Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse took the opportunity to denounce his colleague Al Franken for sexually harassing and groping Leeann Tweeden.
Oh, wait. No he didn’t:

Sheldon Whitehouse kinda put his foot in his mouth over it.

Shame on him!
.@SenWhitehouse tells reporters: “You guys need to find something more interesting” when asked about Franken allegations.

Update:
Well, it appears that Sen. Whitehouse’s remarks didn’t get a fair shake:
I must clarify: it appears @SenWhitehouse made this comment in passing *before* he was directly asked about the Franken allegations.

Before? That’s pretty important, no?
Pretty big freakin' clarification, don't you think?
Let's see how many RTs the "clarification" gets vs. the original.
See, I do it for Democrats, too. Truth more important than party. https://t.co/hfkoL2yxH2
