Democrats Ignore Forcible Sodomy Allegation Against Fairfax Despite Accuser Telling Five Friends

With Virginia’s Democrat-led government set to fall into the hands of a Republican over two blackface scandals and a forcible sodomy claim, prominent Democrats and the mainstream media have largely ignored an accusation that Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax forced a woman to give him a blowjob in 2004. 

His accuser, Dr. Vanessa Tyson, said in a written statement she was attacked by Fairfax during the 2004 Democratic National Convention when Fairfax forced her to perform oral sex on him in a Boston hotel room, when consensual kissing that was “not unwelcome” became an unwanted act.

As the accusation began to pick up steam, Fairfax reportedly said “Fuck that bitch” in a private meeting, according to NBC News’ Kasie Hunt, citing two sources.

Imagine if Brett Kavanaugh said that about Christine Blasey Ford? 

Tyson, an associate professor of politics at Scripps College in Clairemont, California, reportedly told five friends about the incident over a two-year period, according to the New York Times, citing separate interviews she gave Thursday and Friday. 

What’s more, over 740 academics have signed a letter of support for Tyson, according to Purdue University political scientist Nadia E. Brown, who organized the letter. Meanwhile, a GoFundMe account set up by a political scientist at Menlo College in California has raised over $22,000 as of this writing. 

“Everything she said in her statement was exactly what she told me when we talked,” said Diane Rosenfeld – founding director of the Gender Violence Program at Harvard Law School, who says Tyson told her of the assault in December, 2017. 

“She’s not doing this for any fame,” added Rosenfeld. “She’s not suing him for money, so disbelievers and doubters can’t say, ‘Oh, she just wants money.’ She just wants, as she says, the Virginia voters to know who this person is.”

Dr. Tyson’s account was also partly corroborated late Wednesday night by Representative Bobby Scott, Democrat of Virginia, whose aides said Dr. Tyson told the congressman a year ago that she had made an allegation of sexual assault against Mr. Fairfax, without offering details. –NYT

Given the specific, serious and credible accusation against Fairfax, the silence on the left is deafening – considering that just months ago prominent Democrats such as Cory Booker and Kamala Harris jumped on the “Believe all women” bandwagon for nebulous claims against then-Supreme Court Nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

Booker – clearly grandstanding for his upcoming 2020 bid for the White House, threw a tantrum in a self-described “Spartacus moment” when he released old emails from Kavanaugh to other Judges discussing racial profiling, which backfired spectacularly when they revealed Kavanaugh was against the practice. The New Jersey Democratic Senator (who was accused of sexually assaulting a man in a bathroom in 2014 and recently materialized a girlfriend), all but led the charge against Kavanaugh over the sexual assault claims during the Justice’s confirmation hearings. 

And now, crickets. 

When asked about the allegation against Fairfax, Booker ducked the question – saying “I think we should be focusing on what’s right now happening with the Governor. I know you guys are going to try to focus on a lot of things right now, but right now my focus is on again calling for the Gov. to step down.”

Meanwhile, the DNC’s “rising star,” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez similarly ducked questions over Fairfax, claiming she hasn’t looked into the situation “at all.” 

Senator Kamala Harris has been a bit smarter about her response – admitting that Tyson’s accusations are credible and should be investigated – but falling short of calling for his resignation. 

Indeed, prominent Democrats have been largely silent on the accusation against Fairfax – ducking questions or feigning ignorance, or both.
