Democrat California Sen. Dianne Feinstein appeared unaware of her own retirement announcement Tuesday, telling a group of reporters at the Capitol that she hadn't made a decision on her future despite announcing just hours before that she would not be seeking reelection in 2024.

According to multiple reports, a Feinstein staffer quickly notified the senator that a statement had already been made on her retirement, prompting her to say she was unaware the information had been released.

Reporters present for the interaction quickly took to Twitter to report on Feinstein's apparent confusion.

"Asked by reporters about her announcement to resign, [Feinstein] says 'If I haven't made that decision, I haven't released anything.' A staffer then told the senator that a statement had been released. Feinstein responded saying ‘I didn’t know they put it out,’" one reporter wrote, later clarifying he meant "retire" instead of "resign."

"Feinstein on her retirement: 'I haven’t made that decision. I haven't released anything.' Staffer: ‘We put out the statement.’ Feinstein: 'You put out the statement? I didn't know they put it out,'" another wrote.

I wonder if the Chicoms are involved in her retirement. She may not, mentally, be able to provide as much intel as before.

Years ago she was the Chair of the Senate Intel and other Committees. She was caught providing info for $$$, and directing contract $$$ to herself and her husband. As with all democRATS, she was not forced to resign. She lost the Chair, but she continued on the committee, continued to have access and, no doubt, shared it with our enemies. Without a conscience or a soul, all kinds of evil is possible.

We are being run by senile oldsters that aren’t even aware of why they are there to begin with. Makes one wonder who is making the decisions behind the curtain.

Feinstein: Why didn’t one of you idiots inform me of the resignation? Keeping me in the dark isn’t good for your career paths.

Your second sentence negates the first. We're not run by oldsters. They're just window dressing.

Constitutionally we are being governed by the elected officials. They are making the votes of record.

I’m not wondering, since it all fits right into the eight
years worth of policies brought to us by the Halfrican.
