Just has to show for votes, that’s all.
Some important ones coming…

And I’m absolutely fine with that.
Has she been captured on video yet? All these comments were in a written statement.

“I’m back,” she announced, “but don’t expect me to do anything. I don’t care; I don’t have to. And I’m going to stay in office until I’m wheeled to the morgue.”

Fair enough. Hopefully she remains cogent until the next election.

Totes the the same…

Is this the same doctor who didn’t tell an 89-year-old to get the gddmn shingles vaccine?
Or has Feinstein decided to take this advice because she ignored the earlier advice to get the vaccine?

Seniority isn’t. Neither is failing memory.
And there are many, many miles between the two.
Term limits is a horrible and far too blunt a tool for this.
Joe Biden would never have gained the experience he has that has deftly kept Russia tied up for like no money…

That’s a textbook example of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
