“Feinstein has already stumbled once in tangling w/Amy Coney Barrett. At a 2017 hearing for an appeals court seat, Feinstein told Barrett that “the dogma lives loudly within you” — a remark that instantly seized upon as anti-Catholic bias by Republicans.” https://t.co/CquOEpvOFy

FEINSTEIN on ending filibuster and expanding SCOTUS: “I don't believe in doing that. I think the filibuster serves a purpose. It is not often used, it's often less used now than when I first came, and I think it's part of the Senate that differentiates itself.” ht @DanielPFlatley
