Bill Maher is mocking a now-infamous photo of former Sen. Al Franken Alan (Al) Stuart FrankenPeterson faces fight of his career in deep-red Minnesota district Getting tight — the psychology of cancel culture Tina Smith wins Democratic Senate primary in Minnesota MORE in which the Minnesota Democrat appears to grope a sleeping woman.

The image with comedian Bob Saget shows Maher replicating Franken’s pose and expression in a photo released by Leeann Tweeden in November. Tweeden, a TV host and sports commentator, claimed that Franken kissed and groped her without her consent in 2006 while the two were performing on a USO tour together.

Franken, 66, officially resigned from Congress on Tuesday, following pressure to step down after multiple women accused the “Saturday Night Live” alum of sexual misconduct following Tweeden’s accusations.

While many Twitter users applauded Maher’s post, some criticized the humor attempt, calling it in “poor taste” and “not funny.”

Franken appeared as a guest on Maher’s show back in August to promote his book, “Al Franken: Giant of the Senate,” before the women’s allegations came to light. At the time, Maher introduced Franken as “a great American.”
