Va. Gov. Northam’s medical school yearbook page shows men in blackface, KKK robe

AriMelber Places with the racist faces Example of one of many cases The Greek weekend speech I speak From a lesson learned in Virginia (Beach) I don't smile in the line of fire... ~Chuck D

Just another racist Democrat DemocraticResponse is 'well that's not the real me'😂

Is like the kid that cried wolf. Since she lies so much, how can we believe her words and intent?

gugachacra Explica aí que esse sujeito é Democrata e não Republicano! E que ele é a favor do aborto no final da gestação! O baby recebe uma injeção letal! E essa lei foi aprovada no Estado de NY! Mas graças a bom Deus não passou na Virgínia!

Don’t know what was more disturbing these absolute racist photos of GovernorVA or the horrid live press conference that showcased GovernorVA was clearly lying about being a racist.

So has Hillary !! Where the uproar

It was 30 years ago.. I'm sure all people have said or did something that could be considered racist... Were only human! Forgiving and moving on is the lesson to learn... Growing as a person is key to life!

So he denies it's him in blackface now? So does that mean he's the guy under KKK hood? 🤔🤣

AriMelber Is anyone trying to find classmates of GovernorVA who could possibly verify that's him in photo, & photo of his M Jackson makeup? jonkarl TerryMoran chucktodd maddow DavidCornDC Isikoff nytmike joshrogin danbalz sruhle jaketapper AC360 wolfblitzer GMA ErinBurnett

The longer the Gov. refuses to resign, the more he's showing he doesn't think its worth retiring about. Which of course shows a prejudicial mind set. Show some remorse and grace Governor and just resign.

So how far this gonna go? He did the outfit(won't tell which on he is , I guess one beating will be worse than the other) somebody took the picture, and then somebody approved to have this printed and published in the Year Book. Are we gonna go after everybody involved?

AriMelber Double standards with the GOP

Northam has 2 understand the pain these pics invoke in those of us who lived thru Jim Crow & the KKK is still active. I think we should forgive him when he asks 4 it as long as he's truly repentant unlike traitor Trump whose actions suppress minorities rights.

He should resign.

AriMelber As long as people uphold trump they can sure as hell shut up about my governor!!!!

It was 1984... things were different then. Simpler.

SAME standards must apply to BOTH political parties. If Northam must go, so must DeSantis and Trump. If not, next topic.

Im confused, he apologized for it, denied he was in it, apologized some more, admitted he was in it and apologized more. What a hole to be in

Infanticide

There you go this is what a democrate looks like

Okay I hate to turn it political, I don’t really lol but I hear the left saying let this man not be judged on his past, forgiveness blah blah blah well how about they do the same for trump and all the so called crimes he has allegedly committed 🤔

I don't think he should resign. That same year Richard Pryor made a movie with the KKK and that was acceptable in the movie and the public. I am against racist . If they can prove he was a member of the KKK then he needs to step down.

I would have to take your word for it that it is Gov. Northam in the photo, but the caption doesn't look right with the photo, could be photo shopped.

Maybe someone should show him how he’d be treated by a klansmen for the next 10 years as punishment.

SheilaLoftis

Resign

i thought he was in a Dr Gosnell costume

Resign tomorrow

He needs to go. Pretty easy, he doesn’t represent the change we need

He's not sorry for being racial insensitive in the past...he's just sorry this has been revealed in the present

Ralph’s racism has been known in his circles. How it’s taken so long to come out is depressing.

Sad, but what's done in the dark always comes to the LIGHT !!

Practice Peace and Love. Give people Grace.

Drag a hundred dollar bill through a medical school, you never know what you’ll find.

Oh but it's all us Republicans who are racists huh!! But he said he dont remember being there..if that not bs...then what is...I dont like GOP racist.. but damn they own up to theirs

😡

Left, Right, middle, up or down, it does not matter. Just resign 😡

Gulag

That Medical School loves institutional racism.

I'd like to know who the editor of this yearbook was that allowed the photo to be published in the first place.

The klan, historically originated in the Democratic party along with racism and lynching, so is this a surprise?

35 years ago the world was very different.

Is this a standard that we can hold people to, will we all pass having our last 35 yrs put to public scrutiny. I dont think that what he did is okay, but for the time it was merely a tasteless joke. Today's atmosphere would require a mob execution in the town square,he apologized

The is a coo a demoncratic sneaky propaganda full of insanity. I do not trust one Democrat in the country for sure now..

No surprise to me. Democrats have a long history with the KKK KKKNortham KKKHood

And no one going to point out his nickname in College?

The entire left lauded this guy as a savior in his election. Look at who they sold you. Are you guys ready to talk about the racist problem in your party yet?

Who cares

Can’t trust these democrats

“People “..... our Media ... kissing the butt of Democrats 24/7....

And i bet that’s just KILLING those at the WaPo. Northam

Apology not accepted for the unborn babies or being a racist! Ask God to forgive you and change your ways. Then get back with us.

If it was me and someone put an obvious racist photo that’s not me on my yearbook page, I’d be doing some serious letter writing to the yearbook team...copies of which I would have to show as proof.

Now he’s denying it’s him in the photo. Here’s the thing about yearbook photos. Don’t you submit the pictures you want on your page yourself? I doubt if someone on the yearbook project just arbitrarily decided to throw a random racist picture on his page. Why didn’t he complain?

Klan gotta be happy about this return to the news cycle...

Only way for you to recover from this is make pot legal 😎 just sayin.

So... He has a picture of that on his senior page in the year book instead? Is.. What he is saying... A memento? C'mon ralphy... Way to go full dem

Closet racist and total hypocrite! And now he’s lying about it!

This is terrible, TERRIBLE. NO2Racism But, CAN WE also address the criminals in Public Office. Manhattan DA’s office commits fraud of the courts, and Suborns Perjury tactically when “Stacking” bullying fails. see INSTAGRAM ABUSEofPowerNY created for NYAG.

Oh damn! Why’d they put it the yearbook tho? That’s an institution.

Funny that the left is more upset over this than the fact the same guy suggests infanticide is acceptable. LeftistLunacy

Sounds like ClintonPlaybook DenyDenyDenyDenyDeny! CoonMan NotMeNortham

Only thing missing from Northman’s speech. - I like beer.....

I can't believe he wanted to dress like his favorite singer.....but 4got his name His wife hard to tell him Micheal Jackson's name!!!!

How can I love a musician --- dress like him? But forget his name? Habitual liar

Yikes!!! Vigina gov is a habitual liar!!!! He just told the media ,' he loves Michael Jackson!!! But HE FORGOT HIS NAME? HIS WIFE HAD TO NAME MICHEAL JACKSON!!!

Seriously!? We're ousting this man over a 35 year old photo from when he was a teenager!? People can change. Also, us Dems can't afford oust our own. We must stay united if we want to defeat the repubs and take our country back. Resist SaturdayMorning

I can’t stand the governor, but in his defense, just because he went to school and earned a degree doesn’t make him intelligent. It just means he completed his classes. Most college grads I meet have no common sense at all

The Dems are now out in the open- THE PARTY OF THE KKK.

So during the election basically looked up even what the Republican had for lunch in Kindergarden, but failed to look up the GovernorVA yearbook pics...or more likely you found them and buried them. You are FakeNews

Resign now!!!

' a photo of people ' Lol !

Tick-tock, GovernorVA. This ain't the Dixiecrat Democratic Party. You're already 2 days late for your resignation announcement. And btw, if you do deny it, don't bet on everyone else at the party being so ashamed that they hold their racist tongues. People do change. And leak.

Oh wow what a shocker! Because we all know in the fat rich white old guy club they would NEVER do anything like that! 😂😂 This guy is what CovingtonCatholic raises daily. This guy is what that school is growing for our future. HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE FOR WRONG AND IT WILL STOP

And the fake news will stand behind him what a sham

I can't believe the school would allow that in a book!!!! The school should b investigated

Agree this is bad judgement, but I also think the school should be blamed as well for allowing this to be published in the yearbook....does no one monitor year books?

Well we did forgive George Wallace, so why not him & he’s pale In Comparison

Who's going to find out who is the other guy in the picture? He is a doctor right?

As a wag observed: “The infantile RalphNortham will he kept comfortable while the morally incoherent Democrat Party frantically debates his fate.”

a young white man takes picture in black face with friend wearing klan hood (or vice versa). 35 years later is governor of Virginia. a young Black man does anything wrong in 1984 or 2019, he may lose his life, his rights, his money, and/or his freedoms—and def won’t be Gov of VA

Is KKK “apparel” really the correct description? It’s like here are some Nazis in their SS finery!!!

Oh he remembered it was him...

All the other pictures are of GovernorVA. It can be safely assumed he is in blackface or under a Klan hood. The quote is his. You should do the journalism thing and demand answers from him.

How is it that we could destroy a man's career because of a 30 something year old photo you call him racist and a hater but at the same time there is a congresswoman total anti-semitic anti-jewish totally racist against the Jews and she sits on our Congress!! you make me sick!!!

The Democratic party is rooted in the klan

A Democrat

A perfect reflection of the Democrat party...

I love when TheDemocrats gets hoisted by their own retard! lol Remember this RalphNortham et al.: You all came up with the yearbook standard to smear Kavanaugh. Now live by it. lol

Would it be insensitive of me to call for GovernorVA ‘s term to be ... (wait for it...) aborted?

EJDionne You can change laws, but you cannot change someone’s heart.

Too slow! Now he says it wasn’t him. You’re going to have to keep up!

And we will keep failing cause we are too busy judging one another than focusing on what we need to be doing. Everyone has dark spots in their life. We should only judge who he is as person now and what he can do and be willing to do. Not his past

This is why I can’t stand people. Always got to judge everyone on some stupid stuff. You guys are trying to judge him but what about the people that are pointing the finger at him? What if we brought up your skeletons in your closet? See this is we are failing.

Why does this matter? When was these pictures made? 1980’s? Was that over years ago? Seriously. Everyone done this stuff in those years. You seriously going to sit here and bring up stuff from the past and judge him on it. We all done stupid stuff when we were younger.

He says he's deeply sorry and now he backtracks and says he's not sure it's him. You can't have it both ways. GovernorVA

He should resign because he wants infantcide. ResignNortham

Donald, do you think that was poor behavior?

I have never understood how McConnell has managed to dodge this photo. Look at that smile.

Let's strain credulity and say neither one of the people is him. HE CHOSE THE PHOTO FOR PUBLICATION ON HIS YEARBOOK PAGE!! Means he likes it, endorses it, thinks it's funny & has been okay with it since it was published in 1984. NoSpinningYourWayOuttaThis

Yup

What this shows is WP & all other legacy media have an obvious bias. Research on dem pols? “no reason to dig around because there’s nothing to see here.” For republicans? “go back to pre-K & work our way to the current year. There’s gotta be something we can use against them!”

Does it?

Nowhere in the story is a racist MAGA hat ....what happened Democrats?

Oh for crying out loud you people make me sick why you got to drag up something 30 years old to try to smear somebody leave the freaking guy alone Democrats he's trying to give you what you want the right to murder children out of the womb

Who cares about calls for him to resign. TalkIsCheap On Mon if he’s still around all sitting VA_GOP vahousegop VASenateGOP need to begin processes in Article IV, Section 17 on “Impeachment” of the VA Constitution & remove GovernorVA or its aiding & abetting Dr. KKK

Racism is racism & I just wish the outrage would be the same from the media no matter republican and democrat. Sadly the outrage & action would be 100x if this were a republican gov or even a Covington catholic yearbook rather than a dem gov

But he gets a pass on condoning the murdering of babies? Democrats are sick.

breeannaaaa_ welp you Florida and Newyork can go ahead an float off

The yearbook page is despicable. But it was 30 years ago. Was this a momentary lapse in judgment? Or has this been a pattern throughout his life. With Brett Kavanaugh it seem to have been a pattern. I’m curious about the answers to these questions.

Just another day of “play dumb games, win dumb prices”

How is it that missed this. Didn't they endorse the guy ? Journalist have turned a blind eye to truth .

At least he was honest and apologize for something that goes back to his youth,we need more honest and apologetic politicians like him, don't resign

Racism and Hate like anything else is amplified when the Leader or Leadership doesn’t oppose it. When this happens, the voter, citizen, customer or business owner must speak out. RebuffRacist

But, He said it IS NOT him in black face. So...what is it?

Resign now!!!

AriMelber The Republicans didn't jump on the bandwagon when it was Kavanaugh and sexual allegations, but they sure are jumping on this one. Is one worse than the other?

Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine want to know what all the fuss is about everyone knows that the Democratic Party has double standards and that they can get away with anything even if it is racist behavior.

This proves that the Democratic is in fact the real party of racism, slavery, and the KKK.

Chris43007714 Hey look it is the 2020 MAGA OPPONENTS campaign symbol Democrats new symbol of Made in America They want more foreigners vote They see black and white like this And they know its All American from Democrats

twitter time is imprudent. rehabilitation is a core tenant of democratic values. criminal justice reform is forefront. do we not judge a man for poor humor (not remotely funny) over 35yrs ago by the life led since? this isn’t confirmation of an underlying narrative about northam

Never apologize to a ''Darky'' for the ''Darky' remains just as vicious,cruel,and nasty as you. Go to hell ''Darkie''!!

I'm wondering why they would publish this pic In the yearbook. In other areas of his life he seems to take the opposite stand. So, bit confusing as to what he really thinks, but if you've ever done something this dumb it'll bite you one day.

At least no one is talking about him being ok with killing babies after birth

How the hell did this not come out when he ran for Governor?

You're looking at the heart and soul of the Republican party.

How sad is it that democrats can look past Northam in a KKK outfit but trash Trump when idiots like OMAROSA call him a racist with no proof. What ever happened to those tapes omarosa had?

Just your average racist democrat. Get right or get left.

He's not sorry he did it, just that his constituents know

If you ran this article about a Republican it would include Rep. Before Gov.

Anybody think it’s a bit suspicious that this comes out after all the misinformation about VA abortion laws?

“People in black face” hmmm seems like it’s one person and you’ve already named him.

I really am shocked the media are covering this

We’ve come a long way since 1984. If this had happened recently I’d say he should resign. It happened long ago when he was young and ignorant and the world was a different place. If we judge others by today’s standards then Geo. Washington would be unfit to be president.

A republican would be out of office and in hiding!!!!

This only come out because he was pushing infanticide. This kind leads to the Democrats speculation of wanting kill black mother's babies. (Just something i heard)

At least now he only wears it to the meetings.

Where does megynkelly stand on this issue?

Stop cannibalizing ourselves. This makes no sense. If ALL of these same Democrats (and Republicans) have not gone on the record 2 request that 45 resign, then they all need to STFU. Check his record over the last 35 years and base it on that-who didn’t do stupid shit in 20’s

I thought Democrats were not racist🤔 like I said before both sides are sick.

What he should be worried about is legislation for fanticide... childish nonsense in prior years is a waist of time, yes insensitive and racially based.. but fanticide tops that

There’s a misprint on your tweet..... It should read, Democratic Virginia Gov Ralph Northam.

He’s a democrat- different standards for democrats. He’ll get away with it.

