Embattled U.S. Senator Al Franken has two children with his wife Franni Bryson. Franken met his wife while the two were at Harvard together. Their eldest child is daughter Thomasin. Like her parents, Thomasin has a degree from Harvard as well as the French Culinary Institute. Though these days, Thomasin runs charter schools in Washington D.C. Thats in addition running an organization in D.C known as D.C. Prep.
In October 2011, Thomasin married Brody Konow Greenwald, a lawyer and Duke University graduate, in Broad Run, Virginia, at a friends home, according to their New York Times wedding announcement. The announcement also says that Thomasin will keep her maiden name. The Frankens also have a son named Joe Franken who works in finance.

It is kind of interesting to see how the other half lives. Franken's daughter seems like she is a well credentialed successful woman and his son works in "finance". If they were conservatives they would be the poster family for white privilege.

When one notices some of the Harvard attendees, does it make you wonder about their standards? 👹

Given some of the stories here about Franken, I’m not at all surprised his daughter created a fictional character called “STUPID DADDY.”

Is he entitled to molest her while she’s asleep too or is that only other people’s daughters?
He belongs in jail.

Probably not but it helps explain why they fight so hard for "social justice". You can make a great living giving away other people's money and networking yourself with other elites.
These are the next generation of aristocrats that want to rule your kin.

Very interesting, thanks.
It’s important to remember that children are not their parents, and not responsible for their parents actions or beliefs.

One tidbit about Al:
“According to an analysis by Kaiser Family Foundation, He wrote the biggest cost-saving measure in Obamacare and its already saved consumers and small businesses billions of dollars by forcing insurance companies to spend at least 80 percent of premium dollars on actual health care, not marketing or CEO salaries.”

Just a bit of interest on the name Thomasin. The two heroines of Thomas Hardy's classic novel,
The Return of the Native. are Thomasin and Eustacia. My spouse refused to have my two daughters named for them. She conceded the names as middle names. I think they are happy with this.
Just where did Al Franken get this very rare first name would be of interest. In Hardy's novel she is referred to often as Tamsin. Hardy's novels are based on life in the 1840's or so in Dorset, England
