TL;DR · WeSearch summary

After the picture of Franken fake-groping a sleeping colleague went viral, six women came forward to claim that Franken had kissed them without consent while working on Air America and in stand-up comedy. That's not exactly nothing, but it all took place before Franken won his Senate seat. Rather than investigate the allegations for truth and context, Gillibrand insisted that the allegations alone were disqualifying: Advertisement googletag.cmd.push(function () { googletag.display("div-gpt-300x250_4"); //googletag.pubads().refresh([gptAdSlot["div-gpt-300x250_4"]]) }); JUST IN: Sen.
