Feinstein certainly needs to be replaced.

She's definitely going to retire. I don't think Schiff would have done this unless there was a 99% chance she would.

yes, but having Katie Porter and Adam Schiff go for the same seat is begging for trouble

She's spent her entire career being willing to step up when needed. But now, it's time for her to step back.

Certainly, but I’m not sure Adam Schiff would be much of an improvement. Katie Porter has also announced she intends to run for it and I would prefer her instead. Although, I do wonder about her seat, since she flipped a red district when she won. Adams is solidly blue.

katie porter and schiff are both good leaders. It’s going to be an interesting campaign.

He needs to step aside and let Katy Porter take that seat. There’s something happening in the DNC as this would normally not be allowed.

Porter is the better candidate. Aching is just establishment.

They're going to sit and watch everybody run against her for a year before they make a decision? Strange.

I think she retires. 2024 is too late to launch a bid for senate and the other candidates will already have had over a year headstart of campaigning + fundraising.

Which is an announcement in and of itself. That’s evidence of retirement.

She only has something like 10k in her re-election finance account. If she were going to run again she’d need to start now to build up her campaign. The fact she’s not is saying is everything you need to know.

when she remembers what year it is
