About this episode
In a bombshell story Thursday, CNN reported that the Republican candidate for governor in North Carolina, Mark Robinson, made crazy statements on a porn website’s messaging board more than a decade ago. Robinson, who’s also the state’s sitting lieutenant governor, reportedly referred to himself as “a black NAZI” and a “perv.” He wrote about wanting to reinstate slavery, and he admitted to enjoying porn featuring people who are transgender, despite a record of deeply anti-trans comments. Robinson denied the story, despite a long-history of making similarly inflammatory comments. North Carolina Democratic Congressman Jeff Jackson, who’s running to be the state’s next attorney general, talks about what it all means for the state’s election.
And in headlines: The Uncommitted National Movement said it will not endorse Vice President Kamala Harris for president, the number of fatal drug overdoses in the U.S. fell dramatically for the first time in decades, and video and audio footage analyzed by the Washington Post appears to prove that the coach of Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles did submit her appeal within the necessary time frame.