NorthamIsMengele GovernorVA ResignNortham ImpeachTranVa

Meanwhile at CNN they can't get even simple facts right! So much for FactsFirst Exhibit A:

Damage control headline on actual headline 🤣🤣

And liberals will be like it's okay he can change But that's not same for conservatives

good on the democrats for calling for his resignation. now it's time for the GOP to do the same with SteveKingIA and realDonaldTrump .

Like Every Democart...He's Evolved

This doesn’t surprise me. Racism is everywhere , no matter what party. What’s crazy is that the picture was allowed in a yearbook!🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

He wants the face so move on

Democarts For New Americans

So will Mitch also resign?

Oh my gosh!!!!

1984. This is now just coming out

Why did the school allow this in the yearbook?

1984, or 1894?

Senator Kaine and Senator Warner will not support not call for the resignation of Governor Northam. He feel that he deserves a pass. Kaine Warner Not Right

Being neither Democrat nor Republican, I'm trying to understand the new narrative. If Trump and Steve King are representative of ALL Republicans, that must mean that Ralph Northam is representative of ALL Democrats, right? Can't really be an either or proposition, can it?

Without any religious meaning, let those who have not sinned cast the first stone. It is the man and his actions today that count, not the stupid things from decades ago.

Byrd and Thurmond were KKK members when they young. They owned up to it and had long, distinguished careers. In a way Northam is an indictor of how the white south been changing.

To be fair, you cannot define a person by the stupid things they did while young and drunk. If that were the case I am a monster for some of the idiotic things I did years ago. But today I am a much different person who regrets many of my past mistakes.

Are you going to investigate this as deeply as you did for Kavanaugh's yearbook?

He must resign immediately. Democrats do not sell yourselves short with this racist.

knew about this long before yesterday, you just chose not to say anything.

'people' at least they weren't drinking beer

He’s gotta go. No question. We cannot tolerate this in the Dem party even though the R’s seem pretty comfortable with their racism.

Bullshit! He’s gotta go... “Sorry everyone I use to be a racist in 1984.”

He thinks he is untouchable and he's a liar and obviously a friend of our president!!!

If he was dressed as a Native American, beside a cavalry officer, that would have been just fine. White people nearly erradicated the indigenous people of this country. Just saying...

Somehow all liberal media outlets forget to put in their headline “ “democratic governor” but if this was a Republican Governor it would have been in the headline. FakeNews CNN Trump2020

Im also sorry, sorry I got caught doing things I shouldn’t have done. Oh so sorry....

yup, he’s gotta go. he could have disclosed it & maybe it would’ve been forgiven if he put it on the table and said he is a deeply changed person, but he hid it & accused others of being racist, he’s gotta go. this coming from a liberal. we don’t accept racists from any party.

Disgusting! Regardless of the reason, there is no place in America to tolerate this humor or racism. Resign Northam.

Now it is an issue? Where was the media when he was running... only when he steps on himself does it matter? Rest assured if he were a republican he would have been dragged through the mud much, much earlier. Good job ... you keep validating journalism is dead.

Ralphie the Racist, has a ring to it.

Fake news CNN said he's a republican.

Considering Dems ran things in the south during the KKK era ...why is is this so hard to believe?

Who’s the other Democrat in the photo?!

When did Governor stop being a racist? And, does he still practice infanticide? Resign marklevinshow IngrahamAngle TuckerCarlson seanhannity

I’m pretty sure if this guy was Republican the headline would have read. Republican gov. Ralph Northam. I love how you and everyone else leaves off DEMOCRAT Ralph Northam slickwilly 😂😂

Hey compost, why didn’t you put (R) after his name like CNN incorrectly did? Not until we dive into your online article that the we out this guy is a Democrat.

Funny to see MSM cover an actual racists. No foaming from the mouth from MSM or their followers as they would have had he been republican.

Democrat response to this? Well he apologized so let’s just move on.

Why now and not when he was running for governor?

TRUMP2020.

Now might be a good time for you to publish a history lesson for your readers. The Democrat Party is the party of racism that’s far worse than blackface: slavery, KKK, lynching, etc. (BTW: Did you do a piece about Northam’s pro-infanticide stance?)

Deeply sorry?! Deeply sorry?! The KKK? In 1984! Black people will never accept your weak ass apology. West Virginia broke away from Virginia for this very reason! You supported slavery...they seceded! In 2019...I don't believe one word that comes out of your mouth...I secede!

35 years ago....35!

DEMOCRATIC governor. Say it.

This educational institution thought it was ok to put this shit in a yearbook. It now pisses everyone off. I see that as progress. A lot of things changed, but a lot didn’t.

Weird how there is no “(D)” in that headline...

And here I thought my week was bad because the spin cycle on my washer is off.

I don’t see why everyone’s soo surprised. The Democrats were founded by the KKK anyways!😆

Doodisgirl This claim is verifiable, and really not open to question. Unfortunate for the VIrginia Gov.

You forgot DEMOCRAT before Governor. I guarantee you would be plastering Republican 2 or 3 times in the tweet if he was one. Selective omission that would hurt your cause is propaganda.

He needs to stand strong and NOT resign. GovNortham. He's the perfect person for the job because he has forgiveness in his heart..and has empathy for the past hurts done to AA community.

Democrat Governor, I fixed it for you!

My question is how the hell did this pass the editor of the yearbook....How the hell was this allowed to be published by the school? Was nobody at the school paying attention to what they put in their yearbook or was this ok by them

It’s outrageous!

Really? .. we’re still dredging up idiocy from people’s remote past & stupid youth.. then demanding their resignation after many years of public service to others .. guy from NAACP needs to get over himself already .. bet he’s got a few skeletons in his closet too

Senator Byrd signing up another racist for the Democratic Party in 1984.

This man is a disgrace. Resign 🙄

So what?

Who the fork cares It was 30 years ago Our nation has changed AMERICANS changed But KILLING full term BABIES THAT IS A PROBLEM

This hypocrite from the party of hypocrites TheDemocrats needs to resign, like now

ScoutMBird Democrat

You mean he wasn’t sorry until now

let’s see if the Democrats can apply the same moral rules as they demand of their political opponents. The ties between Planned Parenthood and the KKK are ironic in that support for one supports the others agenda. Rich don’t kill their babies. Eugenics - another means to an end.

How unfortunate! Obviously, as with any public figure, he should do the right thing and step down like Brett Kavanaugh and Donald Trump did when ugly skeletons came out of their closets!

This just is another piece of evidence that the democrats are the true spreaders of hatred and racism but they don’t want you to believe. That is the reason why they are always the first to scream racist. When they look in the mirror they see the true racist

Yet Blacks OPENLY CHANT TO KILL COPS and not a word is said?

PardesSeleh Hahahahahaha

Xenophobic leadership is shameful, cowardly and oxymoronic. Even if you change your idioelogical principals as you are exposed to other things, acknowledged up front and not after the fact!

But he is not sorry for being ok with killing a new born baby.

How about kick him out no pension. The governor goddam. He needs to go. Weed them out, expose the racists

Don’t stress over racism; God has prepared a special place for the racist! A just reward awaits the depraved soul. We must guard our hearts, do not hate the racist, pity them or that appointed place will be our destiny too.

He’s possibly a leader of the kkk and holds meetings at his compound. No wonder these people feels it’s ok to be this way. The politicians and the justice system are in bed to cover these types. Northammustresign

Ugh..thanks Ralph..a weekend jam packed with round tables full of pundits scolding & shaming another bonehead decision made by a civil servant in their arrogant youth. If Alabama’s newest Senator can survive the “front row at a public” comment made LAST FALL, you should survive.

Can’t give a pass on this. If he was old enough to be in med school and see the human form at its most vulnerable then he was old enough to know this was wrong. We all make mistakes and sometimes we suffer the consequences of our mistakes.

It is who he is at the core. He felt comfortable because he was around like minded people. We all take for granted our doctors aren’t racist, I wonder how many people he killed with his physician license. Worth the investigation. DO NOT BUY HIS APOLOGY He’s NOT sorry. racist

Get it over with and resign. I love seeing the past catch up to these deceitful politicians.

He said he's sorry. Nothing to see here, folks. Move along.

Photo of ‘people’ or a photo of ‘him’? WaPo lies on EVERY story

Interesting that the Dems opened the yearbook door, and the first victim is one of theirs.

watch my video on my review of the RalphBreaksTheInternet

Y’all have short memories. The democrats were the party that wanted to retain slavery, why do you think the Republican Party was formed? Even into the late 60’s the Dems opposed civil rights. Now those same people tell us they’ve evolved, time to wake up folks, do some research.

Yes, but did you hear what he said about infanticide?

Next?

🤔

Wonder what makes anyone get up in the morning and say I think I will be a Klansman or be in blackface for an event? 🤔 Is it how you were raised or how you were cultured, or is it simply hate? What is the root?

Probably had this sexy pin up girl on his dorm Wall

Well when you’re willing to kill infants, what aren’t you capable of doing?

First ..resign Second How in the hell did this get in a medical school yearbook in 1984?!?!

Typical democrat. They were the pro slavery party.

You might want to emphasize he’s a democrat since CNN got it wrong...

12Tulip3 Was he the Klansman or the black face guy? Lol we may want to find out who the other one was too while we’re at it. 😂

Why is nobody asking why the school allowed the picture?

Uh, ohhhh...here we go: future politicians of America, make certain your last names are 'Ofnazerath', 'Ofassisi' or 'Christ' before running for office! Burn all your yearbooks, your off-color comedic novels, your joke books. Fahrenheit 451, can you be far behind?

What we need is a commentary from shaun king.

I don’t like it either but has he changed?

Northam needs to resign. No rationalizations. No excuses. NorthamMustResign

What about Northam's support for baby murder at full term

I truly believe that deep down inside....nevermind! Just sad I'm sure it's more to come

AriMelber Let people change and apologized and show they have grown to be a better person to all. Please ask yourself if you are clean before throwing the stones. Let this be a teach moment.

Do better Va🤦🏾‍♀️

He has to step down

Then how are you not offended when you are seeing a drag queen? It's sexist to women.

*rolls eyes*

Billy Crystal as Sammy Davis Jr. on SNL... coincidentally, also in 1984.

Apparel? Why would you say apparel? I’m really beginning to hate headline writers. Their work is usually grossly misleading or painfully obtuse.

Omg I've been offend. Ring 0800 move on, get a life, who really cares,

opinion420 Disgusting. Anyone who is racist should not be holding public office. I don’t agree with Democrats but I congratulate them on speaking out against Gov. Northam. This isn’t ok. Democrats should also call out other racists like LouisFarrakhan, but they don’t.

He may have held unpopular positions in his youth. Does that define him today? That's unfair

Because Democrats are racists

'If' he were sorry he would have said which character he was mocking. He didn't own up on this shallow apology - he's skirting around it. What a pathetic display.

I'm really sorry! But we're still cool, right?

TheresaMechele People did stupid things 30 years ago, but my point is that he shouldn’t condemn others when he has this in his past.

So is he resigning or what? Someone please tell me. No way on earth am I listening to a single word out of this evil person’s mouth.

Resign

Can you believe a DEMOCRATIC Governor did such a thing, especially after calling his opponent in the governor’s race a racist, WHO is the RACIST? WayneDupreeShow

If Gov. Northham is either the black face or the KKK guy, then who is the other guy? A Virginian Senator now? Look under the hood.

Does it matter what the governors behavior and views are now. I think it does.

It’s buckwheat

People love saying people in these situations change and should give them a shot but when it’s somebody being homophobic or any of that nature they’re done no matter what I’d like to see that same energy when it’s about racists

1984 wasn’t that long ago in context. And unfortunately for those defending this, it compliments current rhetoric and policies from the GOP Today. It’s Clear. Just own it.

Democrats started the kkk! That’s why the democrats don’t care about this picture!

Hold on.. all you people are crying bc of what this man did in 1984...yet, (and forgive my yelling) YA'LL ARENT NEARLY AS ANGRY RE: realDonaldTrump AND ALL THE THINGS HE'S SAID IN IS CAMPAIGN AND EVEN RECENTLY? Shut up people.. stop the witch hunt and get the devil himself

Wow ...this radical needs to step down as governor!! Time to remove these undercover racists from office!

Ralph Northam, AKA ”coonman” represents the true feelings of the democrat party cnn msnbc

apology not accepted ... he is not only a racist but a TrumpFascist. Put those together and think this guy actually has a say in our lives.

This cannot be acceptable to the Democratic Party. We stand for better than this. HE HAS TO RESIGN.

He ain’t sorry. He was probably at some of the lynchings as well helping with the role or the setting up the camera. All these white folks from back then and they all had nothing to do with the mistreatment of black people YeahRight PCRP

He can probably get away for the blackface but the guy is standing by a kkk member. Theirs no joking bout that in anytime in America the kkk always killed black folks and blew up churches that killed little girls and u stood by them? Virginia governor is a racist

Features a photo of HIM!!!!

Hey Democrats if you are ever going to accuse an opponent (like Gov. Northam did) of being racist you better not have any photos of you in blackface or with a KKK hood on or your closet just might be exposed!

Meanwhile probably everyone in this entire tweet probably drank underage 😳 or smoked pot. Integrity

Why is Corry Booker running for President? Why is it ok for blacks to be racist against whites? Also,all the dems need to step down as well for being racist and murderers.

Took the right to 'life' nazis a bit to find this.

theJeremyVine Well he has apologised so that makes everything ok! just saying.DH. Democrats MAGA

Wow... where was the Washington Post before the election!?!? It’s high time to realize that the MSM is pursuing their interests, not the interests of the citizens of the country. Time to break up this cartel!!!

Correction: Not people. He admitted to being in the picture. He just won’t admit which one he was. Truth matters . You seem to just get it wrong all the time.

Is he really sorry 😐 just the right thing to say after being caught. Talk about a wolf in sheep’s clothing this guy fits the bill bigot racism

Good grief, you liberal media folks are despicable. Why didn’t you release this during the campaign - even as he was bashing his opponent for such (unproven)behavior? Aren’t you now curious as to which figure he was in the picture?Do your job!

Gov. Northam should resign ASAP. He is a disgrace to America. If he doesn't resign, he will be expelled. How's that for karma in allowing abortion up till and after birth of defenseless babies?

That Black guy second in line when he step down. KARMA😂😂😂

When Trump resigns so should Virginia Gov

Democrats have always been racist & the party of the kkk. They have been destroying the black communities for years & hide the kkk donating money to democrats.

Isn’t he a democrat?

But Democrats are the face of slavery. Why are people surprised by this

So how will eastern Virginia medical school be punished for allowing that into their year book?

am more appalled that he wants to kill babies outside the womb in the here and now than his offensive costume a long time ago. This whole thing is a narrative changer. How many black babies do Democrats kill every year? There’s your systemic racism.

Love to mention that Centrist Nation™️ spent Northam’s campaign blaming critical progressives that they were “too pure” when it came to their opposition to Northam.

Why is this news in 2019?

1984? Holy crap! Combining this with his pro-infanticide stance, and this man is all about hate and power. NorthamMustResign DemocratsAreRacists DemocratsAreDestroyingAmerica DemocratsAreCorrupt DemocratsHateAmerica MAGA

The DEMOCRAT Governor!!

Lousy

What about this guy Farrakhan that preaches to kill whites and jews where is the outrage about this guy. And he is getting taxpayers funding for teaching inmates

Yall need to remember, if you want a job in Politics do not keep a year book, or allow any photographs of yourselves.

