Senator Dianne Feinstein has died at the age of 90, shortly after her return to Congress following a bout of shingles, according to Punchbowl News' Jake Sherman.

Feinstein returned to the Senate in May after a two-month battle with shingles, where she appeared to be unaware of her own extended absence. When a reporter asked him how her colleagues have received her upon her return, she said, "No, I've been here. I've been voting." She concluded by scolding the reporter.

In July, Feinstein appeared to be completely lost during a Senate Appropriations Committee session which required staff assistance.
When called on for a simple "aye" or "nay" vote, the 90-year-old launched into a speech supporting the measure. Only after 15 seconds of awkwardness did she heed repeated commands to "just say aye" - - instructions issued by both committee chair Patty Murray and one of Feinstein's staffers.

For more than a year, Feinstein's mental decline has been chronicled by even the most liberal newspapers. Last year, the Times and San Francisco Chronicle published insider accounts of Feinstein being unable to remember names, meetings and phone conversations. The Times described her as sometimes "walk[ing] around in a state of befuddlement."
Upon her return, Capitol Hill observers noticed that Nancy Pelosi's daughter was escorting Feinstein all around the Capitol. The motive is likely more than charitable: Rep. Adam Schiff, a Pelosi ally, wants Feinstein's seat and desperately wanted her to hang on through the 2024 election.
That's because California Governor Gavin Newsom has already promised that, in the event of an early Feinstein departure, he would appoint a black woman. One of Schiff's declared opponents is Rep. Barbara Lee. If appointed, she'd enter the 2024 race with the power of incumbency.

There it is. Big Mike's foot in the door.
Probably won't happen. It's too soon to tip their hand.

I'd better start dinner. I may not be in any shape to do it later.

He said he would appoint a black woman which, of course, has Adam Schiff wailing and gnashing his teeth because he wants the job. Best bet is Barbara Lee.

Regardless, whatever negress Gruesome Newsome appoints, will make Feinstein look like a piker leftist. The only saving grace is she will be a newb to the Senate and nobody will pay her any attention.
Good, he's a JAFP. (Just another faggot pedo)
