The New Yorker reports that California Senator Dianne Feinstein is experiencing massive cognitive decline, which no doubt she is, but where’s the piece on Nancy Pelosi or Joe Biden? Those two have lost so many marbles they’re holding empty bags. Why would a lefty rag do an unflattering article on a democrat when the only purpose of the liberal media is to run interference for the democratic party? Obviously Feinstein has violated the party code and must be punished.
The New Yorker’s piece on Feinstein’s diminished mental capacity is convincing enough:
But many others familiar with Feinstein’s situation describe her as seriously struggling, and say it has been evident for several years. Speaking on background, and with respect for her accomplished career, they say her 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.
They describe Feinstein as forgetting what she has said and getting upset when she can’t keep up. One aide to another senator described what he called a “Kabuki” meeting in which Feinstein’s staff tried to steer her through a proposed piece of legislation that she protested was “just words” which “make no sense.”
Feinstein’s staff has said that sometimes she seems herself, and other times unreachable. “The staff is in such a bad position,” a former Senate aide who still has business in Congress said. “They have to defend her and make her seem normal.”
A stickler for detail, she demanded to see every page going out of her office with her name on it. But with her diminishing capacity, this has become increasingly difficult. The former Senate staffer who still works with Congress declared, “It’s been a disaster.”
There’s nothing here that anyone finds hard to believe. Feinstein has always been a kook and she’s only gotten worse in her advanced age. But again, why is the liberal media going after Feinstein’s cognitive decline when they try to hide the diminished mental capacity of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and make-believe president-elect Joe Biden?
The answer is within the New Yorker article. The left thinks Feinstein botched the Amy Comey Barrett nomination hearings and blame her for allowing a conservative Justice to replace Ruth Bader Ginsberg:
The internal criticism grew more intense this fall over Feinstein’s handling of Amy Coney Barrett. Feinstein had bungled a question about abortion during Barrett’s 2017 appeals-court confirmation hearing, provoking conservative indignation by casting it clumsily as a question about Barrett’s extreme religious beliefs. “Dogma and law are two different things,” Feinstein observed. “The dogma lives loudly in you—and that’s a concern.” The backlash over the question effectively indemnified Barrett from any further questions about how her faith affected her judicial rulings.
The Democrats’ strategy was to portray Barrett’s confirmation process as a travesty, jammed through the Senate in the final weeks before the Presidential election by hypocritical Republicans bent on using brute power to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg with her ideological polar opposite. The Democrats sought to fire up their voters by highlighting the illegitimacy of the process. But, to the Democrats’ dismay, Feinstein instead hugged the Republican chairman of the committee, Lindsey Graham, thanking him for his “fairness” and for running “one of the best set of hearings that I’ve participated in.”
The New Yorker also reports that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer forced Feinstein to step down as senior democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee. Sure, the democrats didn’t have the votes to stop ACB’s confirmation, but they have to blame somebody and it would be racist to point fingers at Barack Obama, who is responsible for the Republican majority in the Senate so they threw Feinstein under the bus.
As for the liberal media hit-piece on Feinstein, the New Yorker used last month’s Senate hearing with the big tech CEOs in which she asked Twitter’s Jack Dorsey the same exact question twice as evidence that her mind is gone. If that’s the threshold, where are the hit-pieces on Joe Biden’s diminished mental capacity? This is Crazy Joe just since the stolen election:
Biden Mispronounces Name Of Nominee For Cabinet Position That Doesn’t Exist
Joe Biden Says He Broke His Foot Running Naked Down An Alleyway After His Dog
Joe Biden Admits He’ll Resign To Make Kamala Harris President
Joe Biden Predicts 250,000 Will Die From COVID-19 This Month
There is no doubt of Dianne Feinstein’s cognitive decline, but it’s certainly no worse than Joe Biden’s. The only difference is, she’s a Senator of the minority party and he’s poised to become the leader of the most powerful nation in the world. If it’s alarming that Feinstein is losing it, it should scare the shit out of everyone that Biden is too and yet the fake news industry continues to ignore his scrambled brains.