BernieSanders Progressives called out Neoliberal Democrat Northam as deceptive ass-backward racist (Now confirmed by MSM) during Virginia's primary election & received much ridicule frm DNC...Neoliberal Democrats = disgusting GOP-Lite in actions & policies ElectProgressives

Democrats past history isn't so far behind

1984! Not 1964 or 1884!

College yearbook indicates he's an adult. Nearly as bad as Robert Byrd or Al Gore's sainted father. In libraries across the south, reporters are going through yearbook photos

...but he’s a Dem and so is the fake news media. This story will die on the vine.

Just gross. And abundantly racist.

So Make America Great Again slogans are racist ? Lol fools

BBCNews missed this oh because he’s not a Trumper DVATW cheekylatte Groundhog Day only anti Brexit and anti trump news allowed secretstranger9

RalphNorthamResign THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY DIRTBAGS IN THIS WORLD,LIKE NORTHAM. GIVE “ME” ANOTHER BEER,I AM NOT DRUNK ENOUGH TO BELIEVE I AM REALLY ACTUALLY READING THIS.

Hang in there gov! It could’ve been Halloween

What the HELL kind of medical school publishes this rubbish in their yearbook? Holy HELL!

But he’s really sorry now so it’s ok ... I’m sure the rotten ass MSM will agree so .... it’s awll good ....

Wat an ass

How does something like that even get put in the book

We should stop dragging up the past. Who can pass the scrutiny of things they wish they would have done differently. Judge by current service. I feel his message is sincere. Stay the course.

I would never want to be another race, costume or otherwise. Why though?

See that’s actually kinda funny. Blackface and a kkk being good buddies. Haters just have sticks up their butts. Seriously it’s Halloween! Stop trying to make everything so serious when the people dressing up are not! OMG calm the **** down ppl MeToo

Where are TheDemocrats calls for ResignRalph ? DoubleStandards

More proof who the REAL racists and kkk are: Democrats They just run entitlement plantations now

What about this picture 🤔 Floating around online! Can't say if it's true 🤔

ButcherofVirginia RalphNortham idiot

A Democrat? Oh nooo, tell the truth. Headlines: 'He is a Democrat.'

theJeremyVine What were we all thinking when we were his age back in 1984...get real people...

Northam should step down he is a baby killer

100% for sure you’d didn’t include D in the headline on purpose.

“People” frauds fakenews EnemyOfThePeople

Why did no one examine his yearbook photo after more than a decade in politics? RalphNortham

Not so funny now, huh?

This isn't great, but Democrats won't take lessons on racism from the GOP.

How can one argue for change and continue to remind those who have changed of their past? Where is the motivation? Not a fan of Northam. Just trying to understand.

It wasn't 1984. It was at Trump's Inauguration Party.

Classy racist! Resign!

I’m shocked you’re reporting this....

This is just a general question. How can one argue for change and continue remind those who have changed of their past? Where is the motivation? Believe me. I'm not a fan of Northam. Just trying to get an answer.

They apparently are good friends.

Americans🤮😡this is something...

“In medical school” I’m just astounded

Wait he’s a democrat?!

Being you were about 25 you knew better! That’s apparently a messed up school too!! This has NEVER AND WILL NEVER BE OK!!!!!!!

This is just awful. It doesn't matter if it was 35 years ago, Governor Northram should resign. BlackHistoryMonth BlackFace BlackLivesMatter

So let me get this straight conservatives are upset about the black face and the KKK outfit. But at every turn they continue to suppress the minority vote. And they are not upset about someone trying to rape someone.

He should remain Gov if VA is happy with his performance. More interested in his work today.

RESIGN

What do you expect? He's a Democrat. The party of original Racist! The party that started the KKK and now uses people of color for identity politics and the victim narrative, and works hard to pin their history on Republicans. But people of color are waking up.

Look at Northam's policies not at his past. If we're going to demand anyone resign, demand it of them all. Resignations on racist policies not on racist pasts.

Out with the trash.

Oh nah ✌🏾. No excuse, not the time, not the age, NOTHING. For the past 30 years, yes he may have been the opposite of what this picture depicts BUT in public service, with this issue he has to go! where has this photo been for all these years?! Please no one defend. No passes!

RESIGN. Disgusting

Get him Out Now! If he was a Republican he would of been gone last week. Get him Out Now!!

thousands of fellow human beings were killed, it’s unthinkable, intolerable. The last lunching in the U.S was in 1981, my god it should not be acceptable to deny or think light of the death of thousands by lynching and mob violence should societally be on par with the holocaust.

I was born way too soon. Do not want to exist with the bad batch. Die off already.

So sad to see this. What a disgrace !

Can we also demand an explanation from EVMSedu ?!? Northam

Hmmmm how about you change it from people to Ralph Northam is one of the two adults dressed in blackface and a KKK 🤡's hood and dress! I bet if that had been a Republican it would have been in an all CAPS head line! Dim/Liberal 🤡 paper!👌 🖖🇺🇸🇮🇱🏳️‍🌈

republicans, pretending to have morality all the sudden... makes me laugh.

Where tf did he go to school that they would post this in the yearbook? Not at all funny. I graduated well before 1984, and I can’t even imagine something like this in my school, much less in the yearbook for the world to see! Northam needs to resign.

Shall we go back 35 years on every Politician? Every Judge, every teacher, Doctor, nurse, every everybody? Ridiculous! Definitely Kavanaugh would be in that batch of folks. Donny is the worst of all and he keeps on doing it!🇨🇦

Which one is “Coonman”?

Yeah but aborting full term babies is fine.

This is who they are. This is their culture. This is what the bricks are filled with that paved America. It will be until we the sheep break out the barn.

It bother me y'all keep saying liveral this and liberal that. Most of y'all just started using the term 3 years ago.

Every Racist, no matter what parties , should be ridiculed and ' destroyed'!

That’s a bitchin vette tho

Appalling! But even more disturbing that the Medical School publishers of this Yearbook considered it appropriate to actually allow him to include such a photo in print.

You knew. You and others sat on the story to protect him.

A Democrat.

I forgive you.

oF PeOpLe

Who at the school yearbook would approve of this to be in it? Imagine all the things that was going on there if they thought this picture was ok?

This was 35 years ago, he was a kid. If he doesn't have a history of racism a simple regret and apology will suffice.

What is even more disturbing is that it was put into this yearbook

Northam was driving the pickup truck in that anti-Gillespie ad, wasn't he?

Governor *wut*man, again?

How did the editors/school allow that vile photo to be published?!

Ideally, the Racist committing the Racist Act should on their own admit the act ASAP and ask for forgiveness. Only then can a Racist reform and become a non-racist.

Dems are the party of KKK so I’m not surprised.

Don’t forger to add the (D) next to his name WaPo and Twitter curators. You know, the same way you do when there’s a smear campaign against (R’s). “wHaT mEdiA BiAs?!”

So he hates black people and babies!

For the better of the DNC do us all a favor and resign.

Strange things have happened in the past. What’s his current situation

Democrats have always been the party of racists what else is new

That's bad but it was from 35 years ago. Meanwhile this is from today.

Forgiving Racist Acts merely because the Racist Act happened long ago, only Encourages Racists to Hide their Racist Acts for as long as possible. Admitting to Past Racist Acts After being exposed as a Racist, does not make someone a Non-Racist It makes someone a Caught Racist

Here is the Democrats beloved Hillary Clinton! Ku Klux Klan! KKK KuKluxKlan BlackHistoryMonth

Virginia and racism.

So yaw wanna can this kkk cat but put up with trump? Northam blackface racist photo comes out but yaw don’t jump trump for his BS. Ijs. White man being racist? Where have yaw been. Don’t do any background checks on all white politicians. You will be surprised

Time to resign.

Those were the days

A Racist Cannot Become a Non-Racist or a Former Racist Until Admitting They Were a Racist Regardless of being US President, VA Governor or HS Student, or if It Happened Today or 25 Years Ago

Where is the outrage and disgust here? Infanticide ProInfanticide TheDemocrats GovernorVA

What he means by being deeply sorry is that he's 'deeply sorry' he got caught.

1984...interesting.

Dont know what TF everybody is so ' shocked' didnt his WHOLE STATE just celebrate a racist confederate pro slavery traitor a couple of weeks ago? And dont they have a US military base named after him

This photo was posted in his school year book, 35 years go this wasn’t a big deal...Is this real that people want him to resign?!?

Ahh leave the man alone. If we would back track all white politicians course of action the majority of them would have to resign. Ijs blackface NorthamResign kkk virginia klan Klansman

Same Virginia governor who supports child murder is now exposed to be a Klansman. How ironic.

“Republicans pounce on pictures of people in yearbook.”

“People.”

Give the guy a break - this happened in 1984..... To me, that's ancient history..... AND, besides, he is a good Democrat..... 🤓

Utterly despicable. This is not humor. Just racist and has no place in government or society.

Elite schools have a long standing tradition of promoting a culture of white superiority, misogyny & entitlement. Northam's photo published in the school yearbook. Below an article from the NYT referencing the Georgetown Prep yearbook alongside a photo of a Covington home game.

The democrats are racist

Somebody tweeted a really good point - it's so accepted that the picture made it into A YEARBOOK!!

Sure that was normal at the time...it was just about the white thing to do.

Democrats should stop and ask why they didn’t find this blatently obvious piece of material on their own candidates in the first place. No way they didn’t know. Clearly just didn’t care.

Ok...Cindy Hyde-Smith pulls some racist crap during an election and then still gets elected but this guy is forced to resign cause of something he did in the 80’s. Sounds like some selective punishment to me. Maybe Mississippi just has lower standards than Virginia.

I guess it's okay when Hillary did it. Not to mention that her mentor, Robert Byrd was a Grand Wizard. All of them should have had their careers ended. Northam dared to speak against infanticide.

Thanks Key & Peele

He should be gone!

He should resign now! Good people have never done Anything like that! I am white and that is disgusting and immoral. He has no right to be where he is. He should be gone!

So, do we pull a Kavanaugh and try not to ruin his life for things he did 30 years ago, or do we ruin his life because he's a democrat?

Take their beer by the 40 and their chicken deep fried, I think we all know who we’re talkin about...

Smh

FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!! Enough of this craziness everyone. I am no fan of this Governor at all, but these witch hunts have got to stop. You over-sensitive SJW’s need to stop. No one is perfect, words can’t hurt you & wearing a costume isn’t real life.

I’m not surprised. I’m glad we’re now aware can respond accordingly.

Lol I love how the Dems pull the wool. These politicians become Dems because they know all they have to do is spew unrealistic dreams and never actually fix anything. It’s so easy to just run as a Democrat.

His ass needs to go...

No actors weighing in with their thoughts?

So it’s ok to choose to end the life of the very real person growing in your body because that persons life would be inconvenient for you but it’s not ok to paint your face black.......in 1984? A dick move fore sure but what?

Frankly, it’s a joke that the GOP is outraged. Fake outrage. When Chris Collins and Duncan Hunter resign, he should. When Steve King resigns, he should. When GymJordan does, he should. GOPERS never resign, until they do they need to STFU.

Northam needs to resign. Beyond disappointed I voted for him. I don’t care what age you are, racism is inexcusable.

What’s the problem here?

realDonaldTrump Donald Trump is a racist. He never apologized. He should RESIGN. End of story.

Enough already! When will blacks ever stop whining? What we did to the native American indian is 1000% worse! You NEVER hear them whine! The Irish were treated worse than the blacks, and valued less! You NEVER hear them whine! 99% don't know this fact.

Republicans seem to have an uncanny affection for politicians who are white racist!

Who gives af it was 1984 it’s 2019

1. How at any age, in any era do you find this acceptable? 2. What medical school in any era allows this in a year book and why are we not holding it responsible?

I love how they try to separate themselves into Republican and Democrat or conservative and liberal. When the men for the most part, legitimately hate us. That's it that's all. Red cap, white hood or no hat at all.

it seems like those fellas are getting along well having a pint together. the governor has been bringing people together since ‘84

The Democratic Party used to be the party of the KKK

AriMelber This has been true for 35 years. And now it's news? Humna humna

I swear people need to quit being snowflakes this was from the 80s this is like going through someone's old tweets from when they were a kid and bringing them back on the person I swear grow the hell up

By all accounts this guy seems really ashamed of what he did 35 years ago and very remorseful. But we can’t forgive people anymore. We want blood because the rest of us are saints.

Disgusting!! The deep roots of racism in the Democratic Party is still there don’t be fooled by their words!!

UPDATED CURRENT INFO YOUR RACISM IS UNACCEPTABLE NORTHAM RESIGN

Well whichever school allowed this to even be in the yearbook is messed up.

Don’t worry Ralph, you’re in good company

Does Northam hold to the same racist beliefs that he had as a young man, 35-years ago? So nothing he has done since means anything, in the face of this? At least he understands that late-term abortions are done for medical reasons - and that's a rarity amongst Republicans.

Waiting on the national outrage, 24/7 TV coverage for weeks on end, Actors to weigh in with their thoughts, catchy Twitter hashtag & mass protests. Not holding my breath in this age of tribalism. This is same guy who repeatedly labeled his opponent a racist during the campaign.

Now this is racist. Not the coal miners. See.... there was never a shift. DineshDSouza. Democrats are the kkk party. Even WaPo agrees

Is Northam the same man 35-years later? Has he been capable of self-reflection over those 35 years? At least he understands that the vast majority of late-term abortions are for medical reasons.

He was old enough to know that was wrong that dude is racist

The problem is that this was in 1984. That’s like a day and a half ago in history. It’s not like it was way back when...this almost just happened.

What yearbook would allow that bs?

This ain't no school spirit shit

I mean, this was 1984, for f***’s sake. I’m not saying that I’d find this kind of overt racism acceptable in ANY time period; but how does a student in an advanced degree program in the EIGHTIES excuse this behavior? We aren’t talking some uneducated shack-dweller in the ‘30s.

RileyNYY Wooooooaaahhhhhhhhh

Resign. Yup-- Glad everyone is so excited but how about the same excitement about our President?

What if WAPO knew about this and never did anything 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Ralph Northam....true patriot🇺🇲

Don't forget that he is a Democrat

1984. When Fred Trump was still running segregated properties and not renting to anyone of color.

As Dandy Don Meredith use to say “turn out the lights, the party’s over”. Career buster

WAPO, you must call for his resignation immediately

J_Worley13 cworley65 😬😬😬

.........

I cannot believe this was published in 1984. What kind of school would find this acceptable for their yearbook?Appalling. No excuse for such a disgusting racist display. shameful Northam

Virginia- where racism was perfected

Please note he regrets appearing in the photo, not dressing up nor anything else, but appearing in the photo. A kin to sorry I got caught!

Let’s face it everyone. After closely reviewing the 1985 pic and photos of Ralph smiling. His smile DOES NOT match that of the disgraceful black face guy. So, Where do you get the clan outfit Gov. Ralph Northam? TruthMatters

If this story was released in Dec early Jan maybe he could PR this, but it’s Black History Month 🙇🏾‍♂️ bh365

It was his MEDICAL SCHOOL yearbook The dude wasn’t even a stupid kid anymore!

