After the massacre in Las Vegas normal Americans thought it would be the perfect time to push for saner gun policies, not just banning bump stock devices (a ban opposed by the NRA)-- which have no other purpose but to turn legal semi-automatics into mass murder machines as they did in Las Vegas-- but to prevent dangerous and mentally
I had an idea Kevin de León was about to announce his candidacy for the U.S. Senate Dianne Feinstein had grown stale in when I saw he had hired the video team that made that awesome Randy Bryce video to do a shoot for him. And sure enough, he launched yesterday-- with the clip (above).
Past/future of CaliforniaRo Khanna (D-CA) was right this week when he wrote a Sacramento Bee OpEd calling for California voters to jettison Dianne Feinstein in 2018. Sadly, most California Democratic electeds privately agree with his reasoning and conclusion but have neither the integrity nor courage to say so in public.
A few months ago, conservative L.A. Democrat Adam Schiff, my congressman, was looking for operatives to help run his Senate campaign.

Russiagate has suffered arguably its biggest single setback so far following the admission of Senator Diane Feinstein, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, that following a briefing by the CIA and umpteen briefings by the FBI she has still seen no evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.
Feinstein’s admission was made in an interview with CNN. The relevant passage reads as follows

You know who has a really big mailing list? AARP. For starters, they have over 37,000,0000 members. But they add people to their mailing list even before they become members. Yesterday I got a mailing from them. Inside the envelope were three petitions, one to each California senator and one to Adam Schiff, my congressman. Other than the names, they were identical:
I was a close friend of Harvey Milk's when he was serving on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors with Dianne Feinstein. He was very progressive and she was very conservative. His intense dislike for her in our conversations in the back of his Castro Street camera shop colored my own feelings towards her.
