Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax issued a forceful pre-dawn denial on Monday to an allegation of sexual assault that surfaced after 15 years, in the latest political bombshell to rock Richmond where Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam is battling resignation calls over a racist photo from his medical school yearbook.

Fairfax, who would be next in line for governor should Northam bow to pressure and resign, called the allegation “defamatory” and “false.”

“Lt. Governor Fairfax has an outstanding and well-earned reputation for treating people with dignity and respect,” the statement from his office read. “He has never assaulted anyone—ever—in any way, shape, or form.”

IF Arlington and Alexandria were return to DC ( like it was originally ) that would eliminate 500,000 leftist from VA voter roles.

I’m more than willing to cede NOVA to MD if they take DC too.

Again, where was the GOP on this when it mattered?

Are you saying we should actually consider 15/20/30/40 year old "charges" as a viable barometer?

When I was 12, I got caught stealing a 39 cents squirt gun from Woolworth store...never stopped me from high-end clearance for my military career even though it was a documented and provable event...maybe I only think I'm trustworthy today but nobody should leave me unattended in their homes.

Yeah, begins to look like the Gillespie Campaign had their collective heads up their a$$es! But then Gillespie as NRC Chairman wasn’t anything to write home about either.

Them's the rules the Democrats created. You have to play to win.

“Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax”

Guilty, guilty, guilty.

Always remember: It’s the seriousness of the charge.

Fairfax is a rapist and must resign.