35 yrs ago.... he apologized. Lets move on.

This Governor of VIRGINIA is really a stupid person. He statement was discussing killing a newborn.

Hahaha oh my god what a loser.

Need I say more?

Ralph Northam, Scum.

Lord God Almighty not a democrat, say it's not so. Alas Democrats Pot calling Kettle black heh?

Why doesn’t anyone think that maybe people aren’t who they were 35 years ago? That people are capable of expanding their world view, acknowledging their missteps, learning and growing from them?

Busted!

What a way to kick off black history month nothin better than impeaching a racist satanist governor after Cuomo, we should impeach governor Ralph Northam Too.

What a kick to the gut to see such hatred and ignorance

Why did the medical school allow it?!

Just relishing an opportunity to post those pics, huh? Couldn’t blur it out or anything, huh? journalisticintegrity

Pictures of the Governor in high school. Yes, he made a terrible choice in the photo circulating now, but I know him. He’s not racist.

He should resign - no ifs, buts or ands.

I’m not even offended. So what he wore black face. 35 years ago Lol. Doesn’t seem like he’s a racist. I once’s dressed up a Jeff Spacolie aka Sean Penn in fast times at ridgemont high. I’m not racist

He got called out on his despicable disgusting true character . He should be forced to resign. Men being called out for their racist gross actions like him need to pack their bags because their time is up.⏳⏰

Hey BretBaier you missed this one.

Anyone see the irony the year was 1984

I would love to know what made him think it was ok to do then.

Hey , there's a holiday called Halloween where someone plays PRETEND and dresses up as whatever they want..

Now we see who the real racist is

They should start investigating digging up shit from kindergarten now. And recording all convos from birth in case somebody made an inappropriate joke...

RESIGN

It's hard to imagine even in 1984 that any fucking idiot thought this was 'funny'. I grew up in Ireland where (almost) literally the only black person was the lead singer of Thin Lizzy, and everyone I knew, knew the minstrels and KKK hoods were hideous. Time to go. ResignRalph

No need to apologize now. Own that shit! They are who we thought they was!

Sensitive material? It’s just the Democratic Party and GovernorVA

And this was his MEDICAL SCHOOL yearbook, not his high school one! According to Wikipedia he would have been 25, not 17.

I believe that people NEVER change , they'll become chameleons for as long as it benefit them. One day out of NO where , that lizard will become who they really are. You are who you are, you cannot suppress it forever. What ever you do in the dark will come to light.

Wow is this really happening in 2019! Why must we be subjected to the bigotry of our republican leaders!? We have the good ole boys running the nation and in the “WHITE” house! They call it white for a reason! Time to hold these racist accountable in 2019!

megynkelly was fired for just having an opinion on blackface... this man not only did it but put it in his yearbook.... I was a teenager in 1984 and I would have never dressed in either of those costumes!! NorthamMustResign

Ralph Northam and Steve King:

Democratprivilege

Yikes. Reminds me of the “Who’d you rather f*%k game”

What's that, 34 years ago?!!! Lighten the F up! What was acceptable then, isn't acceptable now. MoveOnNothingToSeeHere

Welcome to the Democrat party.

This was from his final year in MEDICAL school?

Your choices have consequences! Make good ones! FreeWill

If one is a politician they are a liar, a cheat and likely a criminal regardless of party. People are racist. It is a leftover of evolution. It goes back ten of thousands of years.

Don't you mean 'Virginia Gov. (D) Ralph Northam's'? or was the D conveniently left out?

These are people that are ELECTED to serve ALL citizens. One CANNOT do so effectively with BIAS. Resign, Sir. You are a disgrace😡 Resist

One can only imagine what the other guests dressed like. Or what were the after hours activities.

No need to resign. Being a racist at any point is an excellent way to get at least SOME pub votes in red Virginia. Contrition will keep the dems Brilliant political strategy. Probably released the photos himself

And what is Ted Danson saying? Whoopi too!

Virginia wasn't desegregated until 1971, 13 years before this photo was made. Tim Kaine's wife's father led those efforts with tremendous resistance from both the Republicans and the Democrats. We all have a lot of shame to carry. Northam needs to resign. Sorry but true.

I will have to tell my 👶🏽 in 2019 on my BD Feb 1, the Gov of VA had the audacity to apologize about his character and actions, then had the audacity to say he will like to continue in his roll after the 📸 showing him being racist. He won’t even claim 👉🏽👤👤👈🏽 that’s him.

Can we judge him by his actions today and not just what he did more than 3 decades ago. The pictures are sickening, but how does he treat African Americans today! I strongly condemn his past actions, but as a black man, I forgive him because his apologies are sincere.

donlemon maddow Lawrence AC360 *crickets*

Who cares !!!!!!!!

Sorry? Step down.

No you’re not! You surely were old enough to know better. And while you served you probably had some hidden tendencies that people were intimidated to speak out about.

WaPo was so shocked it couldn’t fabricate a “republicans pounce” headline.

Is this how the deep state played him?

Yep, this is stupid. Who first released this? GovernmentOfPutin ? Didn't that party decide to OVERLOOK SEXUAL ASSAULT AND CONFIRM SEX PREDATOR BRETTKAVANAUGH to SCOTUS? So yeah. Stop with the god damn hypocrisy....

Come on is Virginia the crib of hillbillies.

Oh please!

Baby boomers are problematic in 2019.

Career over. Wow.

Don’t forget he’s pushing to kill children after birth.

It's always Democrats.

ONLY sorry that he got caught...

I'm so sick of people having to apologize for shit they did 40 years ago. People grow and change... suck it up

Oh hell no. This is what we call a deal breaker.

Well, Northam, I did not vote for you. I voted for Gillespie. Furthermore, the Dem party founded the KKK. So no surprise here.

You know back in 1984 whites and blacks were guilty of raciest jokes, costumes, blacks called whites “honkies”. A lot has changed! No one needs to be forced from their job over 1984!! People change!! There needs to be a time limit like not before 2010!

Maybe it's time for liberals to admit that everyone struggles with racism/bigotry. Across the board.

HEY GOVERNOR JUST STEP DOWN TONIGHT. ..I GUARANTEE YOU RIGHT AFTER 2020 A GOOD PR GUY COULD HELP YOU RE ENTER POLITICAL LIFE! THE FACT THAT UR TEMP REPLACEMENT IS BLACK...A PR GUY CAN MAKE UR EXIT A NOBLE ACT...START DOING A I'M SORRY I WAS YOUNG N DUMB TOUR ON TV...DO IT

Guy has slightly poor taste I'd say.

hellnowaytogo Vote for a Republican governor in Virginia.

1984? This is 34 years ago! Come on now people!

ResignNortham

Kokomothegreat SHAME ON YOU. RESIGN. THE CIVIL WAR ENDED OVER 150 YEARS AGO. Maybe we could spend time learning our Country's REAL and UGLY history of the treatment of blacks. Let's start to learn from our black sisters & brothers how to be accepting of all. BlackshouldbethenewWhite

This totally explains why the governor is okay with infanticide. Disgraceful.

Yeah yeah, sure you're sorry

Democratic Virginia Governor Ralph Northam “The Inconvenient Truth About The Democratic Party” PragerU

What school publishes this? Was nobody concerned when it was printed?

It was 35yrs ago, you could but that costume at k-mart

At the risk of turning off a big chunk of white Americans I have to confess that I’ve never worn blackface.

Fake New tries to make it sound like it's a photo of 'people' and not the Governor of Virgina in the photo.

My guess is that the guy in the white hood is senator Robert Byrd. (D) Hillary’s mentor., grand wizard if the KKK! Strange bedfellows no?

Sorry.? Deeply Sorry.? Your true color has been revealed. You can Not serve all people without prejudice. It is as obvious as black and white. ☠️ Actions have consequences.

kylegriffin1 How does somebody, who knows that he did that and it’s published where anyone can see it, run for public office? The Democratic Party has a right to be enraged at this fucker. He was in medical school, how does he get licensed as a doctor? And we expect black ppl to trust us.

He gotta go😒

Deeply sorry? Fine. Now resign.

EJDionne He’s sorry alright and more importantly he’s a racist!

ThatGuy_Josh

Ppl are going to careless of a past photo in a few days it's the past ..but the real story is the one of abortion issue on top of this photo all with in a week..ppl are going to ? Of his heart , mind and thoughts..and link it to PlanParentHood_ 2 million later..

Wow.....he’s a real gem. 🙄

He must resign, this is not acceptable! I am a democrat, this is NOT what we stand for and we will not stand for it!

I think Northam will have to play the 'D' card... that'll get him out of this for sure. ;)

A racist and a peddler of murder while attending church ! Nice !

Prayer4VA

NorthamUNVOTE The people of VIRGINIA were cheated by a Bigot of their vote. Since there is no UNVOTE option. RESIGN OR RECALL.

How dare they go back 34 years, the guy was probably just confused. Oh, wait.

Seriously? We are judging people for costumes they wore at a time in history when it was fine, based on the political climate of today? The media is sick with victim hood.

What time capsule was this book being held? How is this the 1st anyone has brought up? 🤔

Who cares what he wore in the 1980s Seriously, people need to get a life

Noshame Disgusting Resign now!😠😤

What about the year book editor? Maybe another current day politician? What about the school allowing this? Shut it down.

Don’t we have bigger issues to deal with? Republican tactics designed w/intent to further divide us & distract us from Trump administration.

Northam should resign, and the school should lose their accreditation for publishing this trash

Please dont let the fact that he was ARMY ROTC ALSO!!! Was/is he the only racist officer in the military. Army times report came out 2/3, years ago saying they know black troops get punished more then white troops. Just like the civilian population.

kylegriffin1 He's 'deeply sorry' because he forgot about this photo in 1984.

Can anyone explain why it's in a YEAR BOOK, in 1984? This was ok in Virginia in 1984? Of course Ralph should go! But this was ok in Virginia in 1984, half those people are still alive and voting!!!

Steve King is still in Congress

BlackHistoryMonth

KKK was founded& supported by Democrats, who have been &have always remained racist. Dem's play the race card every chance they get. But Northam has said he is sorry, so by Dem's logic he'll probably be given a pass. Racism sucks no matter who commits it. W on B, B on W etc sick!

Resign. No reparations

Holy shit

WTF!!!

Our lives, a representation of who we are, but do they define what we have become. Social sins and ignorance's once acceptable by jaded and outdated thinking, principles are replaced by enlightenment through education and life's experiences . Forgiveness Change ProveUsWrong

Wow

Interesting Northam also went to Virginia Military Institute. Another benchmark along a very telling path of learning and growing his racist world view. Unfortunately, racist education is contagious. msnbc AMJoy

Why was it ok in 1984? You have to feel a certain way to even take a picture like this. If he felt it was ok then, I’m sure his regard and respect for African Americans hasn’t changed much . He’s just sorry we found out about it, not that he took the pic

He probably likes beer too

I graduated in 1982 and you cannot claim people back then didn’t know, bc we sure as hell did.

Even more insulting that he ran a campaign which called out racism and bigotry. Good God. What kind of sociopath does this?

Think about it he said let's go through trouble putting on black face getting KKK outfit for school pictures

Well...well...well... GovRonDeSantis

The incident being reported occurred in 1984, this governor has offered his apology, he was voted into office by citizens of Virginia let's let Virginians decide if they still want him to lead their state.

Will somebody get this guy out of here

Yikes! Who even published thT yearbook? Horrible. Just horrible all around.

Im just going to put this out there: if you have ever dressed up in blackface do not ever, EVER, run for public office. Your apologies and excuses will never be enough GovernorVA

Wow. Just wow. Rosanne’s show is cancelled because of a racial comment ; Northern, while an adult, can dress as Klansman and remain in office? Sadly -hypocrisy at its finest...

There were so many failures where someone should’ve stopped this. 1)Northam should not have wore that 2) yearbook staff should not have published that 3) school should not have allowed that to go unpunished & stopped the publishing. 4) why wait till 2019 to get this out? SMH

He’s sorry cuz he got caught. He was old enuf to know btr and by 25 we are set in our mindsets on ethics, morals, values. Everyone else for misconduct has had to be held accountable except the biggest offender “Trump”. No more! He has to go. I’m sorry is not ok!

mikezzz111 Isn’t this the same guy you endorsed and told your readers to vote for? You stated he was a moderate? Did you know about his KKK loving days? Did you know his support for infanticide? All questions relating to how you came to the conclusion that he was a moderate democrat.

So the Cov Cath kids should be forgiven but NO NO NO not what Ralph Northam did in high school. Have Americans become complete idiots?

He should be held to the same standards as every republican has been . Make him resign .

“Coonman”

Not just of any people, one of those people is Gov Northam

And why did this picture not turn up sooner?

Great - next, let’s get after the actors in Mississippi Burning who wore KKK costumes as well. They were just pretending too. Get ‘em!!!!!

The chicken's are coming home to roost.

RalphNortham Im not happy with what u did 28 yrs ago, but ur current history reflect that not who u r now. Im African Amer Dem woman. Im willing to give u an opportunity to continue to do the right thing. The next couple of weeks will be difficult but dont resign. Do good works!

*** AbortNortham ***

It takes a special kind of person to piss off people on both sides of politics, race and gender. Karma, man, ain't it great?

Its his right...just because someone doesnt like what hes wearing

Sorry my ass. Pretend it's a republican and make him resign

The coonman

He is a Dem . Shame is through out the Dem party

I know the GOP is salivating .... y’all can stop right now .... y’all still haven’t dealt with .... anyone ....

Racist son of a bit*h

Well was going to say something like that's how silly things were I. The 50s. Then I saw 1984. Probably just screwing around? Probably. Kids do dumb shit. No way in hell should it be in a yearbook. I know I wont run for office on the basis that I like to say what's up my Cracker.

Am I the only one noticing that a medical school put that picture in their yearbook and didn’t see a problem with it?

Was he a Klan member in the army? Lots of them were & proud our entire chain of command was relieved of duty for being Klan members and recruiting Germans;The military has made me numb to Everything.. they were so “matter-a-fact” about it ;especially if they were legacies

I’m more upset about his comments about killing babies as they’re being born.

The kkk & Robert Byrd seems ancient. This is 1984. This is today’s DNC.

Why tf is no one *also* calling out those who printed it?

Gov Northampton MUST RESIGN! ! !

Well, Washington Post, if you had done your job fairly while vetting candidates, you would have found this before he got elected. You were too busy ENDORSING this prick while you were falsely accusing Ed Gillespie of being a racist. Be better. Northam racist BABYLIVESMATTER

It really bothers me that Northam had no problem baselessly accusing his Republican opponent Ed Gillespie of racism when this photo was in his past.

Soooo people are calling for a resignation over a stupid offensive racist picture from college but not for currently endorsing the murder of infants?

“Apparel” well that’s a mighty high falutant way oh saying a klan hood and robe.

RalphNortham racist photo demonstrates the lack of connection we have towards the pains of others; White Privilege affording a white person a comedic gesture of a national shame and one he could never feel but becomes Gov of a state. It is America; both parties.

I’m lost here ... he talks about euthanizing infants and no national media outrage but a picture from 34 years ago is what FINALLY alerts people that he’s not a nice guy?

