[Powerline Blog] Sen. Dianne Feinstein has departed this life at the age of 90. The California Democrat can be remembered in several ways, especially as the American politician most faithful to the People’s Republic of China.
In April of 2020, Missouri attorney general Eric Schmitt filed a lawsuit charging that Chinese Communist officials are "responsible for the enormous death, suffering, and economic losses they inflicted on the world, including Missourians." For Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the Missouri lawsuit was the problem.
"We launch a series of unknown events that could be very, very dangerous," said Feinstein in a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. "I think this is a huge mistake." The California Democrat had only praise for the Chinese government. |
