Former Virginia Governor Blasts Terry McAuliffe For Backtracking On Democrats’ Blackface Scandals Former Virginia Gov. Douglas Wilder is condemning gubernatorial nominee and fellow Democrat Terry McAuliffe for flip-flopping over whether state party leaders should resign after it was revealed they previously wore blackface. Wilder served as governor of the commonwealth from 1990-1994, becoming the country’s first duly-elected black governor.
“You called on Ralph Northam to resign. Now he didn’t resign,” Wilder said during a local radio interview. “Why do you now seek his support and sought his support for your candidacy? I think it’s a legitimate question to ask.”
The former governor later went on to blast McAuliffe for thinking that Virginians are “stupid” enough to forget his flip-flop on the issue, while stating that the upcoming gubernatorial election would be decided by “who best resonates with the people of Virginia.”
“Two years ago, Terry McAuliffe called for all three persons occupying the offices of Governor, Lt. Governor, and Atty. General to resign,” Wilder later wrote in a Facebook post . “Today, McAuliffe is asking people to vote for that A.G. who served as his attorney general, and seeks the continuing support of Northam.”
In 2019, McAuliffe was among a string of high-profile Democrats that called on Gov. Ralph Northam and Attorney General Mark Herring to resign following revelation Herring wore blackface in his youth and that Northam appeared in a racist photo showing one man in blackface and one man in a KKK costume. Northam has never confirmed which man he is in the photo.
“The situation that he has put himself and the Commonwealth of Virginia in is untenable,” McAuliffe said in a February 2019 tweet. “It’s time for Ralph to step down, and for the Commonwealth to move forward.” The situation that he has put himself and the Commonwealth of Virginia in is untenable. It’s time for Ralph to step down, and for the Commonwealth to move forward. — Terry McAuliffe (@TerryMcAuliffe) February 2, 2019 Moreover, McAuliffe also called on Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax to resign following a series of sexual assault allegations. The allegations against Justin Fairfax are serious and […]

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
