North Carolina Representative Julie von Haefen (D)<\/p>\n
is facing explosive backlash after posting a video from a Raleigh \u201cNo Kings\u201d protest \u2014<\/p>\n
including a shocking sign of a guillotine with a head resembling President Donald Trump. The scandal has set off a political firestorm.<\/p>\n
Almost immediately, von Haefen deactivated her social media accounts and issued an apology, admitting she had edited the video to remove the disturbing image.<\/p>\n
She insisted: \u201cI condemn political violence in all forms.\u201d<\/p>\n
But leaders across the state aren\u2019t buying it. N.C. GOP Chairman Jason Simmons declared: \u201cHer posts do not show the judgment or temperament of someone fit for public office. She should resign.\u201d<\/p>\n
House Speaker Destin Hall went further, condemning her \u201cdisgraceful behavior\u201d and noting the chilling timing: \u201cOn the same weekend a gunman targeted lawmakers in Minnesota, she glorified violence against political opponents \u2014 including the President.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