So disturbing - how did he fool so many for that long? I bet a lot of people around him probably knew, but somehow normalized/excused it. That’s why racism is impossible to eradicate - there’s been so much enabling, it’s easier to enable, than it is to stand up to it-cowards.

Resign

1984? Unbelievable! He should have known better.

Being 'deeply sorry' doesn't do shit. Man needs to be fired 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️

Classic response from the post which is stone cold deplorable. Add Twitter to the list of deplorable folks by telling us the images are sensitive. Where are these pick and choose “folks” on the other side? Epic silence !

Wtf. I graduated in 1985 just across the river in Maryland and no one would have even considered doing that.

Disgusting!! 😡 He needs to resign and never deserved that office.

Imagine the other graduates that have this yearbook, and are ok with this in their yearbook. The whole institution is racist

RalphNortham CoonMan- KKK Stone Mountain GA

Ralph Northam is a democrat and a RACIST.

RalphNortham Jim Crow MFers , He in the KKK uniform

34 YEARS AGO THIS ISNT NORTHAM TODAY GOP ATTACK DEMS FOR HANGNAILS WHILE THEY USE KUSHNERS WORK WITH SAUDI RAPE CHILDREN ENLESSLY LIE ETC ETC STOP GOP REALLLY CURRENT CRIMES TO NATIONAL SECURITY AND USA BORDER DOING SEVERE ABUSE TO CHILDREN

Where are the media calls for his immediate removal/humiliation and resignation Oh, he’s a democrat...got it

Deeply sorry? This isn’t on CNN Where’s the outrage Where the leftists?

What is it with these men and beer? Kavanaugh and Northam.

I accept his apology because he didn’t have to apologize AND he called out Trump in 2017, on the Charlottesville tragedy. Northam ApologyAccepted StepsTowardsHealing

What the f*** is that? Finish the term to do what? Bring back slavery?That’s some evil bullsh*t!

kylegriffin1 So wrong

He MUST Resign. It does not diminish his good deeds but he can no longer serve in a position of moral authority.

RalphNortham is in the KKK uniform!

So I assume Northam is a conservative now? Those pictures tho 🤣🤣🤣. Congrats Virginia you have a racist, baby murderer as a governor.

1984 Not 1934

He needs to resign. This is unacceptable.

cnn msnbc should Northam just give his seat up and directly to staceyabrams , would be the honorable thing to do

Well, you know the Dems were the founders of the KKK..

Not surprised, he won’t be getting my vote.

Karma

All this fake outrage. Helloooo. Virginia isn't exactly known for respecting other races. Neither is America for that matter.

Yeah.. it’s not “people” mofos. ITS HIM!! gawwdamm!! At for ONCE!! report the real news!!! No wonder no one trust the media now

Wo www There is something wrong with that state Why not reveal this earlier? The more you hide your darkness heart ❤️ the more people will suffer. This little man should be off the air and held accountable for those hateful racist remarks Racism is hate! NeverMyDoctor Too late

'People' was Northham. DonaldJTrumpJr IngrahamAngle

He should resign immediately, no question about it. All of the pictures are his. People wake up......

Is this really relevant?

As if all of us didn’t do or say stupid shit as a teenager. I Believe his apology Is Sincere.

What's up with the school that allowed this madness. I just think the whole institution is racist.

Well bye.

And admit the fact that the Democrat Party, was the party of the KKK who saw blacks as less human than their white people. So I call for a full reconciliation and apology from the Democrat Party.

I'd say that if you have to go back to 1984 to find something he's done wrong he must be a pretty decent fellow. (disclaimer, this article is all I know about the guy).

Resign. You are a weight on the Democratic party.

Uhhhh what the fuck? (Credit to my cat)

Fire him or you’re all hypocrites!!!

Northam needs to resign now.

The Republican Party was the party of the KKK, no it was not, it’s the Democrat Party that so many blacks are ignorant to, and the left in this country have done such great job by suppressing the truth. But not so fast, we should not get rid of the story, we should come out

Today's Democrats are as vile as when they were slavers, protecting their profits from human trafficking to the point they resist national security.

Hmmmmm, highly doubtful the MSM or the DEMS will call the GovernorVA for this...Draintheswamp ResignNortham

Most of the Dems who are running for president in 2020 are asking this guy to resign from office, hmmnnn, they are more interested in getting rid of this story than cleaning the Democrat house, which have stain the lives of blacks for years. It was perceived by some that,

Relax. It’s Friday. By Monday all will be forgiven. Or forgotten, which, to democrats/progressives, is pretty much the same thing. Northam still supports St. Sanger’s mission to eradicate “human weeds”. And Planned Genocide OWNS him.

'Features people?` No shame for the racist dem party.

Dems are Self Righteous Hippocrates!! Fakes American to the bone!

Margaret Sanger would be proud of him.

Ralph’s an atheist

This is the same Democrat party of KKK, slavery, abortions (3rd trimester) and blackface at the local blue lodge. The GOAT won’t let him explain his actions as it will expose them.

Get him out. Hell, I think they should shut down the f**king University of Virginia for allowing something like that to be in a yearbook. He should have never been allowed to be a physician. He should not even make it through this day. Same rule for Dems & Reps. Get him out now.

RESIGN THE PARTY OF THE KKK!

Wait this is out and he has not resigned yet? Again what is wrong with our country. Plus what about the school that allowed this picture to be in the yearbook. Have they apologized? I mean seriously it was definitely not ok to do this even in 1984.

And that’s where the Democratic Party came from the Klan, tell your readers the truth teach them about history that’s where they all came from the democrats.

Where was the media during the election? Oh right, they probably hid this.

Not surprised. Democrat creator and party of the KKK. Ralph Northam better learn to code. Oh but President Trump is the racist.... 🤔SMH

NoMoreYearBooksPeriod Problem solved!! If anyone has issue with this 🤔

TW0001 - TW0031 TRAITORS IMPEACH realDonaldTrump

How is this racist, but the movie “white chicks” isn’t?

AriMelber BUT she opposes MedicareForAll

This was medical school? Northam can NOT attempt to cop out with the, “I was young and dumb.”

BlackHistoryMonth Haiti USAID_Haiti USEmbassyHaiti NAACP TheDemocrats WalkAwayFromDemocrats

.'people in blackface and Ku Klux Klan apparel'? No, Washington Post. That's an intentionally misleading headline. Gov. Northam in costume.

Because he did something stupid in the past doesn't mean he can't be forgiven as a person. However, that does not mean it removes the negative impact on his party or ability as public servant. . . Personally he can be redeemed, but that doesn't mean his career can

But drumpf is a nazi?!

Sorry your Racism came to light. At least be honest in your bigotry. Aren’t you man enough to stand by your convictions, you seemed to be in 1984 !!

That was long ago. Leave this guy alone.

How riveting, which is worse is blackface picture next to a hooded kkk in a yearbook or a school that it would allow the yearbook to be published

Sad to see. What about the school? Doesn’t the school need to answer why they promoted this type of behavior? The yearbook reflects the character of the school.

am i surprised?

I voted for tomperriello.

He’s a democrat. He knows where his history came from.

Is this the part where you insane leftists start cannibalizing each other? Love it.

I believe the BIG question what has he done since. Did ever repeat this behavior? Or did do everything in his life to make it right. I say he did! Just look at his record!

Too late....

He's got a LOT of explaining to do. Don't know if he could ever explain enough. 😣

Vote accordingly

And That is why , most black people don't trust doctor's.

If the hood fits ... you got to quit!

Twitter felt the need to provide a caution notice before you see Northman's college yearbook but freely allows users to see this horrific photo of aborted fetus'? What's wrong with this country? NRA_4ME charliekirk11 maga

He's a democrat.... he'll get a pass.

findatrumpblackfacepic. Can’t someone?

First he defends infanticide and now this. What a sick dude.

Just curious if all the celebs that blab, blab, blab on Twitter will utter a single word. A racist baby murderer.

What about the school’s responsibility here?

Deeply sorry? I'll bet he is!

RalphNortham ResignNow We don't care how many years ago .... GetOut

If people who were once capable of casual racism can’t be allowed to change then America is in fact finished .

Funny how when a Democrat wins an election the liberals praise the voters for showing that they don’t stand for racism and bigotry.. hahaha .. what a joke

Almost everyone in power is connected to this shit. Nothing new. They get exposed and say they are 'sorry, i didnt mean for it to offend anyone' when clearly its all bs.

As much as I can't stand RalphNortham , crucifying someone over something they did many years ago in the stupidity of youth is WRONG!

That was 9 years before Bill Clinton gave segregationist J William Fulbright the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and 27 years before Grand Wizard Robert Byrd and President pro tempore of the Senate died in office.

The question is has he transcended beyond these views? As Oprah always says “When you know better, you do better.”

EJDionne THE GUY WAS IN MED SCHOOL AND 25 YEARS OLD!! RESIGN

I think I know who attacked JussieSmollett

A racist Democrat? Preposterous. Next they’re going to claim San Francisco is a disgusting city where people actually shitting in the streets...

IngrahamAngle RealJamesWoods realDonaldTrump dbongino AnnCoulter HeyTammyBruce Poor Al Franken was let go by his party for photo as a comedian mocking squeezing woman’s breast. THAT WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE to what this photo represents. This guy has to go!

WTF is taking him so long to resign........

He needs to resign!

This Ralph Northam photo is almost 35 years old. Yet here we are today acting as if it's been unearthed from some sort of buried time capsule.

Pretty sure one of their names is Ralph

GovernorVA - Please Please “STEP DOWN” -As an African- American Male who had “Ancestors” KILLED and TORTURED by the KKK and seeing YOU Dressed in YOUR KKK Gear...Makes Me Pissed as a Virginian - Let justinfairfax Serve the remainder of your Term!

Northam went to VMI-VA Military Institute, Home of the Stonewall Jackson Museum. Residents in that part of VA fly rebel flags today. In 1985, White males from good families in the South usually joined the Klan for social connections.

He is not going to resign, this country does not care and will never care for blacks and natives. The majority set the rules in this country, and now this country is Sh&&$T!!

Why would they do this crap in 1984? Even back then, most people would be disgusted by it. Tells you a lot where he comes from.

The same guy who wants to kill babies up to birth

KKK Northam KKKNortham KKKNortham KKK Northam KKK Northam Must Resign!

Yeah you gotta go

Same guy paid for this ad

Cam we also ask the medical school what hell was wrong with them! Why print this filth!

Need to go dude no excuses

Disgusting

Unbelievable ResignRalph

The Governor needs to resign. He picked those pictures to be in the year book. He needs to let everyone know which one was him, who the other person is and then resign.

another leftie fraud

Like conservatives care...he stole their shtick and the only reason they are using it is to derail democratic policy making, otherwise if they could time travel they would go back to the 80s and yuck it up with him. Dig deep and they have their own, this isn't about black folk.

This is obviously a gop tactic considering the governor was in the news for the abortion bill, but as usual they’ll lose the long game when he gets replaced by a more progressive lieutenant and democrats again hold a standard they never will

I don't understand why people who believe in white supremacist ideology are sorry about the public finding out about their beliefs. What is the apology for? “Charlottesville’s Root Cause” amikegreen2

Obviously, they don't go in for OppositionResearch in Virginia. Whoever missed this little Nuggets , won't be hired for the next campaign... bigot RESIGN ResignNortham

AriMelber He has to GO!!! StopRacism

Just to add, one of those people was Northam and one of his nicknames apparently was c**nman

Good. Let's keep digging up everyone's skeletons and see how the current GOP fares. Winner takes back the Oval.

I'm certain that somewhere Megyn Kelly is sitting on her ill-gotten loot, scratching her head and musing that she still doesn't get it. FridayThoughts BlackHistoryMonth

I guess this democrat champion Favorite of the Wash Post has a lot in common with racist Eugenist Margaret Sanger Dr. Mengele and the KKK Liberal hypocrites RESIGN

Sure, he’s deeply sorry he got outed. Democrats are never sorry until they are caught. You liberal hypocrites crack me up. Mammy - Al Jolson (Jazz Singer performance) via YouTube

It really just goes to show you that all white folk got some racism in them .... somewhere ....

Stop judging people from there past,heck when I was young I use to drink Pepsi,now I drink Coke,just because I use to drink Pepsi doesn’t make me a Pepsi drinker.

In the 80s this was the lived experience of People of Color in so called mainstream America. Not surprised.

I'm not sure what kind of school that is, but I do not have time for excuses. ResignNortham

But was he wearing a MAGA hat? That’s the true sign of a racist right?

You're outta here! Oh wait, he's not Republican? Oh well he's not going anywhere.

Why! If a rapist is allowed to stay in Presidency & in SCOTUS position then I don’t give a fuck! The President spews racism every day! We need to unite on keeping our politicians accountable but for their CURRENT actions! He should push policy that will help racism problem!

Fahrenthold When Trump resigns for his remarks about ****hole countries. We can talk about Northum’s resignation.

He needs to do what is decent and morally right - RESIGN!!

My question is : how did this get published in a yearbook in 1984? This would have been unthinkable at my public high school.

84? Is he still practicing this or has since grown up? THAT’S the important part. It’s shit heads like POTUS who are rapists and continue to act the fool and never learn that are the real problem.

Totally disturbing VaGov but as Dems fight to scream for him to quit, be realistic enough to know that in exchange, given that this is indeed Virginia, you will get a guy with same ideology with (R) by his name who has rhetoric and behavior today to match AND is right to lifer.

JulianCastro KamalaHarris Please leave the guy alone for once. He's not worse than all the gop guys accused child molesters, rapists, p***y grabber. You've already sacrificed alfranken with this lack of tolerance.

Wondering if the party had a “couples” theme?

dinaboliver I could say something but I won’t

Alyssa_Milano Say what?

He can resign if Kavanaugh resigns too.

Them democrats can’t help not be racist

Time to resign Gov-a-nor!

Northam in 2013 refused to shake hands with a black man

Deeply sorry but should resign ! No place for him in America !

That vile, wicked devil.

No explanation! Just resignation!

tariqnasheed

Only sorry cause the photo was found.

tkinder Starring Ralph Northam. This idiot isn’t smart enough to be a dog catcher. I apologize to all dog catchers.

Picture says Northam but quote says KAVANAUGH.....

But how would dems feel if it was a new born baby hanging from a noose? Such predicaments!

I really don't care about the antics of college students before the PC police took over. I do care about Governor Northam's desire to let babies be subject to murder at the whims of deranged mothers and doctors.

The only thing he is guilty of is becoming an elected official with proof he was a stupid teenager like every teenager that ever lived. kettle everyone

everyone is hiding something 👀

Lol look at your Democrat’s acting out moneyking55

I thought Democrats didn’t do anything like that. I guess I was wrong.

Future Leaders should make decisions that shape the future for the better. Deciding to perpetuate racial stereotypes does not do that. NorthamMustResign

COONMAN! Nice nickname RalphNortham, Racist Democrat. They always were the real racists.

real_farmacist Define irony: republicans taking him to task for a blackface pic from 1984 a week after defending CovingtonCatholicHigh for doing the same thing recently.

This is disgusting! He should have known better. No excuses!! RESIGN!

Republicans-if you don't care about or rebuke the GOP that say & do racist things, don't act like you care now. You really don't. You are just celebrating the fact that a democrat is racist too. Ralph Northam needs to account for this picture, But your fake outrage though...

