I am sitting here shaking with rage and frustration on the point of tears wondering why Democrats will call for Franken's resignation but won't call for Trump to step down for much greater crimes. Why won't our side fight? What is wrong with you?

By James Pindell Globe Staff December 06, 2017

WASHINGTON — Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren told Minnesota Democrat Al Franken that he should resign in the wake of yet another sexual harassment allegation, according to an aide to Warren.

“She thinks he should resign and had told him that privately,” the aide told the Globe, declining to elaborate further.

Warren has yet to make a public statement calling for Franken’s resignation or otherwise addressing the latest allegation. ............................

this was all a set up. this is what the repigs are hoping for, thinning down the Democratic Senators.

We need to call I know I will and I am not even his constituent.

We need to say we got the biggest assaulter in the WH why isn't he leaving???

And have we ever heard a president say we don't want a liberal Democratic Senator in place of that POS Moore, this is an outrage.

and left a concerned and a show of support message for Senator Franken. This is a set up, and why would colleagues throw him under the bus???

This is disgusting that they would do something like this to Franken to silence him.

DC office contact number is 1 202 224 5641.
