Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) will resign, sources confirmed to The Huffington Post, making him the first Congressman whose career was wrecked by indiscretions on Twitter.

Weiner, who mistakenly tweeted a photo of his underwear-clad erection last month and then lied to cover it up, has been under escalating pressure to quit as one embarrassing revelation after another came to light. The New York Times was first to report on Thursday that he had succumbed to that pressure.

Rep. Nita Lowey (D-N.Y.) issued the following statement on Weiner's expected resignation: "There is life after Congress for Anthony Weiner and I hope he devotes himself to repairing the damage he caused to his personal life.”

House Democrats from New York and neighboring states offered varying opinions regarding whether Weiner should be resigning over the scandal. “His life and breath was here, outside of his family,” said Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.), who wouldn’t say if he has spoken to Weiner this week.
