Did you hear her talk during the debate on adopting the rules? Respect to her, but she realllllly needs to have retired like 10 years ago.

Yeah, that's the problem with machines. Nobody wants to step in. Which is how people like Feinstein stay well beyond their prime.

She literally saved us during the Insurrection by telling everyone to stay home and let the MAGAts have their little Pity Party on Jan. 6th

The ONE thing they counted on for their TRAITOROUS plot that didn't materialize, was anyone from the city to oppose them so they could claim "Antifa and BLM" and declare Martial Law to name Trump Dictator Forever like his hero Putin.

That GOD and Muriel Bowser that shit didn't happen

She may be old but the other candidates were all considerably worse than her unfortunately.

I say this as someone who was looking for a different rep but all of the other candidates had kinda wacky platforms IIRC.

Her staff wasn‘t even in office or responding timely to cases because of Covid as late as last February at least. Had to get a family members’ rep to respond to an emergency (family stuck in Ukraine and needing asylum support and info ASAP). She needs to retire.
