Tennessee Lt. Gov. Randy McNally (R) issued an apology Thursday following allegations of hypocrisy for leaving heart and fire emoji, along with occasional remarks, beneath photographs of Franklyn “Finn” McClur, an aspiring performer often seen dressed only in tight underwear. McNally said it was not his intent to embarrass or hurt his friends and family or colleagues in the Legislature, and noted that he had been unaware of the bills targeting the LGBTQ community that had been passed in the state. His apology has sparked criticism from LGBTQ advocates, who have accused him of hypocrisy for supporting bills that target the community while also expressing support for a gay man on social media.
