Editorial: Newsom should pave the way for Feinstein resignation

Published Sat, 15 Feb 2025 22:52:50 GMT

Gov. Gavin Newsom should pave the way so Dianne Feinstein can make a graceful exit from the U.S. Senate.For the good of the country, for the good of the state’s representation in Congress, for peace within the Democratic Party, Newsom should promise to appoint a caretaker — someone who will not seek election next year — if Feinstein steps down now. And the senator should resign.The stakes are too great for this stalemate to continue. With Democrats barely having the numbers to control the Senate, with President Biden’s judicial nominees stalled because of Feinstein’s absence from the deadlocked Judiciary Committee, and with a partisan fight over raising the debt-ceiling fast approaching, California needs full representation in the upper chamber of Congress.First elected in 1992, Feinstein, 89, is California’s longest-serving U.S. senator. For years there have been mounting questions about her declining mental acuity. But she had shown up for votes. Until this year....

Draymond Green is suspended for the biggest game of the Warriors’ title defense so far, Game 3 of their first-round playoff series against the Kings.The NBA handed down the suspension late Tuesday night, about 24 hours after Green stepped on the chest of Sacramento center Domantas Sabonis, who had grabbed Green’s foot after falling during box-out.“I’m disgusted with the NBA this morning,” Stephen A. Smith said Wednesday on First Take. “I’m sick and tired of everybody acting like this is just another game. It’s not just another game, it’s a playoff game. You got to do something far more flagrant than this to get suspended.”The league, in its statement announcing the suspension, cited Green’s “history of unsportsmanlike acts”. NBA head of basketball operations Joe Dumars told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski Wednesday morning: “Here’s what it came down to: excessive and over-the-top actions, condu...

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's Andrea "Annie" Kritcher has been named to Time magazine's TIME100 list of the 100 most influential people in the world.

Kritcher leads the integrated modeling team within LLNL's Inertial Confinement Fusion program and oversees the integ...

There’s action everywhere around them, including a crane in the distance bringing down loads of heavy materials. When Mansfield lost her mother more than 10 years ago, she realized it was time to make a choice that would build her future — and, now, she thanks the Golden State Warriors for supporting her through a major career change.“I knew I was going to be an entrepreneur, I’ve had dreams of a two-piece suit and a briefcase for years,” said Mansfield, who typically oversees the operation from her office. “I was just looking at all the construction going up, and we clean well, but I never knew the business of con...
