You and Thurgreed keep thinking this is some sort of search for justice. It's not. He was caught being creepy at a time where that was hurting the party and would have kept hurting the party. He had to go.

Are these not of a nature and infrequency over an extended timeline that cries out for due process? Should Franken not be allowed to defend himself, even if his defense is, "I've made mistakes in the past, but I vow not to do so in the future?

No one was charged with a crime or punished.
