Republican State Sen. Bill Kintner announced his resignation at a news conference Wednesday in Nebraska’s state Capitol following his retweet of a Twitter post involving three Women’s March on Washington participants that seemingly made light of sexual assault.
Kintner, of Papillion, Neb., retweeted a comment Sunday by Larry Elder, a Los Angeles-based conservative radio personality, that mocked women pictured on Saturday with “Not this p—y” signs. The women were protesting President Donald Trump’s recorded 2005 comments about touching women inappropriately.
Elder wrote above the photo: “Ladies, I think you’re safe.”
