'Blood in the water': Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan calls on both John Conyers and Al Franken to resign

For what it’s worth, Al Franken is a senator and not the House’s mess to clean up, but it’s good to know that Franken’s wishy-washy apology and promise to do better hasn’t placated everyone in D.C.

Ryan, who challenged Pelosi in 2016 for her leadership position, has clashed with her before, calling her a “damaged leader” — is he really applauding her call for Conyers to resign, or is he just anxious to clear the entrenched Democrat bench a bit?
