(4,775 posts)she might actually be a formidable opponent for the spy-masters. This woman is powerful. How powerful? I've lived in California pretty much all of my life, and can't recall a single person saying anything good about her. Yet she wins, every time. That's power. It makes no difference to her what we think of her, she wins anyway.
The irony is over the top, she's the NSA's best friend in the Senate, or certainly one of them.
Now that they've violated her personal space, grab some popcorn, two immoveable forces that never lose appear to be locking horns.
Things to watch for: a DiFi sex scandal, a half-assed attempt at reform that does little more than give assurances to Senators that they will not be spied on allowing DiFi to declare victory before continuing her profiteering form of public service, or she goes away quietly to spend more time with her "family". Ideally we'd get some real reform out of this, unlikely though.
