Senator Dianne Feinstein ‘seriously struggling' with cognitive decline: report
2020-12-11
[New York Post] WASHINGTON — Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the oldest member of the Senate at age 87 and the most senior Democrat on its powerful Judiciary Committee, is "seriously struggling" with cognitive decline, a new report says.

People familiar with the California lawmaker’s situation told the New Yorker on Wednesday that Feinstein’s short-term memory has grown so poor that she "often forgets she has been briefed on a topic, accusing her staff of failing to do so just after they have."

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has had several "painful" discussions with Feinstein about stepping aside, but the octogenarian reportedly soon forgets about their talks, forcing Schumer to confront her again, one source said.

"It was like Groundhog Day, but with the pain fresh each time," the source said.

Overtures were also reportedly made to Feinstein’s billionaire husband, Richard C. Blum.

#20  Biden will probably pardon Hunter and his brother, then step down because of sickness, etc and Kamala pardon him. It's not as if they can look any more crooked at this point, they might as well start twirling mustaches, wearing black hats, and kicking babies at this point.

#17  Better ask Willie Brown is Comma-La has any distinguishing birthmarks. My bet is on 666.

#16  /\ #14 When Chernenko assumed power his poor health was already very obvious. Brezhnev was gensec and paramount leader for 18 years.

Will Harris then try to play a reverse Gorbachev role, presiding over the collapse of freedom and the imposition of tyranny?

#15  ^^^ Just wait until Biden has "a cold".

#14  #12 All very Soviet, circa 1980's.

Heard tell that Russians now refer to Biden as "Brezhnev"

#13  Jimbo = Fredo

Hunny will be squirreled out of the country before he faces kiddie pr0n charges -- for a how-to, look at the way the Catholic Chirch recycled their Northern Hemispheric ped0 priests through third-world parishes. Maybe Belize or Panama for the Crackhead.

Biden will follow the path of the macabre children's ditty:
It's raining
it's pouring
the old Plugs is snoring
went to bed with a cold in his head
and he didn't get up in the morning

"Dr" Jill will end up with four sparkling mansions and her very own women's empowerment foundation a la Clinton Global Graft Inc

#11  /\ If he sees the Hunter investigation circling him at altitude, Plugs may resign for med reasons.

Harris likely to pardon Hunter while LE and media drop interest in Plugs out of sympathy. Brother James might not be so lucky.

#10  It is Schumer's entourage that is putting cognitive decline in political leaders on the legacy media's agenda.

This is a clear warning to Biden. He will get to be President for a couple of months and then he will resign for unspecified health reasons.

If not the Dem establishment will embarrass him publicly by exposing his deficiencies.

#9  Till Kavanaugh I just disagreed with her a lot. After that bachanalia, zero respect.
Posted by: TZSenator   2020-12-11 13:50  

#8  I think it's already started. Remember how Plugs said that if they ever disagree on anything he'll get some disease and need to resign? That was a slip...

OTOH He and Hunter would want to squeeze as much booty out of China, Iran, and some of our other enemies as they can before departure... Perhaps even get a private island somewhere... Is PedoIsland for sale?

#7  They let her run knowing this, and knowing it lets Newsom appoint someone who would be unelectable for SIX years. Democrats are truly evil people. But they are relentlessly working the system to gain perpetual power.and only ruthless solutions seem likely to curb that.
Posted by: NoMoreBS   2020-12-11 12:10  

#6  Oh boy! Now Newsom gets to appoint two new senators. A lot of people think he'll appoint himself. Well, at least that'd get him out of Sacramento and he couldn't be any worse than Feinstein or Harris.

#5  Our office pool is still trending 2nd quarter 2021, although you do have a very valid point Besoeker.

Not that you'll hear the CCP/Harris connection widely distributed.

The Hunter news lasted less than 24-hours in the MSM.

#4  Put me down for Joe's departure prior to July 4, 2021. Cannot see him holding up to the 'newly discovered' issues. And the MSM batboy doesn't have THAT many softballs to run out for the 'journalists' to pitch....

#3  /\ I figured Spring 2121 as well, but now with the Hunter laptop business and the potential for a Kam Harris connection, plugs may have to gut it out through 2021.

#2  Watch how they handle this for clues as to how & when Biden will be pushed to the curb. My money's on late spring of 2021

#1  It could be worse, she could have a son named Hunter.
