Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.It's shameful that the Republicans refused to allow her to retire. Her death means that the Senate Judiciary Committee will no longer be able to confirm Federal judges.
I hope Mitch McConnell drops dead while speaking at a microphone. He really deserves it.

I'm sure Feinstein did some good things in her career, but she has obstructed a lot of progressive legislation too. While she was certainly better than any Republican, good riddance.

Her replacement will only be an interim position.
@Organist1 her replacement will not be permitted to sit on the Senate Judiciary Committee because Republicons have already announced that they won't permit a substitution.
@BitFlipper There are some things about how shit gets done that REALLY need to change!!
I didn’t know much about her though this is NOT a flattering take:

@BitFlipper It's not like she had to stay in the Senate so long the Democrats could get check-mated into this position. For fuck's sake, she was near retirement age when she joined the Senate over 30 years ago.
This is exactly how RBG took her life's work and flushed it down the toilet.
