On Friday afternoon, at about the same time as the news of Virginia Governor Ralph Northam’s medical school yearbook photo in blackface-Klan hood was broken by Big League Politics, Virginia Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax (D) defended Northam (D) from critics of the governor’s comments earlier this week supporting post-partum abortions. Fairfax said in part, “The attacks on his character and medical judgement in response to policy differences are disgraceful and they must end.”
Fairfax also defended fellow Democrat Delegate Kathy Tran over criticism of her bill (since defeated) that would have legalized abortion as a baby was being born. Northam’s infanticide comments came in support of Tran’s bill.
Fairfax posted his statement to Twitter at 1:49 p.m. EST, about the same time that Big League Politics broke the story of Northam’s yearbook blackface-Klan hood photo, posted to Twitter at 2:06 p.m. shortly after being published.
