Reportedly, Trump has banned Corey Lewandowski from his properties and has instructed his staff to report Lewandowski if he tries to enter.

Ex-Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski is barred from Trump properties, The Daily Beast said. The ban came directly from former President Donald Trump, The Daily Beast reported. A high-profile Republican donor accused Lewandowski of stalking and grabbing her in Las Vegas. Corey Lewandowski, a campaign manager for Donald Trump's 2016 presidential run, is barred from Trump's properties and events, The Daily Beast reported.

According to the report, the request came at the behest of Trump himself after a Republican Party donor, Trashelle Odom, publicly alleged that Lewandowski "stalked" her and grabbed her "legs and buttocks."

If Lewandowski is seen at a MAGA event or Trump property, Trump associates are supposed to alert security or personally shoo him away, The Daily Beast reported.

In text messages and an email, Trump confidants were told to "remove Lewandowski (at least for now) from invitations and emails for upcoming GOP and MAGA festivities," according to the report.

North Carolina Lt. Governor Mark Robinson -- who is black, and also Republican -- defends his prior comments decrying public schools for teaching kids about transgenderism, homosexuality, and other "filth."

North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson has doubled down after his comments calling transgenderism and homosexuality "filth" drew widespread rebukes and calls for him to resign.

Robinson, a Republican, made the comments in June at the Asbury Baptist church in Seagrove.

"There's no reason anybody anywhere in America should be telling any child about transgenderism, homosexuality, any of that filth,” he told the audience. "And yes, I called it filth. And if you don’t like it that I called it filth, come see me and I'll explain it to you."

...

But Robinson is standing by his words. When asked by WRAL in an interview last week if he would use a different word besides "filth," he said, "Absolutely not."

In defending his comments, he argued he was specifically discussing the teaching of LGBTQ issues in public schools.

"That is in reference to introducing it to children in the classroom," Robinson told WRAL, adding that "in our public schools, it has no place."

Sadly, the media will not be able to run video of his speech, because they don't want to show that he's black. But do expect a lot of talking heads talking about the unseen Mark Robinson.
