The whole thing is pretty creepy.
Pretty sure that's exactly what they did.
So creepy.
GOP never misses the opportunity to act like DBs.
No kidding. It’s stalker-level creepy.
They cyberstalked and doxxed the kid. Disgusting and creepy.
WTH?
Nobody cyberstalked or doxxed. The kid has public twitter account in his own name.
You need to learn what cyberstalking and doxxing is. Reply to a tweet is neither.
DP. Whatever label you want to put on it, mining a minor’s social media account to find an old photo you can used to try to malign them is creepy and inappropriate. I would expect a governor to have better judgment than that, but in Youngkin’s case, apparently I would be wrong.

He is a senior in HS. They *say* he is 17, but who knows for sure?
If he doesn't want to be challenged, he shouldn't be on Twitter. Given his involvement with the Democrats.... he's a big boy and should be able to take the "heat." Instead, he plays the victim. Typical.
Tell me - how is posting a pic of him next to Northam, then pointing out that Northam wore blackface an attack on him?
He is one of Youngkin’s constituents, whether he supports Youngkin or not. Regardless of his age, it is not even remotely appropriate for Youngkin to make an ad hominem personal attack on a constituent for retweeting and commenting on a news article written by someone else. Dear lord, how much have we lost any sense of civility that this is something to at even needs to be explained?
This kid is more politically active than probably 95% of the people on this site.
Don't kid yourself..... He is LOVING this attention.
DP. Beat me to it. Notice how the kid retweeted false information (didn't bother to make sure it was true first), and then added his virtuous, "Shameful" comment at the end? Ugh. He's loving the sanctimony. My question is, when will he stop playing the victim and admit that HE made a mistake and attacked the Youngkins first? My guess - not happening.
He wasn’t retweeting random rumors, he was retweeting a news article that he didnot know to be incorrect at the time. If Youngkin wants to take issue with the reporter who wrote the article, that is one thing. But to make personal attacks on a kid just for retweeting is beneath anyone with a sense of common decency.
The author of that false news story needs to apologize to the Youngkins. As do all of you who jumped on your usual outrage bandwagon before knowing all the facts. Do you ever learn?
The author reached out to Youngkin’s office for comment two weeks before the article ran, but Youngkin decided to ignore him. That is on Youngkin.
I imagine Youngkin was *just a little bit busy* at that time.
But not too busy to stalk Twitter and then attack constituents?

If his press team can’t find time in two weeks to respond to a news inquiry that is supposedly based on false information, that is an issue of their competence to do the job and someone should be fired over it.
If that doesn’t happen, I think that’s a sign the story was actually right but since the redecorating hadn’t actually happened yet, Youngkin called it off and not is trying to pretend it was never the plan.

One small part of the story was false. The bulk of it has not been disputed.

The only correction was that the historian’s former office is not being used as a family room. It doesn’t appear that anyone has disputed the rest of the story on behalf of Youngkin. The publication that printed the article is responsible for verifying information they report. A private citizen has no obligation to fact check news articles before commenting on them.
