Senator Dianne Feinstein’s career was filled with firsts, including first woman mayor of San Francisco and one of two of the first women elected to the U.S. Senate from California.

Sure, that’s what they said. But they also refused to allow Obama to appoint a SC Justice for a year. They will stonewall and not allow anyone to fill that seat. They will count on Dems doing the right thing when the time comes for them while refusing to do it when its their turn.
They very well might, but Biden has already had 3 years of appointing judges, and he’s already gotten probably the only Supreme Court appointment he’s going to get for this term. Refusing to let them replace Feinstein now gains them little - maybe a couple of extra unfilled district court slots - while if a Republican wins the White House and then Grassley dies in 2025/2026, the consequences for Republican judicial confirmations could be catastrophic.
