Calls are going out for Al Franken to resign, but he is stubbornly refusing to leave the legislature where he will not be taken seriously anymore by the American people

For years I have have been alarmed by the fact kooky, weird Hollywood actor, Al Franken, became a senator in the U.S. Congress (This Man Was Elected To Congress). Even as recently as August 6, 2017, I questioned Franken's mental fitness, stating he should not be in Congress (Mentally Unfit Members Of Congress Should Not Be Serving In The Legislature).

This month, Franken has been slammed for sexually assaulting two women, in the fallout from the Harvey Weinstein rape scandal. On November 16, 2017, television host and model, Leeann Tweeden, came forward stating Franken had forcefully French kissed her in one incident and groped her in another, without her consent. Tweeden angrily warned Franken never to do that again. Disgusted by the incident she stated, "All I could think about was getting to a bathroom as fast as possible to rinse the taste of him out of my mouth." A photo did indeed surfaced of the second incident, regarding Franken groping Tweeden while she slept on a government airplane:

A second woman came forward this week stating Franken groped her without her consent. Lindsay Menz stated Franken groped her at the 2010 Minnesota State Fair, during a photo with her husband and mother present. Menz posted about the incident on her Facebook page years ago and has referred to it again, in light of the current scandal raging against the strange senator.

Menz stated on Facebook years ago, "(Franken) pulled me in really close, like awkward close, and as my husband took the picture, he put his hand full-fledged on my rear. It wasn't around my waist. It wasn't around my hip or side. It was definitely on my butt. Dude — Al Franken TOTALLY molested me! Creeper!" This week Menz stated of Tweeden's account of sexual assault by Franken, "I don't want to paint my story in the same light as hers. The reason I want to say something is if someone sees that I said something, maybe it would give them the courage to say something, too."

Senator Al Franken Kissed and Groped Me Without My Consent, And There’s Nothing Funny About It

In December of 2006, I embarked on my ninth USO Tour to entertain our troops, my eighth to the Middle East since the 9/11 attacks. My father served in Vietnam and my then-boyfriend (and now husband, Chris) is a pilot in the Air Force, so bringing a ‘little piece of home’ to servicemembers stationed far away from their families was both my passion and my privilege.

Also on the trip were country music artists Darryl Worley, Mark Wills, Keni Thomas, and some cheerleaders from the Dallas Cowboys. The headliner was comedian and now-senator, Al Franken. Franken had written some skits for the show and brought props and costumes to go along with them. Like many USO shows before and since, the skits were full of sexual innuendo geared toward a young, male audience.

As a TV host and sports broadcaster, as well as a model familiar to the audience from the covers of FHM, Maxim and Playboy, I was only expecting to emcee and introduce the acts, but Franken said he had written a part for me that he thought would be funny, and I agreed to play along.

When I saw the script, Franken had written a moment when his character comes at me for a ‘kiss’. I suspected what he was after, but I figured I could turn my head at the last minute, or put my hand over his mouth, to get more laughs from the crowd. On the day of the show Franken and I were alone backstage going over our lines one last time. He said to me, “We need to rehearse the kiss.” I laughed and ignored him. Then he said it again. I said something like, ‘Relax Al, this isn’t SNL…we don’t need to rehearse the kiss.’...
