Though he previously claimed that he could not say "with certitude" that the notorious gray underwear-covered crotch shot was his, embattled Congressman Anthony Weiner admitted to tweeting a lewd photo to a woman in Seattle at a press conference Monday afternoon. He apologized with tears in his eyes, telling the world the photo "was of me, and I sent it." The New York Democratic representative explained that when he realized that it was posted on Twitter, he panicked, and then lied, claiming he was hacked. Weiner also confessed to inappropriate exchanges with at least six other women, some prior to and others during his marriage to Huma Abedin, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's aide. Still, Weiner would not let his online activity ruin his career—he refused to resign from office and says he and Abedin will stay together. "We will weather this," Weiner said. "I love her very much and she loves me."
