i want her and McConnell to bump into each other in the cafeteria and all their bones clatter to the ground while xylophone music plays

I'd love to see her kick it on the floor. I can imagine MSNBC doing God's work for the dems by creating misdirection, clutching their pearls, and saying...

"This is a sad and unformatted day. A senator has died on the senate floor. And if you like them or not - you should not be making fun of death on social media and in tweets."

"It is a truly sad day when it's clear that Americans will belittle anything or anyone at any time. Even at this tragic time..."

And their outrage continues all the way to the commercial break so they can entirely avoid the "g word".

To be fair, if we're going to talk averages, the average in the US senate is still lower than that at ~65, and life expectancies have gone up. But yeah, US leaders are similarly ancient

As has already been pointed out, the US senate average is still (a little) lower, but anyway for reference Brezhnev was 75 when he died as leader, Andropov died at 69, and Chernenko at 73

It's like Midsommar they are the 2 elders of the tribe that have been chosen to figuratively jump off a cliff and get their heads crushed with a mallet

gravity was the first anarchist. no hierarchy can stand against it forever.

You know it's telling when even r/politics thinks a dem needs to get the boot

She's going to a nice farm up state. Lots of room to run around. She'll like it there.

Seriously, though, I know elder abuse and outright abandonment are huge, huge problems but there has to be some humane and dignified way of helping people die before they get to this state. I'm terrified of ending up in some state of permanent cognitive impairment where I'm too broken to function but still cognizant to realize what's happened to me. Like fuck Feinstein, but... like puppeting her around like this is so disgusting and depraved. That's a human being and they're using her as, I don't even know, a puppet? Just an object to be pushed around and ordered to make the right noises. God that's a horrific fate.

Like say what you will about capitalists, but a lot of the time there's nothing we could do to them that isn't worse than the things they do to themselves and each other.

ONE! Something's wrong with her TWO! something's wrong with her THREE! Something's wrong with her FOUR! Something's wrong with her

Anchor: "Mike, why aren't you in the Senate chamber?"

Reporter: "There was an issue that needed to be addressed."

Anchor: "An issue? What's the status of the vote?"

Reporter: "It's been interrupted by Senator Feinstein's absence."

Anchor: "But diaper changes are done on the Senate floor."

Reporter: "That's true. But the issue was that the senator had a temper tantrum and well... um... There's no easy way to say this - she threw her feces."

Anchor: "I see."

I hope they train ChatGPT on her writings and recordings so that her ghost can be our Senator for the rest of this country's existence.

The year is 2055. Dianne Feinstein's mummy has been hospitalized after her jaw fell off and needed to be rewired.

Congressional Geriatric Diaper Changer is a job that still pays more than what you and I make in a year combined
