Thank you for your service Al! Whatever else happens, you made Sessions perjure himself in front of the Senate committee, forcing him to recuse himself from the Russia investigation, leading to the Mueller appointment. If the Mueller investigation ends up taking down Trumpolini and his cronies, you will be remembered.

Republicans aren’t going to do didlysquat, because they don’t actually care about sexual abuse. No wait, I’d be wrong on the doing didlysquat front. Roger Stone and his ilk are going to work overtime next year to cook up anonymous accusations against vulnerable Dems, since that’s all that is needed nowadays. My bet:…

In that case he should do a Louis CK and make a clear confession during his resignation speech. Because if he doesn’t then the optics are that the Democratic standards for these kind of allegations are that even anonymous accusations must be fully believed. And that (lack of an) evidential standard WILL be used by…

If Franken is forced to resign (which is pretty much a given at this point), it will be an unmitigated disaster for Democratic candidates and officials in the future. Basically, the Democratic party just said it will accept no misconduct of any nature (perfectly reasonable in itself), but, more importantly, will…

Hmmm, we have a Republican orange baboon squatting in the White House whose administration is embroiled in scandal and we have a high profile senate election in Alabama which will likely result in the Dems picking up what should’ve been a safe Republican seat. Sure would be nice if something happened to a Democrat to…

The first woman outright exaggerated and lost credibility upon release of a video. The second woman really stretched the definition of harassment. Now this woman claims she was molested, in front of her father and husband, when Franken rested his hand on her ass for a picture.

Meh, as far as apologies go, it’s an adequate one, especially compared to all the other guys that have been outed so far. At least it seemed somewhat sincere, though words are wind and he’ll have to prove he’s a changed man. If he can show he’s changed, I won’t mind watching his new material in the…
