Photo of Democratic senator groping news anchor Leeann Tweeden goes viral
Progressives aligned with the Bernie Sanders camp called for replacing disgraced Sen. Al Franken with a fellow Minnesota Democrat, Rep. Keith Ellison, as support grew Friday for the senators resignation.
Justice Democrats, a group of former Sanders campaign staffers and others prominent leftists, launched a petition Thursday asking Mr. Franken to resign following the release of a photo showing him groping Leeann Tweeden as she slept on a 2006 USO tour.
Franken must go. We do not tolerate those who abuse their power, said Justice Democrats PAC executive director Saikat Chakrabarti in a statement. Representative Keith Ellison has a proven track record of integrity and fighting for progressive principles.
Mr. Ellison, the deputy chair of the Democratic National Committee, has a record as one of the most liberal members of Congress. He became the first Muslim to serve in Congress in 2007.

Of course none of this has to do with protecting women or morality.
Al Frankin is in the way of destroying Roy Moore before moving on the Trump.
Ugh. Franken is a bad joke, but Ellison isn’t someone who needs a career boost.
Hmm. From scuzzy to Muzzie. Not sure if you would be getting much of an upgrade, Minnesota.
Doesn’t Ellison”s religion think of women as 2nd class citizens?
Franken steals an election, gets caught acting like a pig, and we end up with an extreme left wing Muslim in the Senate.
Ellisons District would be a sure win for a Democrat if a special election were held.
Franken was a jerk before he was senator, and is still a jerk. That isn’t grounds for booting him from office.
The fact that he openly stole the election, now that is grounds for booting him out, if GOP had any nerve and Justice had any integrity.
Just what we need, a rabid muslim in the senate
Looks like Gillibrand/Ellison in 2020. At least we’re allowed to say he’s a muslim.
Wow, serving in the Senate with a lesbian AND a Muslim? Love to be there when Senator Moore meets one or the other.
Minnesota is getting more red. We could probably take out Ellison.
You are 100% right about going after Trump. And Mueller’s charges against him will be brutal, devastating and fake. But the media will leave out the fake part and scared Republicans would vote to impeach. I fear for the Republic. An avalanche of true conservatives sent to Congress would answer this problem
Ya gotta wonder what old Hubert Horatio Humphrey would think of all this.
NOW and feminists everywhere: "What religion?"
We need to pray BOTH of them out of the picture.
From bad to worse.
Yes, but why should that matter? /S
Ellison needs exposure of his fanatic extremist Muslim communism.
