Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand said both pundit Mark Halprin and former Sen. Al Franken men are entitled to a 'path to redemption' after being accused of sexual misconduct
he sexually harassed them, groped them, pressed his genitals against their bodies and made inappropriate advances.While Halperin has apologized for some of his behavior, he’s denied many of the accusations.
For the book, which is set to be released in November, Halperin interviewed more than 75 top Democratic operatives on how to beat President Donald Trump in 2020.and the operatives who participated in it was swift, with his accusers expressing outrage and some noting that he has yet to apologize to them.
Asked whether she disapproved of the operatives who chose to participate in the book, Gillibrand demurred, saying she was unfamiliar with the particulars of the allegations against Halperin.Gillibrand’s struggling campaign has reportedly beenby her aggressiveness toward her former colleague and friend — she was the first senator to call for Franken’s resignation, though nearly three dozen others soon followed her — as Democratic donors threatened a backlash over the move.
When it came to Franken, Gillibrand expressed confusion on Monday about “why this conversation is so difficult. Anyone who wants a second chance, it’s always there for everyone. We’re a country that believes in second chances.”
