Georgia Democrat Stacey Abrams wouldn’t call on the embattled trio of Virginia Democrats to resign in an interview Thursday, saying they should take “responsibility for their decisions.”
Rep. Bobby Scott (D., Va.) was made aware of the sexual assault allegation against now-Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax (D., Va.) in 2017, more than a year before the accuser went public.
The scandal engulfing Virginia Governor Ralph Northam (R) was sparked by the discovery of a racist photo published in the Eastern Virginia Medical School yearbook.

Vanessa Tyson, Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax’s accuser in a sexual assault claim from 15 years ago, has come forward with a statement outlining the details of how she says Fairfax forced her to perform non-consensual oral sex on him.

As I am now writing about sitting Virginia governor Ralph Northam on a Tuesday, I’m feeling rather pleased with myself.
