As previously reported, several Democrat women senators, led by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) called on Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) to resign as he faces another accusation of sexual assault. The calls came late Wednesday morning after Politico published a claim by yet another woman that Franken forced her to kiss him.
Now a top Senate Dem says Franken is expected to resign Thursday.
Franken’s downfall started three weeks ago with the release of this photo of him molesting a sleeping Leeann Tweeden on a USO tour. Tweeden also accused Franken of forcing her to kiss him
