Northam, Fairfax, and Herring should NOT resign. Time to stand against the witch burning, lynching mob.

Political joke

RobProvince 'These draconian rules are written for thee, not me!'

hypocrites

Hypocrites. Northam was fine with his opponent being painted as a racist. Fairfax doesn't appear to be ashamed about sexual assault. The left is scramling to normalize blackface....but they aren't interested in talking about Northams commemts on executing babies outside the womb.

What a surprise 🙄

Believing the woman is so yesterday

BelieveMostWomen BelieveSomeSurvivors

Odd. Sexual assault is far more serious than obnoxious face painting 40 years ago.

Dems are racist

William Kennedy Smith got an investigation and fair trial--why should Fairfax not get the same--Brett is sitting on the Supreme Court

RobProvince 2019, when white Democrats can get away with donning blackface because the party wants to keep power. Absolutely revolting.

Brothers gotta stick together

Well, at least they are saying they will investigate....although when investigating Democrats you need an almost impossibly solid gathering of evidence....while with Republicans all you need is someone to point a finger, even if she is only sure of which year it happened.

PATHETIC

Democrats are making sexual assault and racism cool again. Nice folks.

Kavanaugh didn’t pay for an accusation 🤷‍♀️

IOW: the hypocrisy is REAL.

Eyes On Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax To Heal Va. As Northam Resists Calls To ResignLt. Gov. Justin Fairfax could soon be called upon to lead Virginia, should Gov. Ralph Northam reverse course and adhere to the avalanche of calls – from inside and outside of the state — for him to resign. But ya`ll been telling us this whole time that cheeto man Drumpf was the racist. Why all these libs / media crashing and burning for racist / sex abuse stuffs? I believe a time-traveller is going back in time and planting evidence of White people doing racist things, it is the only logical explanation. You mean the guy who is alleged to have shoved his dong down the throat of a campaign acquaintance back in 2004? You mean Democrats don’t actually “believe all women?” washingtonpost let the FairfaxJustin sexual harassment allegation die in darkness. Now NPR ignores it.

The Latest: Virginia's senators call on Northam to resignRICHMOND, Va. (AP) — The Latest on Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam and a racist photo in a 1984 yearbook (all times local): 7:20 p.m. Both of Virginia's U.S. senators say they have called the state's governor, Ralph Northam, to tell him that he must resign after a racist photo was discovered on Northam's page in a 30-year-old medical school yearbook. Sens. Mark Warner and Tim Kaine are joined by the dean of Virginia's congressional delegation, Rep. Bobby Scott, in a statement Saturday night that says they have told Northam that they no longer believe he can effectively serve as governor. Their statement says Northam has served Virginians faithfully for many years but that the events of the last 24 hours 'have inflicted immense pain and irrevocably broken the trust Virginians must have in their leaders.' Northam says he is not in the photo, which shows someone in blackface and someone in Ku Klux Klan robes. Al Franken also called and just laughed hysterically for a solid 3-4 minutes. -A Democrat comes out as a racist: Democrats call on him to resign. Republicans call on him to resign. -A Republican comes out as racist: Democrats call on him to resign Republicans yell MAGA. **see the difference** ResignNortham ResignTrump While yes, he must resign, what kind of 'medical school' would even allow this nonsense to be published in a yearbook?
