Weiner still hasn't officially resigned
Source: Politico

Four days after telling the world he was resigning from Congress, Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) still hasn't officially left office.

House Speaker John Boehner has yet to receive a copy of the sexting-scandalized Weiner’s resignation letter, spokesman Michael Steel said Monday.

Weiner and his wife, Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin, were last seen at a Long Island supermarket en route to the Hamptons. His spokesman told the New York Post Sunday that Weiner’s office is open for business.

Upon Weiner’s resignation, the House clerk’s office will assume responsibilities for running his office.

2. Well, he gave them their blood and shut them up.
I hope he doesn't resign now. He should not. The whole thing's ridiculous.

6. Why is Politico still covering
everything Anthony Weiner does? They have already (along with the rest of the MSM and the two sides of the coin Corporate Party) destroyed his career. So why? Don't they have anything else to cover? Aren't there any WARS, NATURAL DISASTERS, VAST GAPS IN INCOME INEQUALITY, PROPOSED CUTS TO OUR NATIONS SAFETY NETS WHILE THE ULTRA WEALTHY AND LARGEST CORPORATIONS PAY RECORD LOW TAX RATES?? Nothing else going on??

18. Don't know what you are talking about--I was commenting
on an OP originally posted in LBN when it clearly didn't belong there and then later turned out to be false. I don't know about anything pertaining to 'having your back'. I have no idea who you are.
