Virginia‘s Republican Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin doesn’t take office until Jan. 15 – yet some critics Tuesday tried to blame him, instead of the commonwealth’s outgoing Democratic incumbent, for a 179-mile-long traffic mess on Interstate 95.
Hundreds of travelers – including U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va. — were stranded in their vehicles overnight Monday into Tuesday in frigid conditions along the northern third of the highway in Virginia.
However, one of the stranded motorists – New Jersey parent Joseph Catalano — told Fox News he reached out to the actual sitting governor, Democrat Ralph Northam, while he and his family were trying to travel home from Disney World in Florida.
On Tuesday night’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” host Tucker Carlson noted that many others impulsively blamed Youngkin instead of Northam for the crisis.
