A sitting US Senator has just admitted to sexually harassing at least one woman.
I can't say anyone should be surprised. It's Al Friggin' Franken after all.

I immediately pushed him away with both of my hands against his chest and told him if he ever did that to me again I wouldn’t be so nice about it the next time.

I walked away. All I could think about was getting to a bathroom as fast as possible to rinse the taste of him out of my mouth.

He groped me, without my consent, while I was asleep.

I felt violated all over again. Embarrassed. Belittled. Humiliated.

I wanted to shout my story to the world with a megaphone to anyone who would listen, but even as angry as I was, I was worried about the potential backlash and damage going public might have on my career as a broadcaster.

But that was then, this is now. I’m no longer afraid

At least one more woman has come forward today.

He needs to resign immediately. Your thoughts on this disgusting revelation, please.

Sexually harassed multiple women? There's nothing sexual mentioned whatsoever by the second woman - not to diminish or excuse his terrible behavior, but at least report the story correctly.

This is just straight up trolling. You are defending Moore in another thread. It's obvious you have absolutely no desire to hear anyone's " thoughts on this disgusting revelation"

She spent a good 30 minutes or so on Jake Tapper's show an hour or so ago. Hated how Paul Begala and another Democrat were quick to say that the party could easily brush this under the rug by saying they were launching an ethics probe into the matter, able to avoid any further questions about it after having done so.

Not much to say other than the picture proof is definitely not a good look for him even if it may have been meant as (highly inappropriate) joke as he says. He probably needs to resign. You can't be up there preaching do as I say, not as I do.

Not to mention, the "groping" was him pretending to grope. He wasn't even touching her. That kissing thing is fucking nasty, though.