If anyone’s surprised that this could happen in Virginia in 1984, remember that Virginia nearly a decade to implement Brown v. Board of Education and the US Supreme Court had to step in in 1968 because of the “massive resistance” in the state.

Step down Ralph Northam Your Finshed.

Republicans: Stop saying we're racist! America: Then stop doing racist things! LOL

Heinous picture he needs to resign immediately

Wow funny this wasn’t found by journalists oh right he is a democrat .. journalists do no research on them

Typical Virginia Democrat doing what they do. Robert E Lee was a Virginian. Apparently, it's in the water down there.

Why is nobody asking why this school allowed such nonsense to be published in their yearbook!!

His handlers are deciding which of these 2 are worse. People, the party is sporting him, who will speak up against hypocrisy. Obama and Kamala sang his praise and followers dutifully voted. Photo was not hard to find, who stayed silent? Take down statues, vote in a racist?

Where were the adults? How does this get printed?

So BYE BYE Mr. Racist Infanticidal American Pie!

Margaret Saenger would be proud.

RalphNortham must apologize to Ed Gillespie for calling him a racist in his resignation letter. UndocumentedInfants

I wonder how double standard this'll get. I wonder how little we'll hear about this in comparison to Kavanaugh's big GIANT NOTHING highschool years. But he raped someone. How do you know that? Cause she said so. Isn't she a liar? yeah, but that doesn't matter. 🤨ooookaaay

If you are a Democrat trying to defend this you are just as bad as trump and his cronies. We must hold ourselves to a higher standard. He needs to resign immediately.

Who's the editor of the yearbook SMH

He was just celebrating the proud history of Democrats in the South throughout history.

I was 5 years old at the time and now this is a big issue?

Poetic justice

Two days ago he said he thinks it’s ok to literally kill a live baby. Media and Dems cover for him. Now a vile picture shows up from 35 yrs ago and the pitchforks are out.

Tell him Bennett College is calling BlackHistoryMonth

You know what’s really sad? That this was so acceptable it was put in a high school yearbook!

lol

Outrageous display of Hate. Resign mr.hater 🤥

in order 2 correct the power imbalance, we must b willing 2 concede power as appropriate he is hiding behind the concepts in the photo coward

Just because you call it out just because it’s politically incorrect the very unfortunate truth is that there a deep hidden silent streak of racism across this country that only gets deeper and more silent in our society.

So we’re COOL with the medical school thinking it was OK to publish racist photos in the yearbook 👀

Dude needs to resign already

In the continuing tradition of Robert Byrd and the Democrats - if it’s one of ours, let’s just overlook it.

This wasn’t even that long ago. Who was this racist in the 80s?

You don't need to see his yearbook photo. These aren't the racist Democrats in blackface and white sheets you're looking for. Just go about your business. Move along... Northam Virginia vademocrats VA_GOP

He needs to resign. NorthamMustResign

The governor thought it was 😎....time to RESIGN Gov UGHH😠

You know, if it weren't for double standards, the Libtards would have NO standards at all!

This is delicious 😋 the Party that calls everyone opposed to its policies racist is totally exposed 😂🤣

I mean .... you can’t make this shxt up ....

Unbelievable. Goodbye GovRalphNortham Shameful!

Democrat here, this mf needs to resign. Like yesterday. Completely unacceptable.

He was an adult when he did this.

He must resign.

1984...Blackface and a Klan outfit?! GTFO and this guy is still walking the halls of the Virginia Governors mansion. TheDemocrats score! GovernorVA RalphNortham

STEP DOWN

No wonder Planned Parenthood donates so much cash to this guy.

He’s got to go. Now.

Are you & Ralph Northam trying to make TwiztedComicz horny? RalphNortham Virginia

Pretty sure this was racist and unacceptable even in 1984.

Why is this just now coming out? GovernorVA first ran for public office in 2007.

Now we know what babies he wanted to kill after birth.

It's a Halloween photos relax

So? We have a racist president and I don’t see you guys are asks by him to resign. Please GOVERNOR OF VIRGINIA DONT LISTEN the right wingers whom are doing all this to distract us from the Trump’s failed corrupt Administration. Trump is 1 racist

What the actual eff is wrong with people that they would think this was okay? And in 1984? 😱

Yes. Now do a big photo splash on SteveKingIA

Isn’t this what Dems do?

This is the guy who called Republicans Conservatives racist over and over again during his campaign?

35 years ago, really? Did he get into any fist fights when he was in grade school

Not only that, he's also requesting another beer in the comment below the photo. Oh, the Hypocrisy of the Democrats. rememberkavanaugh

YOU endorsed him.

Yeahh sorry liberals. You can't be for tearing down confederate statues and claim moral high ground and keep this guy arouns

Since the governor didn’t explain I’m now left to my imagination as to the context of the photo.

No wonder the left is sooooo silent about it. They’re DEMOCRATS! Heck they gave Jimmy Kimmel a whole show AFTER he blackfaced Karl Malone and MOCKED his intelligence! Yeah they’ll keep him....watch!

This is beyond disgusting and he should resign immediately!

Hirschfeld4VA Yeah, he's sorry alright...a sorry excuse for a human being!

Too bad the party leadership supported him over Tom Perriello. Did no one look at his old yearbook?

Leave him alone. He should NOT resign.

ElaineLuriaVA JenniferWexton RepSpanberger

I finally agree with post-birth abortion - only for these two though.

A Baby Killer is also a member of KKK, I’m shocked !!

Ruh-Roh

Democrat or not, Republican or not, this is unacceptable. He will resign. Now. Can we discuss RogerStone and DonaldTrump in orangeface ? Or are they trying to be brownface ?

No one found this during the VA governor's race? No one vets their candidates now?

Am I supposed to be shocked? I'd be shocked if he ran the 40 in 4.5 seconds

No excuse, he must resign now.

Headline obscures he's not in the picture.

He has to resign. It's bad enough to know that Democrats were the ones who were lynching us back then and we still forgave them because of them bailing MLK out of jail. They were forced upon us. At least now we have a voice and can choose who we let represent us.

I do not understand how something this racially egregious is just now being discovered? This guy is a governor for goodness sake! That said, resign, go the fuck away and never come back.

Someone go through Ron DeSantis’ yearbooks

That explain a lot about his view on infanticide. The NAZI has the same system, ‘discussions would ensue between the physicians and the mother’ (though heavy handed) if infant with birth defects and give them a lethal injection. Apparently Northam has admiration for KKK...

Luckily he was a Democrat and got a free pass by the media...oh boy can you imagine if he was MAGA?

. Meanwhile Liberals call President Trump & Republicans Racists

Funny how, in stories like this, the Post neglects the mention this governor is a Democrat. If this was a Republican, it would be in the headline.

Surprised the headline didn’t have something like “but maybe not him. we can’t really tell”

Bottom line! He Needs to Resign. Corrupt Racist Democrat Obstructionist.

Oops, are you going to hold this racist Northam To the same yearbook standard as Kavanaugh for his yearbook drinking games? Hello WaPO.

It was a freshman mistake. Lol

Why would GOPs want him to resign, it's just like he's one of them. He fits in perfectly. 😏👌

In the 1980's and 90's MANY racists & conservatives in the South launched a racist verbal attack against the Democratic Party to win white Democrats. It worked well. The fact that Virginia Gov. Northam stayed loyal to the Democratic Party leads me to think that he is truly sorry.

This is unacceptable and Gov Northam should resign. That being said, the same standard should be held for senatemajldr and this disturbing pic. Hey GOP, do you have as much outrage for this as for Northam’s pic?

I see a law in the future requiring presidential candidates to release their yearbooks

Why would he step down? Jimmy Kimmel also was in black face. However Megan Kelly was fired for even asking about black face I guess it's ok to be racist if you're a liberal.

If someone doesn't feel enough shame to step down after that, are they really anything other than a white supremacist?

Everybody wanna be black until it's time to be, black. NorthamMustResign

He needs to Resign Stat

Horrible! When you do something like this, it shows your truth heart. When you insult another race of people, should you be in a leadership role where you lead a diverse group of people? No!

Democrats will be Democrats....

He has to resign asap

Apology accepted! Forgive and forget ASAP! While conservatives are forced to resign or get indicted for nothing, racist Democrats like Ralph Northam only need to say nothing or, on rare occasions , make an apology and keep their jobs.

He ADMITTED he was one of them, but which one? Maybe investigate wapo? Report some truth for once.

you should have tagged him in this post

...then there’s all those ThirdTrimester abortion of baby’s including AfricanAmerican BABYLIVESMATTER Infanticide AbortionLaw SaveTheBabies AbortionIsNotHealthcare Virginia DemocratsAreRacist Powerball puppybowl WWG1WGAWorldwide SuperBowl DefundPlannedParenthood

He's not sorry …. He's only sorry he got caught

Ahh the sweet karma! Got him so good! 😂😂😂 He might as well say goodbye to his political career after all that happened in the last few days! 👋🤣👋

'Democrat' is missing. I assure you if it was a Republican it would be in all caps. Blatant bullsheet I say

I’m officially announcing February 3 as National Black Face Come Out Day. All white people who have ever ‘dressed in, have pictures of, or partied in’ black face please come out & admit it because I’m so seriously sick of this s***.

The school is responsible for allowing this behavior from their young students.

Screw him then

At least he wasn't wearing a MAGA hat... right Alyssa_Milano ? 😂😂😂😂

Maybe he should just say it was a drinking game?

The irony..... via YouTube

The Left promises equality and equity. The RESULTS of their policies are poverty and segregation. Look at any major city where Dems have reigned for more than a generation: minorities segregated and economically enslaved to the Gov't. True institutional racism.

Hitler school of medicine?

A Democrat what a shock!!! That makes sense since the Klan was born through the Democrat party

Just saw this and this guy is something else for a 'nice' guy 😳😳

Not surprised.

Good to see everyone finally on the same page disavowing this behavior, but I wish Republicans cared this much when a pedophile ran for senate. Or when it’s a Republican in the same position as Ralph this time.

FL Republican Secretary of State resigned last month over a photo of him in blackface.

I’m a liberal. Dude, resign. Our nation needs governors who didn’t wear blackface or klan outfits.

1984 is not that long ago. How could Northam not know how offensive they were and would be years later? That said, if a pussy-grabbing, mistress-paying SOB can stay in the White House, I’ll give Northam a chance to work his heart out to make up for this.

South Carolina had the confederat flag flying over their capital a couple years ago, Mississippi still does

This was less than 3years after The lynching of Michael Donald in Mobile, Alabama in 1981. How did he think this was funny? There is a serious error in his thinking

Think it's terrible but all the Republicans delighting in this might want to remember there's probably some really bad pics of them in a drawer waiting to come out.

Now we know why he loves abortions.

Fahrenthold If it’s Not him. Who?

No surprise, expect nothing to happen awaiting the next scandal in 2-3 days.

Wait that was him?

Resign

because it normalizes & institutionalizes white supremacy racism is just one more reason why the NFL sluRskins must change their name FedEx Field!!

Your past belongs to you. OWN IT!

Idiot.

When did he part ways from his racist thoughts? When did he stop seeing the humor of this dark nightmare in the US

'Ralph Northam' RalphNortham Your PICTURE with those 'racist creatures' The Klan and 'Black racist FACE' MADE ME ILL for over 12 Hours + The White Klan dressed Like U Killed my family all children in 1964. NO WAS PUNISHED PLEASE RESIGN I will be ill again if U don't

Has Ralph Northam resigned yet

It’s just been proven that DemocRats are the most racist, big mouth-lying, cheating people! Megyn Kelly got fired immediately for just mentioning it. How’s about this Rat?!!

Another racist Democrat. Nothing surprising about that. The most surprising us that the press is actually covering it a little.

35 years ago. Dukes of Hazards with the General Lee was on broadcast TV. Things were just a bit different back then

I am simply questioning the schools culture for allowing such an image .. It is obvious, it was the consensus

There is no room in America for this kind of behavior

No excuse. I was in college in 1980 it was wrong and still is.

You get it yet? Those saying they're 'good' saying everyone's racist, they are the ones you need to watch out for. It's the people who tell you exactly what they think even if you don't like it that you can trust.

Hello the Dems were the original KKK!

Okay, THIS explains everything I ever needed to know about this Virginia governor. RECALL! Time for him to be booted out.

Do you still think Democrats are youre friends?

No hate! No KKK! NO RACISTS IN VA! impeach resign racisimisnotajoke

So...how many journalists is Wapo dispatching to determine if the Gov was the blackface guy or the klansman?

He ran for Lt Governor and Governor and you suppressed this? Or are you that bad at your profession? Or, is suppression your profession?

The WAPO printed the pictures on their paper? they most have got an ephifamy.🇺🇸🇺🇸

Yeah the GOP isn’t the party of racism at all. JC. One of oh so many.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooof course he did

Just let him be delivered and see if he survives. If not the doctor can abort him.

Disgusting to have to pander to the GOP base!

What the big deal. The dudes ok with baby killings.

Me: waiting on Vox or Snopes to come up with believable excuses for this mans story to save FACE for the Democrats..🔜🔙🔙🔙

Shocking! A racially insensitive white man from the South! RalphNortham whiteprivilege

It’s ok he’s a Democrat so it’s only a joke.

You have to resign RalphNortham . We can’t pretend that democrats have a better plan for America if we can’t hold ourselves accountable better than republicans. Let’s not say we are better, let’s just be better

Well, well, well...Racism and Infanticide. Virginia and its DemocRATS must be so damn proud of their Governor. RalphNortham Northam ResignNortham Ralph Blackface Klansman Politics Democrats BREAKING News BlackHistoryMonth WheresRuth RBG SCOTUS MAGA TRUMP

I'll be he gets off with about two seconds in the news cycle

Exploiting hate. What the press does best.

So if you look at the picture, Northam is 6ft. The Klan guy looks shorter in the picture compared to the person in black face who I believe to be Northam. RalphNortham I believe you should resign as governor. It doesn’t matter if it was a mistake.

Governor Northam must resign.

lol what a kick off to black history month 😂😂😂

This type of conduct was inexcusable even in 1984. Today, it is downright shameful and totally unbefitting a public servant. This man is fundamentally unqualified to hold a governorship. resign

You mean, Republicans didn’t “pounce” this time?

Who gives a flying Fu!?Give me a damn break! What’s he done since then?Become a Docotor and Governor! This is the worst you got?Let’s focus on governing and not hung up on 30yr old B.S.! Maybe we should judge everyone based on their drunken frat days?!

All I hear is crickets... Where is the tar&feather trollpatrol ?

This has been 35 years ago. We have a Govenor who cares about people and some folks have a problem with this. The Bible says, 'Let he that is without sin, cast the first stone.' John 8:7. Who will it be?

It won’t phase those with double-standards. They will excuse it smh

Why ppl mad? He is a democrat ,democrats created the kkk ..he was only representing his party !!!

Give me a break. Really going back to 1984 to cry racism?

Resign! You’re a terrible person RalphNortham and unworthy of any elected office. No excuses. No apologies. Resign immediately!

Are we now a country full of judgment doesn't the Bible say judge not Les you be judge we are all sinned and come short of the glory of the lord that is why we all need Jesus because we all are full of sin forgive

Ohhhhh shit KamalaHarris LOVES this guy too

A Paula Deen moment.

