It needs to be called out just how weird it is that US Senators like this don’t understand the very document they have sworn to uphold.

The bar has been lowered so much that I wouldn’t be surpised to learn that some of them couldn’t even read.

I don’t think Diane Feinstein could really even comprehend anything at the end.

We should be careful about language like “can’t read,” when discussing taking away rights though. There are blind people who literally “can’t read,” but can comprehend information in an equivalent format and who’d be much more competent than someone like Feinstein.

At this point I’m almost for requiring at least some sort of legal degree for these positions.

Yeah I agree. That’s why I said almost.
They should at least know about the constitution though.

a LOT of the people most important to governing within the constitution, enforcing it, and specifically hired to protect your rights granted by it, know little, to nothing, about it
