Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.) on the Senate floor made a similar case, saying, “Never, not once have we allowed temporary substitutes on committees and now is not the time to start.” He added that he hopes Feinstein recovers and comes back soon, but “Republicans are not going to … bail out Sen. Schumer or the Biden administration’s most controversial nominees.”

Some few found stones. Long term effects from short term actions.

It’s weird how the Dung Beetle Party kept Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg on life support for years but want Feinstein tossed out on her ass. I wonder what Feinstein did to bring down the wrath of the Dung Beetle Party on herself.

The RATs don’t seem concerned about wheeling Fetterman into the Senate every day on a gurney. Probably because he’s a man and Feinstein is an old lady.

Without unanimous consent, it will take 60 votes in the Senate to replace Feinstein on the Committee. Repulicans are saying the way Dems want to do it, has never been done before. Dems are glossing over the unusual procedure and saying “it’s only fair”. I hope Republicans hold firm and we get to see Dems crying bitter tears.

Feinstein was often attacked from the Left in California. She was smeared as too Republican when she was rather moderate in her voting record. This was back in the day when radical Barbara Boxer was other Senator.

I always get slightly ill when some republican twit spews something like “deep respect” or “my good friend” for a Democrat. Frankenstein is a POS.

This must have been deemed a safe position to take for them to be willing to do it.

When even John Cornyn takes a firm position, it is clear the Dems have pushed their limits.
