, Collins is the former campaign manager and advisor to Rep. Kevin Brady, who currently holds the TX-8 seat and is retiring.
