I hope that everyone realizes the Franken story was a Russian intel op.


The Al Franken story was first championed by Fox News & InfoWars, was pushed heavily by Russian bots on social media ... and Roger Stone knew about it in advance.

Meaning Russian intelligence was behind it.

No matter what you think about Franken or sexual harassment in general, remember:

This Was A Russian Intel Operation.

Little different from launching a Spetsnaz incursion into Maine.

23. There is still the fact that the metadata shows that something was altered in July 2009.

Even if the date was a few days off, this looks suspicious.

Yes- the DUmpmonkiez are claiming the photo is faked.

 :thatsright:

4. That also means not only pushing for resignation, those into shaming the woman set our party up too.

63. So let me get this straight. If someone "shames" a woman who is helping the Russians,

that helps the Russians. I don't get this, I will refer it to the Moose and Squirrel.

64. Franken was spot on about the mock grab photo, expressed perfectly.

What does the left do? In his defense, throw up naked pictures to try and shame her. It was stupid. No different from, what was she wearing and too many on the left jumped in both feet.

Franken had it handled. That left, did not help him or us.

oops... obvious russian troll

35. Examine the time stamps on the tweets & see if Russo-tweeters were first with the most


That would indicate coordination and that Roger Stone may have given them notice. Tweeden said her radio station alerted their "news partners" before the actual release

9. Collect the evidence in one place

The other photos from the trip (of the accuser grabbing others)
The quotes from Franken's trip escort
The amplification via russian social media
The stories on infowars


Want to collect these, put them on a blog and link here? I'll share that blog post all over.

12. But WE can act NOW. CNN is bashing Franken and Clinton.

The time is now. CNN doesn't have an investigative arm anymore. TPM, Propublica, and Mother Jones can only do so much. If you have facts calling the Franken scandal into question - post them here, and we'll get them out to Tapper and the like.

13. I pine for the days before the Russians arrived on the scene.

There was no rat****ing.

RW trolls with alleged US addresses and GOP agendas didn't invade and set up camp in UK newspaper comments sections and chase most other people away.

Lots of other good times in those halcyon days.

24. Here's something to think about

We saw the picture. It was staged to make it look like Franken was groping, but he was NOT touching her. But that pic was used alongside her story about Franken forcibly kissing her. Franken says he doesn't remember it like that, but he'll give her the benefit of the doubt and apologize. Nothing here adds up. It's obvious they are trying to make a nothingburger into a Royal with cheese.

Tweeden has backed down. I think she may be getting afraid of what will happen to her if she continues to push this. On the other hand, the people who set her up are willing to throw her under the bus if it means making Franken look bad. If they keep pushing, I think Tweeden will have to recant. Already we have the pics of her grabbing the guitarist and humping Robin Williams. She may just have to (I hope she has to) backtrack and out those who set her up. Even if it's just Hannity, at least that asshole will be taken down a notch, and maybe Faux Nooze will lose some credibility with the nut jobs.

Franken knew what would happen and openly called for an investigation into his behavior. Now the ball is in the wingers' court and Tweeden is about to be sacrificed. Wonder what will happen to that book deal when she outs the nasties.

yes- it's a right wing trick to make Tweeden look bad...  :thatsright:

39. 👍🏾. I quit following the story once I saw the pics showing what tweeden really is.

It's enough for me to know she's a blatant, lying, trumpanzee POS, and that there's plenty of evidence backing that up. AND plenty of evidence showing Al is brilliant and has high scores for integrity. Pukes are afraid of him.

So much for believing the woman...

66. No. Russian intel AMPLIFIED the Franken story. Here is proof.

Below is a post amplifying the Franken story, from Nov 16th.

And below that is the output of a machine learning Russian-bot-detector. 10/10. Very likely to be a Russia bot - run by a Russian intel service.

linked to stupid leftist conspiracy page...

40. I don't know about how much of it was a Russian operation* but I have no doubt ....

.... that it was a hit job. Al knows that too and he is playing it perfect.


* the Russian troll bots were very busy here @ DU that day.

41. I always thought it looked like a bad joke-

I like Al Franken, and do not want to go down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole. The photo looks like little more than a bad joke, I mean they guy wasn't chasing underage girls in a mall to the point he was thrown out. This is simply not at the same level. What is even more outrageous is all the evangelicals still backing the guy in Alabama. We shouldn't even be talking about this, we need to go after the complete hypocrisy of these guys. That is the rabbit that needs to be chased down.

76. Really....sourcing for that claim? This should be interesting.

You do realize Senator Frankin admits what he did was wrong right?

77. I don't know what Senator Franklin says, but as for Sen. Al Franken

you do realize there's quite a difference between forcibly kissing an adult woman (at worst) during a comedy skit and being banned from a Mall for chasing underage girls and putting your hands down their pants? At least I hope so.

Yes- the first one really happened and we have a photo to prove it, the second is a fake hit job.

The poor primitives. If only they held sway over what people believed and didn't believe. But alas, they don't. Too bad for the primitives.

Okay DUmmies - lets assume that the photo is a joke, and the woman wasn't actually groped, and it was staged by Franken for the sake of 'humor'...

According to your own dogma, it is still assault.

When a privileged white male makes a joke about the victimization of women, it is wrongiddy wrong. When the privileged, white male makes a joke like this from a position of power ( a wealthy comedian/actor/politician certainly qualifies) that privileged, white male needs to have all positions of power stripped from him.

-- That is what your dogma says, that is what liberalism demands. If you deny acting on it because he is one of your own, then the tenants of your faith collapses into a crumbled pile of lies and hypocrisy.

 :thatsright: So Putin forced/drugged Franken into acting like a pig,forced/drugged the camera man to take the picture, and forced/drugged the tour people into including the picture in the package of tour pictures? :thatsright: For use 11 years later? :thatsright:

How does the source/process of the pictures being made public change the fact that Franken groped a sleeping woman, or came within a fraction of an inch of her pretending to grope her?


IT HAPPENED!!!

Putin must not have contributed enough to the Clintons in 2016, so he became a handy scapegoat (after failing to work as a red herring to scare conservatives away from Trump).
