See below and here for information about NC Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, the virulent bigot and extremist who the Loudoun Republicans are inviting to their “Patriot Ball” on September 23.
- “Robinson compared homosexuality to cow manure, maggots, and flies, explaining that the latter all serve a purpose in God’s creation”
- “In a June 2021 speech at a Seagrove, North Carolina church, Robinson disparaged ‘transgenderism and homosexuality’ as ‘filth’, saying: ‘There’s no reason anybody anywhere in America should be telling any child about transgenderism, homosexuality, any of that filth. And yes I called it filth. And if you don’t like that I called it filth, come see me and I’ll explain it to you.’ In the same speech, he called for an end to the separation of church and state in public schools.”
- “Robinson’s past antisemitic comments have drawn scrutiny and condemnation. He claimed that the Marvel movie Black Panther was ‘created by an agnostic Jew and put to film by satanic Marxists’ that was ‘only created to pull the shekels out of your Schvartze pockets’ (using a Yiddish word for Black). Robinson also appeared at an interview with fringe pastor Sean Moon, who claimed that he planned to become ‘king of the United States’; in the interview, Moon claimed that the Rothschild family was one of the ‘four horsemen of the apocalypse’ and promoted the antisemitic conspiracy theory of a cabal of Jewish ‘international bankers’ who rule every country’s central bank. Robinson endorsed Moon’s claim as ‘exactly right’.”
- “Robinson called former President Obama ‘a worthless, anti-American atheist’ and posted ‘birther’ memes; accused American Muslims of being ‘INVADERS’ who ‘refuse to assimilate to our ways while demanding respect they have not earned’; called Michelle Obama a man; and disparaged Joy Behar and Maxine Waters in crude terms.”
- In 2020, Robinson asserted that the coronavirus was a ‘globalist’ conspiracy to defeat Donald Trump, and dismissed the threat of the COVID-19 pandemic, writing, ‘The looming pandemic I’m most worried about is SOCIALISM.'”
- “In 2022, after U.S. House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband was violently assaulted at home, Robinson made light of the attack and posted falsehoods about it.”
- “Over seven years, Robinson used his Facebook page to attack immigrants, members of the LGBT community, Jews, and Black people.”
- “After the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, Robinson mocked the teenage survivors, repeatedly disparaging them in personal terms, calling the Parkland survivors ‘spoiled, angry, know it all CHILDREN’; ‘spoiled little bastards’; and ‘media prosti-tots’. He has additionally stated that mass shootings are ‘karma’ for abortion, and has baselessly placed blame for them on gun safety activists, with no evidence to support his statements.”
- “On his Facebook page, which has more than 100,000 followers, Robinson’s posts, which have impugned transgender people, Muslims, former President Barack Obama, and African-Americans who support Democrats, have drawn criticism… Robinson accused people ‘who support this mass delusion called transgenderism’ of seeking ‘to glorify Satan’.”
So apparently, the Loudoun Republicans are cool with this unhinged extremism. How about the VA Republican Party? Glenn Youngkin? Winsome Sears? Jason Miyares? Juan-Pablo Segura?