If he doesn’t care about blacks and he doesn’t care about babies, imagine how he feels about black babies.

DemocRATS are the real racists here... Too bad many people are brainwashed into believing otherwise. SMH

Bye Felicia!

Democrats are still the party of the KKK... BLEXIT

Which one was Northam...the blackface or the KKK...he must resign...these actions run deep ResignNorthamNow

But boofing was a national emergency.

He must resign!

The back peddling that the left will do in regards to the story will be monumental.

AriMelber Most of the ppl in our government are decades older than my rights as an African American..... so why is this surprising? U know, racist don't have a political party, but some politicians are racist. DoSomething

JFC This isn’t news to People of Color Racism persists in this country and White People need to STOP NOW! I am a white Person btw that is sick of this ignorant hate!

Deeply sorry he got caught?

Glad they clarified its a conservative site 🙄 Time to see if the Democrats put their money where their mouths are and if they really practice what they preach

Lovely.

Virginia Democrat governor Ralph Northam refused to shake the hand of his black opponent E.W. Jackson during a 2013 televised debate in the Virginia lieutenant governor’s race.

Oh that’s a ok bye.

This proves it...his supporters are all KKK

If this is real, he gone...

White male from the south racist?! What are the odds....

SteveKingIA realDonaldTrump

Man, I don't know which one I'd say is me😲 I'd have to say prove it! Idk. That's f'ed up.

This has got to be a joke. Some guy did something off color 35 years ago in a State where it was likely accepted at the time. Now everyone busts out their torches and pitchforks to make him resign? I'm not saying it is okay, but he probably wouldn't do it in todays world.

L 0 L Everything is soooo offensive for the left and especially blacks until it comes to their own behavior and blunt (politically incorrect) everyday stereotyping\\jokes etc. towards white ppl. I really couldnt care less. Get over it

CoryBooker, KamalaHarris, what say you? Please don't ignore this because it is fellow Dem.

Busted ! Black faced and next to hood! Democrats will sweep it under the rub and it’s ok. But if it was a republican there would be a riot

Uh oh. Not good for a Republican & to be expected, generally speaking. But absolutely inexcusable for a Democrat. Mind you, he might have been a Republican at the time. I was a Republican once upon a time, before I came to my senses. Uh oh.

Racists in VA in the mid-80s. Imagine my surprise.

This could have a different interpretation of an aspiration by the governor for the people of color and the KKK to co-exist peacefully in the future

Let me get this straight...Virginia voted for this RalphNortham and HillaryClinton? And the Media claims POTUS voters are racist?

Wasn’t Megyn Kelly a kid in 1984? She told it and got fired. This guy WORE it and still holds office. Nobody notice. megynkelly imissmegynkelly

BillWeeks19 Resign now racist !

Where were these photos before he became governor?

Kokomothegreat Sorry, too late

He needs to go !

Good lord, it was 1984! Let it go...

He didn't say which one is him. If he's in the klan costume, it's over for him right now.

The roots of the Democrat party

The democrats started the KKK and planned parenthood to kill minority and other “undesirable” populations , so Virginia elected a democrat in their old South tradition

But I heard 'Virginia was for lovers' 🤨

Say hello to the democrats. Is this really a big surprise to people? LoL.....ummmm.....DEMOCRATS WANTED SLAVERY. They prey upon african Americans and act like they give a damn about them but this right here if how they all are behind closed doors.

Damn... I thought democrats were all woke:/

Oh the democrats and their ties to the KKK.Terrible sin they have never apologized for. Amazing how deep the roots of racism are in the DNC.

BTW — he doesn’t wanna tell us which guy he is; so he’s prob the guy in the KKK robe! He KNOWS that is worse!

ugh

The true face of the Democrats

It gets better! More digging revealed his nickname there was Coonman

This wasn’t a high school yearbook picture... this man was in MEDICAL SCHOOL at the time! Time for Democrats to look in the mirror. The dnc is the party of identity politics, racism, and bigotry.

Black and Hispanic women account for 55% of the abortions in the US while only being 29% of the population - maybe this yearbook picture helps explain Northam eager support of abortions, uh, I mean infanticide.

I’m s liberal and he must go for his racist attire.

He must resign. He’s not capable of being a Governor.

I’m black — and you know — the blackface is bad; but the fact that he’s embracing a guy dressed in KKK garb is WAY worse, to me. Even if he can explain away the blackface (impossible in Ol’ Virginny, tho) no way in HELL he can explain away embrace of a klansman in his regalia!

Wreck it Ralph: Career Edition WreckItRalphNortham VApolitics VaGov CNN donlemon

There's so much wrong with this. There's no option here but to resign. Go now and make no excuses please.

But he was just a boy... wait for it.

Well, one skeleton got out.

“People” being him and another guy he won’t identify. Don’t let the pile of Virginia taxpayers’ money that he just gave Bezos (your owner) influence your coverage.

TrumperAZ Waiting for the Mueller drop on Friday nite... might have to go deep into the bench and indict JR to get this Democrat stink off the pages...

RacismDog

Happy Black Heritage Month, Gand!! RealCandaceO The REAL Democrat party rears it’s real ugly head! Thank you for all you do Candace. God bless you. Let’s put a pin on this.

Don't forget about the 'smirk'... Damn democrats.

I would hold any Republican accountable and I’m holding Northam accountable. Country Over Party. ALL THE TIME. NO MATTER WHO. PERIOD. He must resign!

What school allowed this? Sick. I’m a leftist, and I think this is fucking wrong I don’t care what political party you.

Everyone relax...so he is a racist baby killer...we have a good Democrat Governor over there in the common wealth and we need to forgive him.

rolandsmartin Integration is an illusion! Segregation & exploitation is the reality! SEPARATION is the only solution to the race problem in America & abroad! BlackTwitter Africa Cameroon CentralAfricanRepublic CotedIvoire Djibouti Lesotho Liberia Libya Mauritania Morocco Mozambique

Let's keep him 'comfortable' until we decide what to do with him!

WTAF. The fact that he apparently wore this stuff is awful enough. But that the institution was just fine with publishing it is seriously galling too.

Had this been Trump you would all call for an Impeachment. You need to resign.

Democrats will want to run him for president now. He is just who they are looking for.

First the late term abortion and now black face and kkk hood. I guess DNC dem really are the racist Still want to know whenDoBabiesGetHumanRights

I voted for RalphNortham. He needs to resign immediately.

Lest we forget the Kavanaugh exercise we did months ago. Everyone, no matter what political affiliation, have shady shit in their past.

Democrats history for slavery comes back to bite VA gov in ass - poetic justice! Maybe the unborn can rejoice when he does honorable thing and resigns. VAGOPCaucus

Not a good look matter of fact ol Ralph should be embarrassed and ashamed of himself

Toast

This is disgusting!!! 😡😡😡 Waiting for Democrats to denounce RalphNortham and DEMAND that he step down!!!

Cernovich But..... Trump is a racist

A main point not being discussed is that the outcome will set a precedent. What is the precedent people want in place as dated 2019?

Cernovich The racist should resign

He will get a pass after a fake contrition Bill Maher day the N word from time to time on his tv show liberals get away with everything

DrGabbyMiller

Awesome vette!

Why didnt you find this when he was running for governor

This isn't who we are. I'm so disappointed in the Democrat for supporting racism

This will be swept under the rug because he’s Democrat & wants to legalize 9 month abortion... wait & see

When people are overly defensive they’re hiding something. Democrat

Staying in office would help Trump.

Lol....can Democrats say “egg on face...”

So he resigns. Anti abortion nut cases whobthink that this will affect the recent laws are sadly mistaken. Actually those operatives are evil doers. worse than the Guv.

Y’all didn’t have much to say when he was advocating murder of disabled, but face paint? Yeah, unforgivable.

Al Franken had to resign over a lie - this man should resign NOW.

Alright Libs. You guys were all ready to string up a bunch of kids. Let's see you eat your own. Bon appetit!!

AriMelber He's a Democrat, so it'll be fine.

Not only is Northam a homicidal maniac who supports infanticide, but he's also a racist.

This is forever

Welp, I'm ready for a Gov. Justin Fairfax. 🗳🇺🇸LGJustinFairfax Ralph Northam, you've let us all down. YOU WERE A GROWN MAN. Was it funny (It's not funny.) Were you serious (You've got to go.) RalphNortham GovernorVA Also: what type of school publishes that photo

Who cares. He was a kid. Kids do stupid things.

And that’s it? I’m waiting for your op ed calling for his resignation.

AriMelber So people can't change,look at LBJ...1984 is really digging crap from long ago. This muck raking helps no one but those who feed off of discord.

1984. Not 1948.

😂😂😂 what will TheDemocrats do...?

But but but the Democratic Party is against racism and slavery right 😂😂😂

democrats = kkk read your history =

I guess we’re taking those pictures out of context too huh.

The governor admitted he is either the blackface or KKK person in photo. RalphNortham Virginia

Any Democrat who defends this is a hypocrite! As a Democrat I am disgusted by this and GovernorVA should resign ASAP!

Well at least RalphNortham had the blackface & KKK sharing a beer together.

He says in his “statement” that one of them is him as he apologizes his butt off. The only rational and logical outcome is resignation. BUT....I suspect that you and his DEM friends will “forgive” him.

No, it's certainly totally random people, and not, you know, Northam himself On his personal yearbook page

AriMelber There is a huge difference between dress up as a vent for stress among med students and everyone including children. It’s a way we integrate and learn Aometimes mock admittedly but it isn’t any more real than your movies or video games

CaliKush2017 Truly disgusting!

Which one is him

Which people?

the new face of abortion?

Disgraceful, disgusting

Abort him from office!

Photo is over 35 years old! Juvenile?, yes! But this is NOT Northam today, unlike SteveKingIA! Do not resign, GovernorVA.

Tim Caine will keep him comfortable.

His name is on the top of the page so what is he a KKK member or Black Face?

Also,3 wapo reporters describe northam's week in which he said killing full term babies was ok and dressed as a klansman or in blackface as 'wild.' Not sick or racist. But wild.

We may never know who they are. Let's move on. Remember, democracy dies in darkness.

AriMelber Thats not the Virginia I know. 🤣

AriMelber Satan sure is sneaky.

AriMelber Could someone find out who the 2 men are before posting this all over the internet? If it’s him then post post POST.

Fahrenthold Disgusting!

Ok. Northram’s resignation for Kavanaugh‘s. Fair is fair

So much racism in the north states

imau2fan Hey WAPO, how did your researchers miss that when he ran for Gov. YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THEN LIBERAL shills. Media branch of Dem party. close your doors

Womp womp. Where’s his red hat?

'1984'

ebony and ivory...

Call him out right now DEMS, he might have changed but must face his past still.

I’m surprised you didn’t start this off with “Republicans pounce”.

A yes, the party of murder and racism. DNC-KKK never fails to entertain...

Fahrenthold Definitely not surprising from a republican politician, or just a republican for that matter.

AriMelber Read the article. It is unclear if either man is Northam.

Hmmm. DNR

Democrat or republican this is not right. Why don’t white people know this Why do any of you feel the need to dress up in blackface? Do you want the black experience. Because we can give you that.😡

And it shouldn’t be easier to have a third trimester abortion. It should have rigor.

If he’s one of the two he needs to resign!

Funny how nobody would go near this during the campaign. But I’m not surprised at all that anyone who would normalize extreme hatred against people for being a different race would normalize the dehumanization of innocent children.

What does Dianne, Cory, Kamela, et al have to say about this...

Thanks, I wanted Justin Fairfax to be Governor, anyway.

Absolutely incredible that the word “Democrat” does not appear in the entire article. Just “(D).” Haha

Somebody should have revealed this earlier. That is all.

The one in the KKK sheet is probially Sentor Byrd D aka as a recruiter for the KKK.

We're going to keep his infantcy governorship comfortable, until the mother can decid if she wants it resuscitated...

And if you defend Ralph Northam, you are a racist too.

He will never participate in Halloween again.

Racist

The vomit media and the vomit people they protect.

AriMelber This isn't acceptable at all.. but the feigned outrage from Republicans who voted for a racist xenophobic sexual assaulter is rediculous.

The south is really different. My 1969 NYC high school yearbook says WTF! I find this abhorrent.

RalphNortham GovernorVA Resign you hypocrite. Do it now. KARMA

What kind of medical school publishes a photo like this in the yearbook? Virginia is racist af.

No one in his entire political career saw this until now?

well, at least that's ONE democrat that won't be running for president.

GreatDismal Oh my god...could it be that the ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY are racist shitwits

just went ahead & assumed racist Gov was a Repuglican. Even Dems are afflicted with this BS.

kylegriffin1 1984!!! Nineteen-Eighty-Four! Seriously, not the 1930s (better if never), but seriously, 1984!

Resign

But, Orange Man Bad......

AriMelber Where now is the much bally-hooed 'nuance' espoused on behalf of Sandman?

Would you have said REPUBLICAN Governor if he was a republican? We ALL know you would have. Nothing to see here. Just another Democrat going back to his roots.

Blackface is a display of a racist's imagination.

Watch Our Videos and that is Send Shark Auto Responder on how to monetarily be rewarded means of attracting Business Associates to Enroll 100% FREE TODAY facebook

I'm sure he's not the only racist

AdrianaCohen16 Who cares! They were at a party. Other guests dressed up as well. You can’t kid around about anything today. In truth if I resent anything about this guy, it’s the fact that he’s a Democrat that represents the absolute worst in our country. The bill this louse signed is murder.

Republicans: He wore blackface, KKK, and wants to kill newborns Democrats: Yeah, but did he smirk though?

And in classic Washington Post fashion, they cover this story by depicting the exemplary character of Northam, even his closest colleagues said that this incident from the 1980's shouldn't be given critical attention. Hmm, sounds like we've heard this very recently (Kavanaugh).

I'm surprised none of our crack MSM journos have never discovered this.

Finally the Washington post decides to report this after many many people have reported this already. It’s almost like they felt they needed to because the story is out already.

I’m not sure if I’m more disturbed that these medical students thought this was funny, or that the school was cool with publishing the photo in the yearbook. Northam blackface

Will there be an op-ed regarding this story from one of the many liberal writers for the post or NYT?

I don't believe it, not a Democrat, what's next we will find out that a former Democratic Senator was a member of the Ku Klux Klan in his younger days? We know better not to question our white progressive leaders of the democratic party.

But hey at least there wasnt some obscure faded version of the N-word om a rock in the back of his grandpa's farm or anything, amirite

BreeNewsome I think I know this guy! Hey Crystylez, what up?

He'll resign as many Dems rightfully call for it and also every Kavanaugh GOP supporter hypocritically calls for it. (Because only one party has integrity.) Hopefully PJ and Squi never run for office.

I would go with the 'i was dressed like a coal miner' defense.

WOW..

'Boys will be boys' 'You wouldn't want a mistake he made in kindergarten/high school/medical school to ruin his life would you' amirite?

Nobody should care about yearbook pics on either side but I guess this is his karma tho for wanting to kill babies. sorrynotsorry

Because... of course it does.

Democrats are racists. They literally founded the KKK. I bet RalphNortham had something to do with Charlottesville.

