Heartbreak for Chuck Schumer as Senate GOP Follows Through With Blocking 'Feinstein Plan'
Red State ^ | 4/18/23 | Sister Toldjah

As RedState previously reported, a number of prominent Senate Republicans including some of the more moderate ones like Sens. Susan Collins (Maine) and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) indicated in no uncertain terms that they would not support any proposal on the Democratic side to put a temporary replacement on the Senate Judiciary Committee while Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) continues her longer-than-expected recovery from the shingles virus.

In an update to this story, we’re happy to let readers know that the Senate GOP, led – surprisingly enough – by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), indeed followed through with their promise to block Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), who put forth a resolution earlier calling on his Senate colleagues to allow another Senator – Maryland’s Ben Cardin – to temporarily sit in Feinstein’s place on the committee:

False headline.

Schumer has no heart.

Most people simply do not want to give up that kind of power.

Which makes George Washington an incredible person, just on this point alone.

Maybe Dems will give Feinstein some of Biden’s secret drugs.

Gosh. Difi’s out of commission. So there goes the Dem majority for the time being. Have they accused the Republicans of “exploiting” Difi’s illness yet? Please say yes.

Hey! Fetterman's back in the Senate! And he's dressed for the part!

I'm sure he'd be glad to step up to the plate and represent both Pennsylvania AND California! It makes sense to him, so whaddya you say, Chuckie?

Schumer will only promise to give Republicans what they want and then renege after Republicans give Schumer what he wants.

Good deal Chuck Schumer needs a few kick in the nuts to get his brain dislodged from his ass.

Don’t be too hard on Feinstein. She functions just as well as Pennsylvania’s Moron and Imbecile representing them in the U.S. Senate.

Fetterman is the deep state's way of mocking us that they can elected anybody or anything.
