Mark Robinsons gubernatorial campaign following last weeks bombshell report of racist, antisemitic, and sexual admissions that Robinson wrote online from 2008 to 2012. Robinson referred to the mass resignations as staff changes and said his campaign would announce the resignations replacements in the coming days. The resignations include Robinsons senior adviser Conrad Pogorzelski, campaign manager Chris Rodriguez, finance director Heather Whillier, deputy campaign manager Jason Rizk, director of operations Patrick Riley, and two political directors John Kontoulas and Jackson Lohrer.

Mein Kampf is a good read, the user wrote. Its very informative and not at all what I thought it would be. Its a real eye opener. Hitlers book describes Jewish people as an eternal parasite.Robinson insinuated that the years-old comments had somehow been generated by artificial intelligence, even though that appears unlikely. Although some worry that the scandal may endanger Republican chances in the state, especially during a presidential election, Robinson has refused to drop out and the state Republican party has stood behind him.

J.D. Vance (OH-R) said, Well, look, the allegations are pretty far out there, of course, but I know that allegations arent necessarily reality. Its ultimately up to Mark Robinson and North Carolina whether hes going to be their governor and whether he wants to stay in the race. Ill let them make that decision.Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said, I think whats going to happen here is that he deserves a chance to defend himself, Graham said. Hes claiming they were artificially created, adding, If [reports on comments he made are] true, hes unfit to serve for office. If theyre not true, he has the best lawsuit in the history of the country for libel. [Id] hire me the best lawyer I could find. Id sue the hell out of CNN, because what theyre saying about him is just unbelievable.When asked about Robinsons absence from former President Trumps rally in North Carolina on Saturday, North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein (D), the states Democratic candidate for governor, told CNNs Jake Tapper on State of the Union, Look, Robinson exists because [former President] Donald Trump has lifted him up throughout, and candidates up and down the ballot in North Carolina need to be held accountable for supporting Mark Robinson and being part of his entire campaign. They have been supporting him, and now it looks like folks want to run away from him.Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) called the scandal great news for Democrats, adding, Robinson is actually, hes the new dream candidate to run against. [Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris] has made North Carolina competitive already, and then after Robinson now were in the best possible situation to win.
