It sounds like they were actually fair. They didn't find a problem with the accuser but couldn't confirm either story so they didn't print. Hopefully we see more of that going forward if there is a (R) by the name
n its Monday story, the Washington Post acknowledged investigating the claims and deciding not to publish. But it said the Fairfax statement “incorrectly” claimed the paper found “significant red flags and inconsistencies within the allegations.”
“Fairfax and the woman told different versions of what happened in the hotel room with no one else present,” the paper said. “The Washington Post could not find anyone who could corroborate either version.”
“The woman described a sexual encounter that began with consensual kissing and ended with a forced act that left her crying and shaken,” The Washington Post reported. “She said Fairfax guided her to the bed, where they continued kissing, and then at one point she realized she could not move her neck. She said Fairfax used his strength to force her to perform oral sex.”
Again I think the WA PO made the right call and its the call that any organization that wants to be serious about news would make. Online outlets are going to do what they do. The LT maybe should not have put words in the mouth of the WA PO and they wouldn't have had to respond today saying -wait, we didn't actually call her a lying cunt, you did.
14 year old accusations without proof don't work for me regardless of party. I don't see where hondo gets this a s GOP operation though. More plausible that the Governor is letting the LT know to back off on coming for his job

AOC disagrees, men in power get away with too much.

A California woman who has accused Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax of sexually assaulting her 15 years ago has hired the same law firm that represented Christine Blasey Ford in her allegations against then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
Fairfax has denied the allegation, which first surfaced on a conservative blog and was later described in a report by The Washington Post.
The allegation has come to light just as Fairfax could be on the verge of becoming the state's chief executive in the wake of a scandal involving Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam and a blackface yearbook photo.
The woman making the accusation against Fairfax has retained Katz, Marshall and Banks, a Washington, D.C.-based firm, and is consulting with her attorneys about next steps, according to a source close to the legal team. The law firm assisted Blasey Ford as she came forward during Kavanaugh's confirmation process with allegations that he assaulted her when the two were in high school.

Otherwise it’s a non consensual tea-bagging at best. I’d believe that much more than non consensual oral sex.

She's smart not to go with the dark navy blue though - that shade didn't turn out well for Lewinksy.

Purses & Scarves vs. being impeached? I'd say Billy got the worst of that exchange.