How many Physicians “educated” in the same cultural environment as Gov. Ralph Northam continue to practice today? Racism runs deep, and often where one least expects it. “Physician, Heal thyself!”

I’m sorry for African American Democrats. They deserve better.

Yes, that maybe - but Gov Northam is no Steven King.

WTF didn't THIS come out PRE-ELECTION It was available. WTF can't the PRESS do its job?

Two lessons from the pending downfall of Gov. Ralph Northam. 1. NEVER do blackface or dress up as a Klansman. NEVER acceptable. 2. ALWAYS get your hands on your opponent's year book. Even medical schools apparently publish them! Will he be out of Richmond by midnight?

Saved your headline writers the trouble!

WP fake news. As you may now 98% of DEMOCRATS belonged or had ties with the KKK. Not surprised read history don't have to believme.

And you endorsed him over Perriello.

Fahrenthold 1984

NoreenTurynWSET

This looks like eugenics to me. It would explain his philosophy on human life.

Is this the worst you can do?

Same category as the Kavanaugh yearbook and the Covington chants... Young men having fun in a fairly innocent manner. Nothing wrong here. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to deem such actions as deplorable...

Why wasn't this discovered sooner? JFC

So how is he doing now? 1984, really? noonecares

Norfolk was very racist at that time period. I recall being shocked by the culture there.

That was 35 years AGO. people evolve, people change, mentality changes...my question is, does the 'mob mentality' changes too, or it's the same ? And you prove what exactly ?

woah! I can't believe Wapo headline isn't GOP pounced. Whoever wrote this headline not blaming GOP will be fired.

Damn, medical school? DO NO HARM!

What kind of messed up school did he go to?!?! I mean 1984 was a far cry from 1884 when this shit may have flown.

Ralph Northam is furiously shaking a magic 8 ball, asking if there's any way to recover from this.

I call BULLSHIT! This didn't just suddenly materialize...if this is in fact real, this was there when he ran and won the gubenatorial election. What is your purpose in posting this now? How did you not find it before, when he was running WTF

The Post has pounced!!!

Insert sound of PacMan dying...

Let’s play...who’s the racist now.....

Where's the 'Republicans pounce'?

No surprise. The Democratic Party is the party of slavery, Jim Crow, the KKK, 1994 crime bill etc.

I am asking GovernorVA to resign. Tatiana

Democrats love yearbooks.

This is what they mean by making america great “again”. 🙄😡

“Features a photo”? Yeah...it’s a photo of him.

Cernovich

LegalMediaWire He's a Democrat

Cernovich People. LOLOLOLOL. Just can't stop being WaPo, eh?

whoa. Gobsmacked that someone could even.....

Waiting for the outrage from the left CNN MSNBC maddow SpeakerPelosi Surely you will to destroy his life like you did the Covington boys and like you did to megynkelly Where is the consistency? Or will this simply be another example of the media's double standard bias?

kylegriffin1 Damn, I kinda liked this guy. If this is true, fuck him

I'm so tired.

what a twisted & sick headline, u liberal media folks shouldn't be regarded as a media. Just like dcexaminer the best media outlet out there said, wherever trouble looms for a Liberal Democrat be sure a liberal media outlet is somewhere waiting to clear the mess

kylegriffin1 1984 is a mere nanosecond in racism years.

But y'all dems will excuse him because he's 'woke'...

kylegriffin1 This is not good. Holy sh*t!

Downside: will likely have to give up the Governorship. Upside: makes him early contender to give the keynote speech at the 2020 GOP National Convention. He should just switch his party affiliation now. Gets to keep his job and GOP will welcome him with open arms. Bigots

You forgot to preface it with 'Democrat'

Cernovich Its fine guys he's a democrat.

Just when you thought his beliefs on infanticide were bad...

He promotes infanticide, and he's a racist. Must be a Republican.....oh, wait, he's a liberal. No surprise. RalphNortham

If that's real, he needs to resign- immediately.

rolandsmartin There are both Democrats and Republicans RACIST!!!

Northam needs to go. He was an adult at that time. But what about that school? What sort of medical school allows their yearbook to contain that sort of offensive photo? (And, no, it was not acceptable in 1984.)

He’s boofed! GovernorVA

kylegriffin1 I was around college age in 84. We knew blackface was bad then. Wasn't in Virginia but still.

pretty distasteful. Question is after 34 years or so what does he think now?

its obviously him...or he wouldve immediately come out denying. klangovernor

Ralph, this week can’t get any worse! Ralph: Hold my beer.

I'm shocked that WaPo would run this story. I had to goole it to make sure it was real.

You don’t say. It’ll be interesting to see how GovernorVA spins the victimhood on this one.

“People”? It’s HIM in the picture!!!!

mboorstein

He should resign, let the Lt Gov take over.

Well the whole eugenics thing makes more sense now

VMI had an incident, in the Fall of 2004, with cadets dressing as starving Somalis and the like. Photos showed-up online. Nothing new for this school.

Northam looks like he was following in the footsteps of his hero Margaret Sanger

RalphNortham You need to step aside, right now.

Now, did the HuffPost HuffPost just try to get a paramedic in VA fired for his racist off duty behavior.. you know how can we trust him to do his job for EVERYONE if he behaves like this.. blah blah blah 🤔

Alternate headline; Governor Northam's term aborted in the 4th trimester. Legislature to keep him comfortable and his career will be resuscitated if that's what the state assembly and voters desired.

Congratulations! No “Republicans Seize/ Pounce” (yet).

“A photo of people”? Who are the people and why would they be on RalphNortham yearbook page?

Obama sure can pick a winner, can't he?

GayPatriot But he'll sign into law the murder of babies...so the Left will give him a pass and there will be no moral outrage

Did he chose the pictures? (Serious question)

Shocking that the state that was home to the capital of the Confederacy would have racist tendencies. Also, where is Charlottesville again?

Fahrenthold Are Sqee and PJ there?

Democrat or republican, all rich kids are like this.

The Dems and their Klan problem.. just won't go away 😙

wtf. and it's his med school yearbook. he can't bullshit about 'i was a kid blah blah'. If this is real, he should resign, and other dems should publicly call for it.

Prepare for the 'life's journey' narrative

webofslime As a child of the 80s; this wasn't okay then as it isn't now.

And he’s gotta go

I, personally, cannot think of a better way to kick off Black History Month.

1984 A good question is how did this get in a YEARBOOK in 1984

So in Florida we just lost chief of staff to governor DeSantis when it was discovered he was in blackface in college. He was forced to resign. I'm sure you leftist at the fake news Washington Post are recommending that Northam resign himself.

Internet doesn't forgive

He should be forced to resign ASAP. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤨🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Here's my question. IS that him in the photo wearing black face? Man, that guy's not old enough for him to have been college aged and even drape himself in the 'at the time' bullshit old people use to excuse their racism. Fuuuuuuuuuck this guy.

Democrats or Republicans, they all have to be held accountable for their actions! He has a lot of explaining to do!

Gotta say this is not news it just fuels m0re of the same racism. Smarten up

Checks Twitter after remembering I was a pouncing conservative yesterday. Today:

POUNCE, POUNCE, POUNCE, POUNCE!!!

I wonder what we would find if we looked at senatemajldr, SecretarySonny old year books?

Just read more....Gov of VA....You better come out & explain yourself from 1984. You were Not just an Idiot. You knew You had these in your past & hid them? How come these pictures are coming out now? This was in 1984....in Medical Sch. He was Not a Teenager. How shameful.

He's a democrat. He'll keep his job.

Will be interesting to find out if this is real or fake. That is where real journalism comes in.

Should have gone with Tom Perriello. Northam had the backing of the Democratic political establishment, McAuliffe, Kaine, Warner, and the establishment always knows what's best, right?

Ralph Northam needs to resign. Not tomorrow, not next week. NOW. And, because I apply my standards equally, Justice Gorsuch also needs to resign NOW (see below), as does the attempted rapist/serial liar who recently joined him on the bench.

He’s toast🤣

Fahrenthold Two things: Guarantee dozens of prominent Republicans with similar pictures from 35 years ago, and not one of them would resign; 2) looks like a not-funny Halloween costume - this is still being litigated as of 2018. See Megyn Kelly on NBC: “what’s wrong w blackface?”

so it is his actual page. Well which one is he, the blackface or the Klansman. Anyone taking bets

A lot of people feel absolutely betrayed, and they should be. It's time to boot him out of office.

Ralph Southam

This was not acceptable in 1984 and still is not acceptable. GovernorVA. Shame

I intensely dislike him - but what does being in the same yearbook with offensive material have to do with ANYTHING. Start reporting the news WAPO

This is his ‘oh goddamn’ moment. I really don’t want to hear an excuse for the photo. Not open to it. He is 59, not 559. I am 55 and wouldn’t have tolerated that photo’s inclusion in my yearbook then and won’t accept anything but a sincere apology from him now.

Time to step down, Governor. Doesn't matter if you are a Democrat. You have to step down.

just to be clear..in year book..so your saying he put it in the book? FYI..im betting whole lot year books from South had this shit!! not right but context people.;

But, but, but... what Brett Kavanaugh did at Georgetown Prep didn't matter, right RIGHT?

What the fuck, man. That's from med school too, not even high school.

This damages our chances of winning the legislature. I don’t like this at all.

Well, the Democratic Party is the KKK!

Fahrenthold This is reprehensible and unacceptable. Northam needs to (at the very very minimum) explain himself right now

Resign.

Well, as long as he doesn't run as a Republican, he'll be alright

If uou attack Kavanaugh for teenage boof, racism is never a spoof! Notrthammustgo

He needs to resign!!! He is guilty!!!! Oh wait, that's not how it's done?

Holy Sheet, they are wearing nightgowns, Batman.

He’s going to be kept comfortable until the voters of Virginia can have a discussion about his political career. I’m fairly certain he’s “aborted” his future in politics.

Digging into someone's past is like looking in your woman's phone. Be prepared to be hurt. Lol . I'll allow him at least an apology and explanation. Before I savagely discredit him lol

Fahrenthold GTFO

What would the title of this be if he were a Republican? Srsly you guys are deluded if you think people can actually trust what you say.

FYI—-

is he in the KKK garb or wearing blackface? Bet the democrats give him a pass.

Oh my gawd! Oh! My! Gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd! Oh my gawd!

Fahrenthold Wtf

ktumulty Is it Northam in the photo? Yes or no? Otherwise, this is bullshit. He has no control over a yearbook layout.

Thank you again for sharing. Tagesspiegel MalteLehming

Brett Kavanaugh’s yearbook sends its regards.

Wait just a minute,' WaPo! How dare you'Kavanaugh' this upstanding Democrat! This is racially charged and Democrats are NOT racial.

And now we know why Ralph Northam supports Planned Parenthood... BlackGenocide

ccpecknold Now that is kkk and blackface, and a Democrat of course.

How this plays out could have major implications beyond one state official with a stupid unthinking action in the past. The question is will demand for his resignation be as loud and demanding as the case of the Florida Sec of State in a similar unthinking actions when younger

So is The Gov responsible for a blackface & KKK posted pictures? If the Now Gov was one of the posted picture....Then call him out and call for his resignation. But to post the disgusting photograph & then say he went to the School.....is truly Not worthy reporting. Hold sch.acct

Truth hurts

ccpecknold Goodness, I'm kind of surprised Mr. ccpecknold -- Your decision to 'retweet' this WP article regarding 'Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam in a 1984 yearbook' depicting a 'photo of people in blackface and KKK.' -- curious about (your) purpose and/or motive, sir. All due respect.

Fahrenthold Bet he’s going to have a surge in popularity with GOP voters.

Fahrenthold

Gotta step down and hand it over to Justin Fairfax. Indefensible. As a Democrat, this kind of stuff can't stand in our party. The other party put their 'good old boys' on the bench; we kick them out of office.

Can we do Mitch McConnell's yearbook next? 🤔

If this is Northam he should resign!

Ah...I wonder what he was thinking during the Kavanaugh hearings? What an appalling hypocrite

so what?

Uhm. That’s pretty disgusting, esp. since it was 1984, long long LONG after everyone SHOULD have known blackface is a no go. And he put it it a yearbook? Ugh.

PardesSeleh It's fine everyone, just relax he's a democrat now.

Was it Gov. Northam in black face? Or someone else?

What day and time will his resignation be? Oh, I’m sorry he is a DEMOCRAT GOVERNOR. I guess that means he gets a pass.

Unless he's directly in one of the photos or created the yearbook himself why is he being blamed?

Fahrenthold Is it him in Blackface/the KKK apparel?

I’m not the people whose photos are on the same page as mine in any of my yearbooks. You?

So 'conservatives' only released the photo due to his stance on female reproduction rights and other civil rights. Dam it was only 35 years ago.

That is despicable.

Remember when this butthole's campaign attacked Ed Gillespie as racist? 🤣😂😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚

So what. In 1984 ....over 35 years ago ... things were different .... not right, but pretty much generally acceptable.... People smoked cigarettes in hospitals.... Pot was illegal.... Times change.

PardesSeleh Bet he has a few regrets now.

PardesSeleh Never mind that! It says he likes beer! Let’s get him!!!

Fahrenthold I think you mean ex Gov. Northam. Welcome Gov. Fairfax

Fahrenthold Are there no questions about authenticity? How does this not come up months or years ago? Also, clearly this was held on to by his opponents to drop on him on the 1st day of black history month. I'd like to see some further corroboration done before I jump on the bandwagon.

He'll be excused......he a Democrat.

Yep Northam is a Klansman and a DEMOCRAT!

Make him “comfortable” while we decide what to do with him.

Wait until the governor learns of the link between Planned Parenthood, Abortion, and Systemic Racism. Well... he already knew about that one too.

“Shows men in blackface” Pretty sure one of those is him. Let’s see you spin this platter of hypocrisy!!!!

Political career. 3.2.1... Ka-Boom!

I’m really surprised that the yearbook editors actually let this through... sheeeesh....

Is the 'I'm Offended by Coal Miners' guy available for comment on this one?

PardesSeleh Like good democrat and KKK member

Party difference: Dems will condemn him and I wouldn’t be shocked if he’s forced to resign. GOP would call the photo ‘fake news’ and nominate him for the Supreme Court

Conservatives pounce and seize.

Guys knock it off... you’re gonna make Megyn Kelly laugh so hard she’ll pass out.

When will the yearbook exposes become a thing of the past?

Too bad he's not Republican. He'd be eligible for a cabinet position.

I can’t wait to see how the media covers this since he’s a Democrat. Megyn Kelly lost her job. He’ll probably get a raise.

Terrible american Scums! What kind of cultur do they have ? Unbeliavable!

P O U N C E

Start drafting the resignation letter, my dude.

Clearly someone has decided they need to destroy Northam. His stance on Confederate memorials makes clear this isn’t some closet bigot. Hopefully people will see that.

As deplorable as this is, I'm not surprised. Virginia, esp southern VA, had strong deep south racist tendancies through the 80s. Confederate flags flew high much to my dismay. What DOES surprise me is that no one is talking about who and why they posted this?

How did he get elected?

1984?

He should resign. Disgusting.

ktumulty Between this and the infanticide, perhaps GovernorVA Ralph Northam needs to resign. NarcissisticManiac

REPUBLICANS POUNCE

ktumulty Womp womp
