Weiner Leaving

Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) has decided to resign, following the revelations that he exchanged sexually explicit messages and photographs of himself with women he met online, a Democratic source confirmed Thursday morning.


Weiner informed House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Rep. Steve Israel (D-N.Y.), chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, of his decision Wednesday night, a senior Democratic aide said.

A former porn actress says Rep. Anthony Weiner asked her to lie about their online communications. Ginger Lee spoke at a news conference Wednesday in Manhattan with celebrity attorney Gloria Allred.

His office said he would address reporters at 2 p.m., at a senior citizens center in Brooklyn.

Weiner’s decision comes weeks after he posted a suggestive picture of himself--intended as a private message to a college student in Washington state--to his public Twitter account.
