120. Sen. Dianne Feinstein faces first calls to resign from members of Congress

It is surprising that Adam Schiff is calling for Biden to drop out given that he is running for former Senator Feinstein's open seat and she was allowed to remain in the Senate even though it caused a delay in the appointment of many judicial positions. Schiff did not call for Feinstein to step down, so why call for Biden to step down.

WASHINGTON — Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., faces calls to resign from fellow Democrats in Congress after a lengthy absence from the Senate due to health issues. Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., became the first member of Congress to call on Feinstein to resign late Wednesday afternoon.

"It’s time for @SenFeinstein to resign," he tweeted. "We need to put the country ahead of personal loyalty. While she has had a lifetime of public service, it is obvious she can no longer fulfill her duties. Not speaking out undermines our credibility as elected representatives of the people."

Khanna elaborated in a message to NBC News: "We have a crisis in the judiciary with extremist judges stripping away women’s rights. You can’t preach on television about the danger of these judges and then sit silently as Senator Feinstein misses vote after vote to confirm pro-choice judges."

"It’s time for California officials who care deeply about reproductive rights to call on her to step down at this moment in history," he said.
