Feinstein is one of the worst people in the Senate on civil liberties issues, and one of the foremost advocates of the national security state.

Ugh, I think I voted for her. :-( When is she up for reelection?
2018. But it's exceedingly unlikely that she has a realistic challenger in either the primary or the general elections.
She'll be 85 in 2018. There's a decent chance she'll retire.
My pennies are on California AG Kamala Harris being groomed for the same role and purpose.
There's a decent chance she'll die before then (of old age). Even better.
At least you're honest.

:)

Feinstein's constituency is Silicon Valley. And while we know all about the Google/Facebook/Apple/Y-Combinator silicon valley, there's also that other Silicon Valley.
