North Carolina lieutenant governor facing backlash after calling transgender people ‘filth’

North Carolina’s lieutenant governor is facing mounting calls for his resignation after he was caught on video calling transgender people “filth.”

The video, which was first posted Wednesday by Right Wing Watch, showed the first-term Republican making the comments during a speech at Asbury Baptist Church in June.

“There’s no reason anybody, anywhere in America should be telling children about transgenderism, homosexuality, any of that filth,” Mark Robinson said in the video, which has gone viral. “Yes, I called it filth.”

The comments were condemned by the White House this week. “These words are repugnant and offensive,” said Andrew Bates, White House deputy press secretary and a native of North Carolina, in a statement. “The role of a leader is to bring people together and stand up for the dignity and rights of everyone; not to spread hate and undermine their own office.”

Good man. It is filth. They count on people pretending it’s normal. They are scared of people saying what everyone actually thinks.

“These words are repugnant and offensive,”

But teaching children about fisting is not.

If he doesn’t resign or offer a groveling apology, I’ll be pleasantly shocked.

Bingo. These people are all at varying levels of mental illness.

"Polls show the transgender ideology is deeply unpopular, especially among women and parents. In 2017, former President Barack Obama told NPR that his promotion of the transgender ideology made it easier for Donald Trump to win the presidency."

One would think to do so would be a modern-day first for an individual in the U.S. holding statewide elective office. I’d be pleasantly shocked as well.

“The role of a leader is to bring people together”


That’s HILARIOUS considering this Administration has done NOTHING to bring people together, let’s see, forced vaccinations, trashing the unvaccinated, trashing Republicans, trashing Conservatives..trashing parents, calling them domestic terrorists, yep that is totally bringing people together I can feel the love

They really don’t see it, do they?
