Longtime Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) is showing clear signs of cognitive decline, according to a new report, leaving her colleagues in Congress scrambling for ways to persuade her to retire before her term expires in 2024.

quote:

“I have worked with her for a long time and long enough to know what she was like just a few years ago: always in command, always in charge, on top of details, basically couldn’t resist a conversation where she was driving some bill or some idea,” the lawmaker said. “All of that is gone. She was an intellectual and political force not that long ago, and that’s why my encounter with her was so jarring. Because there was just no trace of that.”

The Chronicle report, which cited four of Feinstein’s Senate colleagues and three former staffers as well as the House member, indicated that the 88-year-old’s memory is rapidly deteriorating and her staff does much of her work.

quote:

The senator defended her performance in a statement shared with the Chronicle as well as The Post, saying: “The last year has been extremely painful and distracting for me, flying back and forth to visit my dying husband who passed just a few weeks ago. But there’s no question I’m still serving and delivering for the people of California, and I’ll put my record up against anyone’s.

She and Biden should play a game of checkers.

Loser must retire.

20 years ago a history prof at LSU-S told me we should elect more women to Congress because they are more moderate instead of left/right.
Me: 'Name a female moderate in Congress right now.'
Him: 'Diane Feinstein.'

Its a shame that she'll just be replaced by a younger, more radically progressive version of herself.

Shame on her for not stepping down- a long time ago. Shame on her! She could have spent more time with her husband, children and grandchildren during the end of her husband’s life and during the last few years of her own full cognitive abilities, and she chose to serve “The Party” instead. She definitely isn’t serving the people of California whom she is supposed to be representing. Shame on her. She’s getting what she deserves just like Biden.

You hate to see it. Not being sarcastic. At the end, if you live long enough, everything is stripped away. Thinking that could be my fate horrifies me.

Think I found the problem. Everywhere else people are working their butts off to try and retire by the time they are 60. Only politicians cling on to their jobs for life

No no no, 20 years ago she should have been arrested for employing a chinese spy as a limo driver and assistant....but the FBI swept that under the rug a few years ago. They always accuse others of what they are directly guilty of.

Hell 20 years ago they were relatively moderate. Pelosi was relatively moderate too and she and Feinstein came out of the same S.F. political machine.

Obama pushed the party radically left and the old guard are scared of this new woke breed of Democrats like The Squad.
