No surprise here; when the President said that if he were in Anthony Weiner’s situation he’d resign, it was just a matter of time: Anthony D. Weiner Tells Friends He Will Resign.

The top Democratic official said Mr. Weiner called Representative Nancy Pelosi of California and Representative Steve Israel of New York last night while they were at the White House picnic to inform them he had decided to resign on Thursday.

Mr. Weiner plans to resign in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, at 2 p.m. , at the spot where he announced his first campaign for City Council in 1992, according to two people told of his plans.
