On Thursday, KABC radio host Leeann Tweeden came forward accusing Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., of kissing and groping her without her consent during a USO tour in 2006.

Franken’s good friend, Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., told the Washington Examiner that he’s “deeply disturbed” by Tweeden’s harrowing story and commended her for speaking out.
