Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., questions Mark Zuckerberg, Chief Executive Officer of Facebook, and Jack Dorsey, Chief Executive Officer of Twitter, during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Facebook and Twitter's actions around the closely contested election, Tuesday, Nov. 17, 2020 on Capitol Hill in Washington.
Feinstein, 87, said in a statement that she would not seek the position in the next Congress. She did not say why, but said she would instead focus on wildfire and drought issues and the effects of climate change, which are important in her home state. She plans to continue to serve on the Judiciary, Appropriations and intelligence panels, but said she will not seek the role of top Democrat on any of those committees.
Feinstein, first elected in 1992, has been a powerful force in the Democratic Party and is the former chairwoman of the intelligence panel. She has not shied from bipartisanship even as both parties have become increasingly polarized. Those actions put her immediately in the crosshairs of some influential liberals who had been questioning for some time whether she was right for the job.
DI FI CHIIIIII SPY GO BYE BYE 👋
No that's great news, by by ole woman.
Wonder if she’s gonna give linds a big hug now
JoseArmand37 Um She heard Comey’s testimony in private; literally went pale over the deal. Somehow she still managed to Fuk Democrats more than Republicans ever could
How about step down from the US Senate! The term “respect your elders” should only apply to those that retired...not those like Feinstein, Grassley, McConnell, etc who cling to power to preserve a world that no longer exists. TermLimits
chestnut_daniel She is WAY past her expiration date. I can say that because I’m older than dirt.
She should not do this. How the left has treated her is a disgrace.
Good now step all the way down you trader
Good!
_Politics Her husband owns 60% of Dominion software. Criminals need to go to prison! It was designed to cheat elections worldwide! Tell the real news!!!
I’m not surprised. The left is slowly but surely mobilizing into a fascist regime, canceling and ostracizing non-leftists from all facets of our culture. Pretty soon they will enforce their agenda through violence.
She needs to retire all together
Must punish all bipartisan behavior. It won’t be long before the Left consumes Biden also.
Maybe retire? Really should
She needs to leave the seat.
She needs to ride off into the sunset with all the other out of touch Dems that love to lose to Republicans.
About time! Why don't you simply retire all together? Just get out the way!!
It must have been just too appalling to her peers 'the hug'.
Democrats are not liberals they are far from it!!! Please drop this name from your party system. Thank you.
Please look into how she and her husband acquired wealth.
she showed humanity and hugged an enemy. she is no longer fit to serve the democrats, just like ellen.
She needs to RETIRE. Goodbye Dianne.
KellyFought
KellyFought Translation. Establishment put her out to pasture for playing nice.
Yeah, well, she’s kinda bad at it.
Good.
Congratulations and Marvelous as finally the 2020 ends and 2021 begins..just think she is 87 years young and must of us try to retire B4 661/2 if you can make it healthy that long,yes the BlackLivesMatter spin on Government will slowly change to the better and future...
_Politics She should after being compromised by having a Chinese spy as her driver. She should have stepped dowvwhen this was revealed. Plus she's and old fossel that should have retired at least 5 yrs ago. 🇺🇸
She had her day, but it’s time for her to be wheeled off into the sunset.
Good riddance
Liberals: the future is female. Also liberals: she said something nice about a Republican, burn the old bitch,
The Peaches are Gay
She is a Republican
TERMMMM LIMITSSSS
Finally
👏🏻 Good! Take care now.
_Politics Feinstein should step down and resign.
Kick rocks
Feinstein, Grassley, Hatch, McConnell..... should all retire. Congress needs term limits.
She is 87. I hear she wants to focus more on Wildfires.
_Politics It is so sad to see all the comments without regards to the excellent work Senator Feinstein has done over the years. The lack of respect for her is pretty deplorable.
Isn’t she like 100 year old?!! Maybe retire and spend time with family
Time to retire and oversee the $60M accumulated
Yes we have too many leaders that are too old but most people are missing a bigger point (which is not unusual). She was attacked and is stepping down because she was CIVIL and GRACIOUS. sad that these traits are no longer appreciated.
rspell34 retire? Only 87!
She should step down completely from congress.
Good!
GOOD
🙌🏽🙌🏽
That was was overdue! They should have an age limit for the senate and the house and let younger people represent the voters. These senators have been there for ever and completely lost touch.
Let’s be real. She’s “under fire” for not wearing the mask the other day + getting caught. If by “under 🔥” of course the excuse the far left is using to push her out
cool yeah AFTER her blithe senility allowed the republicans to fuck the court. a little late, senator. you're late on retiring too...
GREAT
Influential liberals? Meaning donors?
_Politics When will these OLD Senators please go home for good, I’m talking to you Mitch and Chuck
about time
She should just “ step down “ and let the governor replace her now 🔵
SarahBelleLin Good good good. And how about her disdain for Covid safety? NOT CUTE.
y
I juul
Good riddance SenFeinstein to bad rubbish. Now take Pelosi with you and SCRAM!
Things just not the same, without her... 'driver'?
Before you step down Sen. Feinstein I have a confession, once in the 8th grade I went in for a second kiss after she turned her head the first time. Just in case I want to be a Scotus Justice someday I am getting out ahead of your team of henchmen.
_Politics Without term limits - 10 terms in the house, 3 terms in the Senate is my preference - we are inevitably subject to gerontocracy.
Oh good. Hopefully, the Dems will make some better choices. Probably not tho
_Politics Good
About damn time
bye bye schweetie
THANK GOD
She's a conservative republican in sheep's clothing and out of touch with the realities of the modern world.
Too many people to comfortable in their power. All of the members of the Democratic party leadership need to take a look at themselves and make sure they are aligned with the voters. We need leaders who will stand up for Our values, not just go along, to get along. SenateDems
The good news keep on coming today!
Go home and stay there. You are failing the party
Put Whitehouse in the top slot. Anything else is madness. Leahy seems like a nice fellow, but we need sharpness and energy, as well as passion.
As a Democrat, I’m OK with this.
I would respectfully submit that many voters in California -- liberal, moderate and conservative Democrats -- have been patiently and respectfully hoping for years that Dianne Feinstein would retire.
I'm not a fan of term limits but I am greatly in favor of mandatory retirement. 87 is about 10 years too long. Congressional retirement should be mandatory after age 75. Congress will NEVER limit their own powers.
Thank you bye now
No kidding. God!
I'll be glad when our country is not run by senior citizens.
We need age and term limits in all branches of government.
good riddance she is mostly worthless
Durbin is one of the most reprobate people on earth.
Good riddance, vindictive poisonous old crone.
Shes a DINO . Its about time they kicked her.
Baby steps towards actual progress.
Good
I want to like this more than once!
This is the right decision SenFeinstein. Hand the baton off to the next generation.
Bipartisan outreach?! Oh, no. The nerve of some people!
I hope she just retires. She’s so out of touch
She is 87 years old, should consider retirement !!
RETIRE!!!
