    As elected officials, we should be held to the highest standards—not the lowest. The allegations against Sen. Franken describe behavior that cannot be tolerated. While he’s entitled to an Ethics Committee hearing, I believe he should step aside to let someone else serve.

        You are so politically stupid. Now Murkowski and Collins can save their skins by voting NO on the #TaxScamBill & it will be 49 no's to 50 yes, just so you can eliminate a competitor for Pres in 2020. This will backfire.

        Politically stupid is only half the issue. Trying to force out a colleague who has clearly been setup (without due process) amounts to believing the thuggery of the alt-right and encouraging them to engage in more of this dirty politics!

        Just a note: I refuse to call them alt-right. They are the KKK and white supremacists. They’ve tried to soften their name by using alt-right.

        No way that forcibly kissing five or even ten women is equivalent to repeatedly grabbing women’s crotches or walking in on undressed teen girls, or stroking the genitals of a child after undressing her. Pay attention. GOP’s foul, disgusting politicians are staying in office.

        Gillibrand, now others saying “Enough is enough” indicates Franken being thrown to wolves for what others have done. Even if AF did every single thing accused of, still pales besi fraction of what Trump, Moore, Weinstein, Conyers, etc. have done, admitted to, or are accused of.

        2/2 … Each accusation against AF was for something done in front of many, dozens, hundreds, thousands of people. No serious threat to victims’ security despite how uncomfortable, demeaning & wrong.

        Dems also telegraphing that they don’t trust the ethics investigation, though I think it’s unintentional. Troubling.

        Throw a rock on any American street corner and try *not* to hit a man who's grabbed a woman's butt or honked a boob once during his life. Not as a predator or even as a power player, but because he was drunk or clowning around or stupid or immature. (Lot of that going around.)

        I don't downplay the experience of anyone who's been traumatically, detrimentally assaulted. My clients deal every day with those issues. But we're verging on mob mentality. if we quarantine every man who 's ever stepped out of line, we create a deep, unnecessary divide.

        That was the GOP plan Roger Stone and LeeAnn Tweeden put together several weeks ago. They knew a misandrist like @SenGillibrand would take the bait and start a Carrie Nation Mob purity movement, polarizing Dems.

        The back of my brain wonders if it might have been payback for Sen. Franken holding Jeff "I can't recall" Sessions' feet to the fire during his Senate perjuries - I mean, hearings.

        You made a huge error in judgement by preempting due process & furthered the trap laid by the GOP. Portions of the accusations have already been proven false. You have damaged our political clout as well as one of our staunchest fighters. I can no longer support you.

        Senator. The initial allegation against Senator Franken is FAKE. I can't speak to every allegation. But MRS TWEEDEN lied about the incident. Stop this.

There's the proof the initial account was a lie. This is a smear job by an Alt-Right operative.

        I went into this looking for the EXIF data on the photo to possibly identify the photographer - who would have to be an airman aboard a military flightline allowing a felonious sexual assault to take place. I found that she was basically making shit up. #FindthePhotographer
