God, damn it. Now Charlie Rose is being accused.

I have no idea who Charlie Rose is. I know Pete Rose was busted for gambling on baseball with insider information or something many years ago.

Why do I not find this surprising?

It is just a talking head. We know they are not actual journalists, they just look into the camera and tell you what other people tell them to tell you well. Also Franken is at least a congressman who people voted for. Charlie rose is just a person chosen by the media elite to entertain us. Still bad, but there are other people who can read a teleprompter. Perhaps they should get Sarah Palin. She is easy on the eyes, the right likes her, and you can put whatever words you want on her teleprompter because she has no brain to compete with them.

I don't like Sarah Palin. Too much "earnestness". As though she believes whatever she is saying is of utmost global significance.

Dude, she is an interesting puppet. She babbles and talks in front of Turkey killing machines. She is a hell of a lot more worthwhile that honey boo boo and mama June.

Covered six posts before yours.

You got me again, NotDayton!

?????

Whoosh.

Two more women..

Attorney for Rep Conyers just brought up Trump allegations to me: "If we are talking about resignation & resigning over allegations then half the ppl in the House, half the ppl in the Senate, including the president of the USA would have to step aside, step down & or resign.”


To which Twitter universally responded...

More.

Good. The guy literally has no credibility as a senator after that picture of him pretend groping that woman who was asleep. He's impossible to take seriously now. Embarrassing.

The announcement will be that he intends to put all of this behind him and get back to work for the people of Minnesota.

But, seriously, he's toast.

People took him seriously before??

Aaaaaaand he's done.

I only heard part of the new conference lunchtime, and it was Franken still giving the "I sure don't remember it the way they say!" excuse.
Did he resign after that?

EDIT *checks* Yup!

Seems like he doesn’t understand what consent means.

"I am leaving while a man who has bragged on tape about his history of sexual assault sits in the Oval Office..."



"I am leaving while a man who has bragged on tape the first president who happened to get caught on tape bragging about his history of sexual assault sits in the Oval Office..."

FTFY.

It wasn’t even sexual assault that Trump committed. He said that when you’re rich they LET YOU do it. It says more about that kind of woman than anything. But they never talked about that for some reason.

And I'm pretty sure he was just being a braggadocios asshole with the pussy-grabbing remark, and you have to be nuts to think he actually ever did that to anyone.

FT better.

Also: as opposed to the last president, who got caught actually colluding with the Russians on tape ("I can deal better when I'm reelected!")

Your disagreement is not reality.

You are absolutely wrong.
