Outgoing Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.), who resigned from office earlier this month amid sexual misconduct allegations, used his final speech from the Senate floor on Thursday to list President Donald Trump’s many lies. “As I leave the Senate, I have to admit that it feels like we are losing the war for truth,” he said. “Maybe it’s already lost.”“So what is to be done?” Franken said. Franken chose to resign after eight women publicly accused the senator of sexual misconduct, including unwanted groping, kissing and sexual advances. Dozens of Franken’s Democratic colleagues called on him to resign amid the allegations.
