'F*** Alito!' Former Democratic Sen. Al Franken drops f-bombs about Supreme Court justices



Demonstrating an utter dearth of decorum, former U.S. Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) dropped f-bombs in a profane tweet targeting multiple Supreme Court justices.

Franken unleashed the vitriolic attack against Justices Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, John Roberts, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett, six figures who are widely regarded as the court's conservative contingent. All six were nominated by Republican presidents.

"F*** Alito! Sometimes profanity is appropriate. For example, on the anniversary of the Dobbs decision. So… also f*** Thomas, Roberts, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Coney Barett. But especially Alito. VOTE! #RoevWade," Franken tweeted on Saturday.

Franken resigned from the Senate in late 2017 after women made accusations against him. A now-infamous photo shows Franken smiling for the camera with his fingers positioned either on or over the flak jacket on a woman's chest while she was sleeping.

Franken has said he regrets resigning from office.

Last year, leftists were incensed that the Supreme Court returned to states the full authority to determine whether to ban abortions. The opinion marked a massive win for the pro-life movement, but Democrats decried the ruling as a "dark day" for the country.

"Abortion presents a profound moral question. The Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion. Roe and Casey arrogated that authority. We now overrule those decisions and return that authority to the people and their elected representatives," the opinion reads.

Chief Justice Roberts indicated that he did not think the high court should have completely overturned Roe and Casey when making the ruling.

Al Franken is worried Republicans will investigate Hunter Biden and impeach Joe Biden if they win Congress



Comedian and former Democratic Congressman Al Franken said he was worried that Republicans would investigate Hunter Biden and impeach President Joe Biden if they took control of Congress in the midterm elections.

Franken made the comments on election day while a panelist on CNN.

"What I worry about, of course, if the Republicans take over, whether it's by a small margin or a large margin ... [is that,] first of all, we're not gonna be able to pass anything," said Franken.

"Secondly, there will be hearings, there'll be investigations. They'll investigate Hunter Biden, it'll be very toxic. [Rep.] Marjorie Taylor Greene [R-Ga.] and those people will want to impeach Biden. Um, I worry about it just being very, very ugly," he added.

"And I'm pretty sure that's pretty predicable," he laughed.

Democrats hoped for a resurgence of support just ahead of election day, but exit polling and recent polls have bolstered the chances of Republicans retaking the House of Representatives and the Senate.

In March, top Republican Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio said that Republican leaders would consider impeaching Biden, if they gained control of Congress, over the president's “failures in office, most notably his administration’s inability to stop a massive influx of illegal immigration through the southern border.”

A poll in May also found that almost 70% of registered Republican voters said that Biden should be impeached if Republicans take control of Congress.

"Today, impeachment is no longer a final option, but one of many weapons to be used in an era of rampant partisan polarization to gain an upper hand on one’s partisan opponents," said UMass Amherst pollster Tatishe Nteta.

Franken gained popularity as a comedian and writer on "Saturday Night Live," but he became a national figure after he was narrowly elected to the U.S. Senate for Minnesota in 2008. He resigned from his seat 10 years later, after allegations of sexual harassment surfaced against him.

Here's the video of Franken's comments:
