Sen Dianne Feinstein files to run again at age 91; sparks reaction nearly everyone agrees on
January 13, 2021 | Robert Jonathan
Liberals apparently have gained a sudden appreciation for term limits upon the news that U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein has reportedly filed initial paperwork to run for reelection in 2024.
The oldest sitting U.S. Senator, Feinstein would be 91 when 2024 rolls around. If she won a primary (which is sure to be contested) and the general election in the deep blue state, she would be 97 at the end of the term. Although age discrimination is illegal under federal state civil rights law, the left appears intent on replacing the so-called moderate senator — who supports impeaching President Trump — with a full-on progressive, sooner rather than later.
Democrats already pressured Feinstein to step down as a ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee after her relatively polite treatment of Judge (now Justice) Amy Coney Barrett and praising committee chair Lindsey Graham for the way he handled the nomination hearings and even hugging him. Shortly thereafter, the left ramped-up calls for her to immediately step down from Congress altogether because of alleged cognitive decline.
