NOBODY TOLD DIANNE?! Feinstein Seems Surprised That Her Staff Announced She's Retiring

This feels like when the McCallisters forgot Kevin in Home Alone…staffers sitting on a plane: DIANNE!

Folks, you have to let your Senator know.

According to a report from The Daily Wire, 89-year-old California Senator Dianne Feinstein seemed caught off guard by reporters asking about her recently announced retirement while she was on The Hill on Tuesday.

When asked about her decision to retire, Feinstein appeared confused by the question.

“I haven’t made that decision,” she told reporters. “I haven’t released anything.”

But she had released something —this, in fact:

“I am announcing today I will not run for reelection in 2024 but intend to accomplish as much for California as I can through the end of next year when my term ends,” Feinstein wrote on Twitter. “Even with a divided Congress, we can still pass bills that will improve lives.”

One of her staffers told her that they “put out the statement.”

“You put out the statement?” she reportedly responded. “I didn’t know they put it out.”

Well, they did. Pack some boxes, Dianne. Best of luck to you.
