Totally horseshit smearing of Al Franken...

2 women publicly identified as tied to the GOP make accusations neither of which rise to the level of a crime and then an entire series of totally anonymous claims by women who swear they are democrats with the latest claiming to be a staffer. And of course all are terrified of the wrath of Al Franken should their identities become known...

I hope every democrat supporting resignation instead of a full and open investigation gets their fucking turn in the smear barrel too because they are assholes (Hope my senator Maggie Hassan is reading this) and will have earned it. You pluperfect jackasses better pray your re-election doesn't come down to my contribution or my vote-both are available to a democrat seeking your job if they show a spine.Go bipartisan yourselves!

I told myself I'm not opening it until Trump resigns/is removed from office, but for Roger Stone I'll crack it open early.

Too much spineless self-destructing bullshit like this going on. This may be the last straw for many lifelong Democrats to say "fuck it."

I agree, I hope every democrat who was part of this lynch mob mentality enjoys their turn, but I doubt it. They might if they step out of line, but by and large they are playing nicey-nice with the fascists and enabling them. If they speak out, then LOOK OUT, anonymous accusations will come and they will be ran outta town.
