MS Gov Congratulates Graduate “Harry Azcrac” [VIDEO]

The New York Post reports:

It’s a prank that would make Bart Simpson proud. Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves was duped into congratulating a curiously named student — Harry Azcrac — during a virtual graduation ceremony. In the video, streamed on Facebook Live, Reeves sends his well wishes to the school’s valedictorian before running down the list of newly minted graduates. “Harry Azcrac,” the Republican guv reads, before pausing in a sudden realization of what he’s just done.

Proud moment: I got Tate reeves to say the name Harry Azcrac on Facebook live. And yes I’ve been laughing for about 25 minutes now

Harry’s submitter has a bright future as a Simpson’s writer!

In 10 minutes we’ll be honoring more graduates on Facebook Live. Maybe even Ben—the pride of the Dover family. https://t.co/Njw0GcNCXN
