Allegations of Al Franken reported to the public

Leeann Tweedan, a radio host, claimed that Al Franken, current Minnesota’s junior Democratic senator, inappropriately groped her years ago and forcibly kissed her during a reversed skit for U.S. troops overseas. Since then, Franken has apologized, writing in a statement “While I don’t remember the rehearsal for the skit as Leeann does, I understand why we need to listen to and believe women’s experiences.”
