Al Franken drags out Senate departure, only mentions ‘transition’ after replacement named

Minnesota Democratic Sen. Al Franken resigned from Congress two weeks ago amid continuing sexual-misconduct allegations. However, he’s yet to say when he’ll empty his Capitol Hill office, even after his replacement was appointed earlier this week.

“Tina Smith will make an excellent United States senator. … I look forward to working with her on ensuring a speedy and seamless transition,” Franken said after the state lieutenant governor was appointed, without mentioning when he’ll leave.

In his Dec. 7 resignation speech, Franken said only that he’ll be leaving in the “coming weeks.”

Multiple people on Capitol Hill, including those in Senate leadership, told Fox News that they doesn’t know when Franken will leave.

“I’ll be coming home,” was Franken’s only response to a question after future plans, after his Senate floor resignation speech.

Franken was back at work this week, casting votes in the Senate, participating in a committee hearing, attending a senators-only luncheon with Democrats and even posing for a picture with a group of high school students.

The two-term senator, first elected in 2008, had initially intended to let a Senate ethics committee investigate the allegations against him.

However, a seventh claim on Dec. 6., by a woman claiming Franken tried to forcibly kiss her in 2006, resulted in a chorus of female Democratic senators -- including New York’s Kirsten Gillibrand and California’s Kamal Harris -- calling for his resignation, effectively forcing his departure.

Franken, in his speech, noted his original plan regarding an ethics investigation, which he thought would help. And he argued that “some of the allegations against me are simply not true. Others, I remember very differently.”

Franken also suggested that him leaving elected office while President Trump remains in the Oval Office after bragged on tape about his history of sexual misconduct is "ironic."

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

Al Franken has always been a dishonest and corrupt Democrat Senator.......typical Democrat politician

 

[ColonelAngus]

Was there any doubt that was nothing but political posturing?

Jones won....I will be surprised if Franken actually resigns.

I wonder what part of resign didn't Al Franken understand.
You can't cast votes if you've resigned.

Mkay?

The Democrats are dishonest to the core.
They lie, cheat, steal, and never do what they say they're going to do.
Yet they call Trump a liar every day.

 

[MACAULAY]

Anyone we get from those Fools in Minnesota (Only State to vote for Mondale) is going to be a Bolshevik Turd just like Al Franken.

Still, it is good to change out the Turds every now and then, and get a fresh one in.

Maybe they'll sent us one of their Somailians they are so proud of....that would be interesting and no Somalian would be any worse than Al Franken.

I'm here to educate, get engaged and save you from what we are facing. American liberty and dominance are the key to liberty for the West. I may not be sure about alot of things, but of this I am absolutely certain. I even believe in an American Empire, as long as your constitution is faithfully ruling the land. Canada has made me their enemy and I make it easier for them to hate me even more. That's the path I was forced to take, not by choice I assure you.

As it were, I've reached out to more American politicians, business and corporate leaders than the average American has, again, in the interest of blowing the whistle and making the case for American Values, not Canadian or socialist values. What impacts you impacts us, which is why when Reagan was in power, he influenced Mulroney to such a degree that Canada was actually very "American like" for a few golden years. Some great efforts on his part to dismantle a liberty destroying RCMP, which influenced how all police agencies operated. Once Reagan was out, Canada became neo-communist Canada again.

But really, does anyone think he can just sit back in his seat as if nothing happened? This would be an extremely easy target for the GOP. It's not as if the leadership within the DNC isn't already in question, now you have a guy who gives a farewell speech and all is forgotten? It cannot happen, I say it will not happen.

If he does defy them and become a Maverick it will be one hell of an entertaining 2018!

Canada was free and following important values of Rule of Law, Due Process and liberty for citizens. He despised communism and wanted nothing to do with the oppression of rights within Canada. Reagan lead the global love for America with some help from Thatcher. As it were, Mulroney and Reagan were actually quite close, Brian even the first speaker at Ronalds eulogy. What an honor!

Perhaps they'll even take a que and throw off their oppressive socialist overlords.

Minnesota Democratic Sen. Al Franken resigned from Congress two weeks ago amid continuing sexual-misconduct allegations. However, he’s yet to say when he’ll empty his Capitol Hill office, even after his replacement was appointed earlier this week.

“Tina Smith will make an excellent United States senator. … I look forward to working with her on ensuring a speedy and seamless transition,” Franken said after the state lieutenant governor was appointed, without mentioning when he’ll leave.

In his Dec. 7 resignation speech, Franken said only that he’ll be leaving in the “coming weeks.”

Multiple people on Capitol Hill, including those in Senate leadership, told Fox News that they doesn’t know when Franken will leave.

“I’ll be coming home,” was Franken’s only response to a question after future plans, after his Senate floor resignation speech.

Franken was back at work this week, casting votes in the Senate, participating in a committee hearing, attending a senators-only luncheon with Democrats and even posing for a picture with a group of high school students.

The two-term senator, first elected in 2008, had initially intended to let a Senate ethics committee investigate the allegations against him.

However, a seventh claim on Dec. 6., by a woman claiming Franken tried to forcibly kiss her in 2006, resulted in a chorus of female Democratic senators -- including New York’s Kirsten Gillibrand and California’s Kamal Harris -- calling for his resignation, effectively forcing his departure.

Franken, in his speech, noted his original plan regarding an ethics investigation, which he thought would help. And he argued that “some of the allegations against me are simply not true. Others, I remember very differently.”

Franken also suggested that him leaving elected office while President Trump remains in the Oval Office after bragged on tape about his history of sexual misconduct is "ironic."

You do know that not only is this not your state --- it's not even your country. You know that, right?

I mean I don't see a whole lot of posts here about some riding in Alberta.

Canadians should be concerned. When America prospers, so does the rest of the world, especially our illustrious neighbors to the North.

True enough, but this guy is posting about minutiae of a US state Congresscritter's tenure. That's got zippo to do with "when America (by which we assume you mean only the US part of it) prospers".

Anyone we get from those Fools in Minnesota (Only State to vote for Mondale) is going to be a Bolshevik Turd just like Al Franken.

Still, it is good to change out the Turds every know and then, and get a fresh one in.

Maybe they'll sent us one of their Somailians they are so proud of....that would be interesting and no Somalian would be any worse than Al Franken.

You have no idea how right you are. Living in the recently "liberated" red state of Wisconsin, it is un-nerving that to the west of me lies the large liberal wasteland of Minnesota, to the the east of me is the Muslim-overrun state of Michigan, and to the south is the leftist hell hole of Illinois.

Is it any wonder why we have so many guns and so much ammunition here?

Oh my, now this would be different...

Al Franken drags out Senate departure, only mentions ‘transition’ after replacement named

No, he's right. The sooner we get the obstructionists voted out of the state representatives, the sooner we can get on with this greatening of America. The only thing people like Franken and my own representative Tammy Baldwin do, is vote against everything the Republicans are for: That's the entire purpose they serve: To be against something. They're never for anything, just against everything.

The shitheads need to go.
