With Northam walking back his "it was me" statement, I think it's likely they don't know how the photo got leaked and why the MSM isn't running interference for them. Are they shaking down all those people back then who were at that party and need to buy time?
Also, going with they don't know the source of the leak, are they scared Fairfax will be taken out via the same M.O.? Who's next in line in VA after Fairfax?
Looking like the the D's can't protect their troops and the troops are demanding real answers for the fuck ups. Fence sitters aren't going to put up with Pelosi's shit for long if she can't protect them.
My 2cents.
