^ The one person who should have been in that illustration above has died

Dianne Feinstein, whose three decades in the Senate made her the longest-serving female US senator in history, has died, according to a source familiar. She was 90.

Feinstein’s death will hand California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom the power to appoint a lawmaker to serve out the rest of Feinstein’s term, keeping the Democratic majority in the chamber through early January 2025. In March 2021, Newsom publicly said he had a list of “multiple” replacements and pledged to appoint a Black woman if Feinstein, a Democrat, were to retire.

How would Diane Feinstein be included in a caricature titled "Race for the Office?" I don't believe that Diane Feinstein ever became a Presidential candidate. She certainly never held a Capitol leadership position.

Because she is probably even more an emblem of the gerontocracy that is American Politics than Biden is. Biden may have dementia but it has been a few years DIFI has been physically and possibly mentally unwell to serve.

You seem to be talking about a larger topic than what the New Yorker cover is addressing.

Is the Master coming back with a vengeance?

There isn’t anyone to really challenge him. I’m willing to bet that he sits in the White House once again.

I doh know. At least 1 of those numerous indictments might stick and he would be found guilty. Or they get through with declaring him unfit for office with whatever clause in the Constitution dealing with insurrection.

Black and Gay...all she missing is being Trans for the trifecta of a perfect Democratic appointee!!

There must be something unconstitutional with stating long before a position is filled that it will be filled by a person of a particular sex and race though. Biden stated what his 1st SCOTUS pick would look like and Newsom always said he was picking a black woman if DIFI died.

There is no such restriction in the US Constitution. Beyond the election, how federal office vacancies are filled is completely under the purview of each state's constitution.

Seems a requirement to be a Senator is to live in the state you represent

It's official. The first US Speaker of the House to be removed.

Can't even govern themselves. Healthcare, education, debt ceiling/shutdown aversion etc but Gaetz whining about Hunter not getting subpoenas? lol

Nothing like watching the GOP tear themselves apart with the monster it created with the help of right-wing audience-capture media.

I thought it was racist to build a border wall?

Biden administration waives 26 federal laws to allow border wall construction

“There is presently an acute and immediate need to construct physical barriers and roads in the vicinity of the border of the United States in order to prevent unlawful entries into the United States in the project areas,” Alejandro Mayorkas, the DHS secretary, stated in the notice.

The democrat wall is ok

Did you know that the majority of USA News outlets publish 2nd hand news from the AP? And it's easy to leave out certain things because there is no clause forcing them to publish what was actually reported and quoted etc.? It actually says in the link at the top "Associated Press."

Well here is the original story I guess it could make more sense now?

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden on Thursday defended his administration’s decision to waive 26 federal laws in South Texas to allow for construction of roughly 20 miles of additional border wall, saying he had no choice but to use the Trump-era funding for the barrier to stop illegal migration from Mexico.

Asked if he thought such walls work, he said flatly, “No.”

The new construction was announced in June, but the funds were appropriated in 2019 before the Democratic president took office. Biden said he tried to get lawmakers to redirect the money but Congress refused, and the law requires the funding to be used as approved and the construction to be completed in 2023.

“The money was appropriated for the border wall,” Biden said. “I can’t stop that.”

[redmanjp]

The ABC article didn't have any connection with the AP article. And it also quoted the DHS reason for building the wall as numerous illegal migrants are coming in and overwhelming cities.

[redmanjp]

That's why they need to increase border patrol officers with guns to send them back over.

A few might try this but u not going to get 10000 in a day like when there I no barrier. Its a deterrant - just like any determined bandit cud break down yuh door eventually it doesn't mean u don't have one.

Mexicans are right to take back their stole lands

Just like the Venezuelans. "Embrace as they replace!"

[Dizzy28]

Mexicans are right to take back their stole lands

None of the lands you are referring to were states of the the Modern day country of Mexico. There are no western hemisphere countries that did not fall under someone else realm of control in the last 500 years.

[Dohplaydat]

A wall is like a mask bro, it reduces the chances of infection (by Mexicans).

[redmanjp]

the wall doesn't care where they originate from

[redmanjp]

some remote controlled or AI drones with weapons are in order then

[Dizzy28]

Lol!!!

Hamas have dem hot today.
For all their 'prowess' and 'capabilities' Israel military intelligence couldn't see this latest offensive coming?

What's funny to me is how western governments and media all jump up as one to 'unequivocally condemn the terrorist attcks by Hamas'. What is the difference between what Hamas is doing, and what the Ukrainians are doing?

I suppose, when yuh like to lick imperialist cacahole, everybody they don't like means it's your duty not to like dem too.
