Dianne Feinstein Forgets Three-Month Hospital Stay, Claims She Was in DC Voting the Whole Time

Originally published via Armageddon Prose Substack:

As reported recently, Sen. Diane Feinstein’s corpse has been triumphantly wheeled back into the Senate following a sketchily detailed months-long battle with “shingles,” which we now know was complicated by brain encephalitis, escorted proudly by Sen. Chuck Schumer.

Her handlers claim that the 89-year-old is “feeling much better” and ready to get to the people’s business.

It hasn’t been going well.

Via The Guardian:

“A bizarre exchange with reporters has raised new questions about the return of Dianne Feinstein, California’s senior senator who has been absent from Washington for months due to shingles.

Jim Newell, a reporter for Slate, ran into Feinstein shortly after the 89-year-old lawmaker voted on the Senate floor on Tuesday. When he and another journalist asked Feinstein how she has been received by her colleagues since returning to Washington, Feinstein appeared to insist that she had never left.”

A Slate reporter chronicled her recent interaction with the Senator, whose aides reportedly wheel her to and fro through the least-populated corridors and skip any events outside of the chambers like luncheons,

Via Slate (emphasis added):

“ I encountered Feinstein coming off an elevator, sitting in a wheelchair and flanked by staff….

I asked her how she was feeling.

“Oh, I’m feeling fine. I have a problem with the leg.” A fellow reporter staking out the elevator asked what was wrong with the leg.

“Well, nothing that’s anyone concern but mine,” she said.

When the fellow reporter asked her what the response from her colleagues had been like since her return, though, the conversation took an odd turn.

“No, I haven’t been gone,” she said.

OK.

“You should follow the—I haven’t been gone. I’ve been working.”

When asked whether she meant that she’d been working from home, she turned feisty.

“No, I’ve been here. I’ve been voting,” she said. “Please. You either know or don’t know.””

It’s unclear what the endgame exactly is here for the Democrat Party. They appear to be going full-steam ahead with the Weekend at Bernie‘s strategy to prop her up in her committee chair, have her performatively cast the votes as required, and then escort her off-stage as quickly as possible. They believe, perhaps, that the compliant corporate media largely won’t kick up too much of a fuss about having a half-dead corpse pose as a Senator.

But unless they just lock down the entire press corps, images and accounts like the one above are going to continue to leak out and the rouse will become clearer and clearer.

Do they simply not care what voters think? Are the other aged Swamp creatures like Pelosi worried about setting the precedent that demented puppets can and should be administratively removed?
