Democratic Virginia delegate candidate Susanna Gibson hauled in hundreds of thousands of dollars through her campaign from liberal advocacy groups and individual donors just before news broke that she had sex with her husband for cash on camera, records show.
Gibson has dubbed the scandal, reported on by the Washington Post on Sept. 11, as"an illegal invasion of my privacy designed to humiliate me and my family" despite the sexually explicit clips not being leaked but, instead, posted by the 40-year-old nurse practitioner and her husband, lawyer John David Gibson, on the platform Chaturbate and later archived on other porn sites. Between July 1 and Aug.
Meanwhile, philanthropist and longtime Democratic donor Sonjia Smith, the wife of Bills, gave $70,000 combined in August to Gibson's campaign. The couple was recently dubbed"the new kingmakers of the Virginia Democratic Party." EMILY's List, an influential left-wing PAC that endorsed Gibson, gave her campaign $20,000 in August. PAC For America's Future, which the conservative group Capital Research Center has said received funding from the George Soros-backed Democracy PAC, donated $8,750 to the Gibson campaign in August, records show.
