Just days \u200cafter reports circulated\u200d about\u200c Gibson&#8217;s side gig\u2063 as an amateur pornographer, Sen. Mark Warner (D., Va.) said he only &#8220;met Ms. Gibson once&#8221; and wouldn&#8217;t &#8220;weigh in&#8221; until more details were known.<\/p>\n<p>Sen.

A review of the Internet Archive revealed that\u2062 her website previously displayed endorsements from over 25 current and former Virginia \u2064lawmakers and\u200d organizations, including high-profile\u200c figures such as former governor Ralph\u2063 Northam \u200band\u200b congresswoman \u2062Abigail Spanberger. However, as of Thursday morning, all endorsements have been removed from the site.<\/p>\n<p>It remains unknown whether Gibson&#8217;s backers \u200bhave \u200dwithdrawn their endorsements due to the scandal. However, \u200cthe removal of these\u200b endorsements from\u200b her campaign website \u2063suggests that \u2064her\u200d involvement in the sex industry may have detrimental effects \u2064on her support \u200dfrom the\u2063 Democratic Party.<\/p>\n<p>Despite\u200b the scandal, \u200bGibson&#8217;s \u200bcampaign has \u200cnot yet\u200c provided a comment on the matter. Democrats,\u2063 in general, have been reluctant \u2062to defend \u200dher behavior after the \u2063pornographic performances \u200bcame to light. Senator\u2063 Mark Warner of Virginia, for example, stated that he \u2062had only met Gibson once and would refrain from commenting until more details emerged. Senator Tim Kaine, also from Virginia, expressed his surprise at the reports, while Spanberger, who had previously endorsed Gibson and campaigned for her, described the situation \u200bas \u2064&#8221;shocking&#8221; and &#8220;terrible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite the controversy, Gibson has vowed to continue her campaign. She and her attorney, Daniel Watkins, have claimed that sharing\u200b any of her \u2064videos is a criminal offense. The Washington Free Beacon has published an uncensored opposition research document that features links to the videos in question.<\/p>\n<p>The removal of endorsements from\u200d Gibson&#8217;s campaign website indicates that her involvement\u200c in the pornography\u200d industry has had negative\u2062 consequences for her reputation and political support. As\u2064 the scandal continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how this will impact her campaign and influence the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/rep-owens-gop-can-win-big-in-2022-2024\/\" title=\"Rep.
