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."

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".

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.

Actually that's not for you to say. It's for the citizens of Minnesota. And you just admitted to being in Wiscaaaaaaaahhhhnsin.

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

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.

Yyyyeah ummm.... I don't live in Minnesota either. Which is why you don't see me posting about it.

Brian Mulroney huh? The PM who bottomed out at, what was it, 11% approval rating?
Rump's gong for that record, eh?

Yeah......and because you're not from there you have no right to say anything about what's going on there........

,......except Al Franken works in Washington, and everything he does in Washington effects us all.

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.

Which is why you should ...because you're not from Minnesota, your fucking opinion is worth less than a bucket of spit.

 

[Wry Catcher]

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?

Hater's gotta hate ^^^. I wonder what this ^^^ hater dreams about?

I suspect he takes his gun to the movie theater or the Piggly Wiggly hoping to kill someone committing a crime and be hailed as a hero.

A Senator represents the state that elected him, in this case Minnesota.

He does not represent Tennessee, he does not represent fake-Canada, and he does not represent "Wetwang with Fimber, Yorkshire". He represents ..... Minnesota.

So? I've in Texas, California, Missouri, Georgia, and Illinois. This is a great place to live. We have a great Republican governor who busted the balls of the labor unions and the progressive movement. We have a great people, we actually have four seasons, we have beer, cheese, snowmobile races in the winter and monster truck mud races in the summer, we have turkey and deer hunting, and we have one of the best concealed carry laws in the country. I have a three bedroom 2-bath house on 60 acres of wooded land with a spring-fed creek running through it, and 60 miles either way to two large cities.

I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

I don't "take" a gun, I wear one. Just like I do boots, a hat, or a coat. It's not something you consciously "take" with you when you leave the house, and I've worn one every day for the last 7 years.

During that time, not once has my Glock 19 jumped up out of its holster and shot anyone, not that it hasn't been tempted to. But you see, when I got that little card that indicates that I'm a "trusted individual" by my state and federal governments, I gave up my right to be an asshole. I suggest you do the same.

Which is why I question an OP who's not only not in Minnesota but not even in the United States. Which is the first (1st) thing I noted here.

Fucking DUH.

I am a member of a few forums, including a Canadian one where believe it or not they hate me much more than on here and attack me ruthlessly, I am entertained by it. They hate that I openly tell them I am being screwed by the police in Canada and wish for me to be silent. Another irony, I get along very well with all of the American members of the board, save for one. I have healthy debates with them and had one American stand up for me strongly for my right to speak, he also told me that my experiences reflect extremely poorly on Canada, he couldn't imagine it would happen in America without consequences. I have had some private messages of support and respect that I believe in liberty, I'm not some docile, knee bending coward.

Americans, like the French and Brits, are more open to debate and fact finding. You built your country fighting an aggressive force that engaged in diabolical tactics to try and make America submit. You have been fighting for liberty, your first and second amendment forever, Due Process, Rule of Law. You openly question federal agencies, something that rarely happens in Canada and certainly not in the lengths Americans go. So, call me an American who isn't an American who happens to live across the border.

I was first called an American in 1984 during the Los Angeles Olympics when as a kid I rooted or Americans to win gold (when I wasn't rooting for Canada). One of my Aunts said "Americans know they are going to win anyways, they thump their chests" and I thought to myself, "so, why not?". I was always competitive in sports, though a good loser. I never rubbed it in peoples face, but I never thought someone winning for their country should be shy about it. I respect winners and also those who aren't happy with their results and drive themselves to be better. You might lose, but you improve. Even if you lose, you win in my eyes. This is the America I remember and I feel you and much of The West have lost 30 years.

Trump is cut from the cloth of Reagan. He might not speak the same, he might be even more unconventional, but many of his beliefs are the same. I hope that not only does he succeed, but that he influences Canada, and the next president to focus on economy winning, not focusing on division and micro aggression.

