NEVER GO FULL NAZI: DSCC Chair Gillibrand: Oysterführer Uber Alles, or Tomorrow Belongs to Dems. “In 2017, Kirsten Gillibrand helped push Al Franken out of the Senate without even an Ethics Committee investigation.

That’s not exactly nothing, but it all took place before Franken won his Senate seat. Rather than investigate the allegations for truth and context, Gillibrand insisted that the allegations alone were disqualifying. . . .
