Wasn’t Al Franken(stein) also part of the D.C. Pageboy Prostitution Scandal?

As a renowned sodomite and notorious politician, it’s no great surprise to learn of his antics regarding the sexual harassment, of those noted.

But alas, he was allowed to fade into obscurity as he slithered away from the spotlight!

The New Yorker article provides missing context to the harassment charges. I'm no fan of Franken as either a comedian or politician or ugly Jew, but the charges really boil down to 2 unproven incidents - he touched her tits while she was asleep and he tongue-kissed her during a rehearsal. The first contact isn't shown in the photo. It's shtick/staged not real. She's wearing a flak jacket. And the second wasn't reported to anyone else during the tour. There seems to be a feminist agenda that supersedes the Jewish one is this case. People lie to take political advantage. Both sides do it.