It's understandable how Canadians should be concerned with what's happening in Minnesota. After all, they share a common border. A very disturbing thing about Minnesota is the high number of Somalian Muslims living there. Several years ago, the FBI has some of the Somalian mosques under surveillance. Some of the members of those mosques disappeared from the radar, only to show up fighting alongside al Qaeda in the Middle East. Minnesota is a breeding ground for Islamic radicalization and it has also been suspected that there are terrorist training camps located somewhere in the state.

If I were a Canadian knowing that was going on just to the south of me, I'd be a little nervous.

They hate that I openly tell them I am being screwed by the police in Canada and wish for me to be silent. Another irony, I get along very well with all of the American members of the board, save for one. I have healthy debates with them and had one American stand up for me strongly for my right to speak, he also told me that my experiences reflect extremely poorly on Canada, he couldn't imagine it would happen in America without consequences. I have had some private messages of support and respect that I believe in liberty, I'm not some docile, knee bending coward.

Americans, like the French and Brits, are more open to debate and fact finding. You built your country fighting an aggressive force that engaged in diabolical tactics to try and make America submit. You have been fighting for liberty, our first and second amendment forever. You openly question federal agencies, something that rarely happens in Canada and certainly not in the lengths Americans go. So, call me an American who isn't an American who happens to live across the border.

I was first called an American in 1984 during the Los Angeles Olympics when as a kid I rooted or Americans to win gold (when I wasn't rooting for Canada). One of my Aunts said "Americans know they are going to win anyways, they thump their chests" and I thought to myself, "so, why not?". I was always competitive in sports, though a good loser. I never rubbed it in peoples face, but I never thought someone winning for their country should be shy about it. I respect winners and also those who aren't happy with their results and drive themselves to be better. You might lose, but you improve.

This is the America I remember and I feel you have lost 30 years. Trump is cut from the cloth of Reagan. He might not speak the same, he might be even more unconventional, but many of his beliefs are the same. I hope that not only does he succeed, but that he influences Canada, and the next president to focus on economy winning, not focusing on division and micro aggression.

It's understandable how Canadians should be concerned with what's happening in Minnesota. After all, they share a common border. A very disturbing thing about Minnesota is the high number of Somalian Muslims living there. Several years ago, the FBI has some of the Somalian mosques under surveillance. Some of the members of those mosques disappeared from the radar, only to show up fighting alongside al Qaeda in the Middle East. Minnesota is a breeding ground for Islamic radicalization and it has also been suspected that there are terrorist training camps located somewhere in the state.

If I were a Canadian knowing that was going on just to the south of me, I'd be a little nervous.

Meh, he's right, I'm not particularly interested in MN per se, I am more interested in Texas or just the U.S success in general. Some of the ideals expressed by American politicians is so unique and refreshing, it's why U.S politics are of interest to people all around the globe. You can check Rand Paul speeches on youtube and see how many fans he has around the globe, it's amazing.

Values that are so American and which many citizens know are natural and the "right" values for all Men.

 

[Pogo]

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".

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.

Actually that's not for you to say. It's for the citizens of Minnesota. And you just admitted to being in Wiscaaaaaaaahhhhnsin.

Which is why you should ...because you're not from Minnesota, your fucking opinion is worth less than a bucket of spit.

Which is why I question an OP who's not only not in Minnesota but not even in the United States. Which is the first (1st) thing I noted here.

Fucking DUH.

Cool story bro, eh?

I don't think you're "not some docile, knee bending coward"; I think you're an impostor troll pretending to be a Canadian in some sick role-play so you can come off as a "credible outside source". Probably sitting in Kansas or somewhere. Maybe even Minnesota and you can't admit it.

Honestly I laughed at that one, and I understand your thinking. I was born and live in Toronto. Ask me some Canadian questions, I'll answer them fast. Maple Leaf stars of the past? Mats Sundin number 13, Doug Gilmour #93. The Joe Carter HR against Wild Thing in the World Series in '93? Dave Winfield in 1992? Go ahead, ask away

Well thank you very much. Out of all the Democracies and constitutional republics in this world, we hit on some ideas that actually worked. Those old dead white men who wrote our constitution must have known a thing or two.
