question:
1.  He  was resigning  his  seat by the end of the year.
2.  He  didn't believe  he  had done anything for which  he  should have been forced to resign.
 Franken 's speech was defined primarily by  his  lack of any real apology and the clear bitterness  he  carries for being pushed out amid allegations that  he  had groped several women and forcibly tried to kiss others.
Here's the key bit from  Franken  (bolding is mine):
That's a remarkable statement.  Franken  is simultaneously saying that  he  believes the women who have accused  him  have a right to be heard while also making very clear that  he  is not admitting  he  had done the things they alleged.
 He  went on to note that "I know in my heart that nothing I have done as a senator  nothing has brought dishonor on this institution " adding: "I am confident that the ethics committee would agree."
And  just in case there was any question that  Franken  believed  he  was being unfairly railroaded  the senator's turn to Donald Trump and Roy Moore cleared all that up.
Said  Franken :
"I am leaving while a man who has bragged on tape about  his  history of sexual assault sits in the Oval Office and a man who repeatedly preyed on young girls campaigns for the Senate with the full support of his party. But this decision is not about me. It's about the people of Minnesota."
 Franken  got support in that view from an unlikely source on Thursday: Former Bush White House press secretary Ari Fleischer. " Franken  should not have resigned.  His  fate should have been left 2 the people of MN. Moore  who had sexual contact w a 14-yr old  should drop out. Conyers  who hit on his employees  should have resigned.  Franken  is a creep who acted inappropriatly  but  his  facts are different " tweeted Fleischer shortly after  Franken 's resignation announcement.
The second part of  Franken 's conclusion will have a lot of Democratic heads nodding. Why is  Franken  resigning for allegations of groping and unwanted kissing while Trump is in office after more than a dozen women accused him during the campaign of sexual harassment? Why is  Franken  resigning when Roy Moore  who faces multiple allegations of pursuing relationships with teenagers as young as 14 when  he  was in  his  30s  is looking more and more like a winner in next Tuesday's special election?
Those are fair questions. The simple reason is because  Franken  gave in to the pressure to step aside while Trump and Moore just kept saying they didn't do anything wrong and had no plans to leave their respective races. And the political willpower didn't exist in Alabama or the country to get rid of them.
But the first part of  Franken 's contention -- that  he  did not do anything wrong and these women were either mistaken or misremembering -- will sit less well even with  his  most ardent supporters.
If  Franken  truly believes -- as  he  said -- that  he  did nothing wrong here  then why is  he  resigning?  His  explanation was that  he  couldn't simultaneously deal with an ethics investigation and represent the state effectively. But  he  was the one who called for an ethics investigation when  he  announced last week that  he  was planning to stay on the job and work to win back the trust of  his  colleagues and  his  constituents!
The answer is that almost three dozen of  Franken 's colleagues called for  him  to step down over the last 24 hours -- including a united front of Democratic female senators . There was just no way that  Franken  could realistically stay on amid that depth of condemnation. (Although  per Trump and Moore  maybe he could have.)
 Franken  bowed to what he believed to be the inevitable political reality facing him. But in so doing   he  wanted to make sure everyone -- in the chamber and outside of it -- didn't see  his  resignation as an admission of guilt. Because  Franken  just doesn't think  he 's guilty.

question:
Actor John Bradley  who plays Sam  Tarly  told TV Guide that characters are going to keep being pushed by new elements and traveling the seven kingdoms deeper and faster than ever before.
"Each of the characters this year is placed in a completely alien environment at some point in the season that they've never been placed in before "  Bradley  said. "The thrill is seeing how they react to it and how they respond... This season  I think  more than any other is stretching these characters."
But  Bradley 's comments are intriguing from a character perspective. An alien environment isn't necessarily a physical place; it's an unfamiliar situation (Arya  no longer sniffing out traitors)  an important task (Cersei trying to play nice with others)  or a new threat (White! Walkers!).
"The stakes definitely feel ramped up  " Bradley  told TV Guide. "We know that we've got a real job to do. This has been a part of people's lives for so many years. This is our eighth season  and we are kind of feeling the pressure to get it right because we want to satisfy people...we just kind of want to give them an ending that they deserve."
answer:
'Game of Thrones' characters will keep traveling in Season 8


question:
Before driving 11 hours to break into a famous YouTube coupleâs home   Christopher Giles  made notes about one of the YouTubers  police say.
 Giles   23  is accused of breaking into the Austin  Texas  house of Free and Megan Turney on Jan. 26. Armed with a gun   Giles  allegedly searched the house for the couple  who hid in a closet and called 911. Investigators claim  Giles  was there to kill  but  Giles  was the only one to wind up dead.
 Giles  was âan avid player of video games and was known for watching YouTube videos that were centered on  his  hobby â according to an affidavit obtained by  Giles â hometown newspaper  the Albuquerque Journal.
The hobby led  him  to Turney  a popular YouTuber who posts about video games and anime  where she has more than 300 000 followers. One of the few Facebook pages  he  liked was that of Rooster Teeth  a video game-centric production company where Turney is a former on-screen personality.
 Giles  âdeveloped a fondness of Turney â according to the affidavit  which references notes investigators found on  Giles â phone.  He  had no such fondness for Turneyâs boyfriend  Free  who is best known for  his  YouTube channel the Slow Mo Guys  where  he  and a friend have amassed more than 10 million followers for the slow-motion videos.
 Giles  âresented Free for  his  lifestyle and success â the affidavit claims. In one note on  his  phone   Giles  allegedly spelled out  his  death wish for the famous YouTuber. âI want Gavin Free to die alone  with no children â  Giles  reportedly wrote.
In the days before the home invasion   Giles  was âsingle  lonely and disturbed â a detective said in a search warrant for his home. He also had a history of brushes with the law  beginning with a vehicle citation in 2014  court records show. In October 2015  he pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct. The next year  he pleaded no contest to marijuana and drug paraphernalia charges.
But in January 2018   Giles  plotted a serious crime  investigators allege.
Turney and Free live in Austin  Texas  approximately 11 hours from the Rio Rancho  New Mexico  home where  Giles  lived alone. After driving the entire way   Giles  arrived at the home around 3:40 a.m. on Jan. 26.
Gun in hand   Giles  allegedly roamed the house the house looking for the couple. Based on surveillance footage  âit was apparent that  Giles â sole intent was to cause harm to someone who resides there â a search warrant said.
He eventually gave up and left  climbing back into his car. But as  Giles  was pulling from Turney and Freeâs driveway  police arrived. They ordered him out of the car. Instead  police say  they heard him fire a single shot inside the vehicle. One officer fired on the car. When they opened approached the car again   Giles  was dead.
On social media   Giles â would-be victims downplayed the incident.
