Mark Robinson Didn’t Pay Taxes for Five Years

“North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson (R) has been open about some of his past financial challenges, including nonpayment of debts and failure to pay rents,” the ABC News reports.

“He’s also, throughout his political rise, railed against the social safety net and disparaged those who have relied on government assistance, while on his way to clinching the Republican gubernatorial nomination in the state.”

“And while Robinson has previously talked about his financial issues, bankruptcy records obtained by ABC News paint a more dire and detailed picture of his financial and business history than has previously been disclosed — including new details regarding how the potential future governor had failed to file his federal income taxes for five consecutive years starting in 1998.”
