Too conveniently, it bans a photo of Virginia governor Ralph Northam. It protects him.
The infamous photo shows him in blackface, with his then-girlfriend beside him in full KKK gear. (and uh, did they just have KKK gear lying around the house???)
It doesn't get covered much in the news. He is being protected because of his party affiliation as a democrat. He is still in office to this day. Imagine if such a photo had been discovered with a republican. It would be headline news for months.
